Learn about the talented and diverse First Nations people from the area. Take the guided tour - it's really worthwhile. Another beautiful building, and this one is a very short walk from our place.

A great rainy day activity - particularly if you're here with small children. This is a gem of a building, that invites relaxing away from the frenzy of the village.

Essentials
I find this the easiest grocery store for parking, a good selection, and reasonably prices. There's also a liquor store and pharmacy across the plaza.

Shopping
Lots of cute clothes, shoes, art and ceramics by local and not-so-local artists. This a nice break from the chains that populate the village stroll.

Getting Around
Take the FREE #5 shuttle into the village (or back home, if you don't want to walk up the hill). The covered stop is right outside our building, just a few meters down the hill. Or pick it up at the main bus loop in the Village, just up the stairs from the Blackcomb Gondola. No problem bringing your skis or board on the bus. It runs about every 15 or 20 minutes.
