Clear Sunday, cool air — music and food are the moves.
Fresh morning in Vancity: pick your vibe tonight, watch the transit detours Monday, and catch up on what went down this week.
5 degrees and clear skies — you'll want a layer, but the sun's out until 6:17 PM, so there's good daylight for whatever you've got planned. UV's moderate at 3.0, so you're good without going overboard on the SPF.
Heads up for tomorrow: the 16 bus is getting rerouted Monday evening from 6 PM through Tuesday 6:30 AM. If you're usually on 29th Ave or the Arbutus run, you'll be taking a shuttle bus from 63rd Loop while construction wraps up on Granville. Nothing hitting you today, but worth clocking for your week ahead.
Few things worth knowing. Pete Fry got elected as Canada's first Green Party mayor — that's Vancity's call this week. And if you've got a Save-On-Foods More Rewards card, they've flagged a database breach affecting thousands of members, so might be worth changing your password if you're in that system.
On the food front, there's some serious happenings. Main Street's Torafuku is hosting a one-night reunion of Le Tigre and Toki Doki doing Japanese street food — if you're into that, worth timing a dinner run. Baan Lao over on the Drive just got named best restaurant in North America at the World Culinary Awards, which is pretty wild. And if you're after a martini bar with Spanish-Cuban cooking, The Moon just opened in Gastown with Felix Maristany behind it.
Tonight's the night if music's calling. Vancouver Symphony's doing Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto at Bell Centre at 4 PM — elegant Sunday move if you want something classical. Later on, UB40 is at the Commodore at 7 PM if reggae's more your speed. There's also gnash at The Pearl at 7 if you're leaning electronic, or Plum Valley Idol Festival Vol.1 at Fortune Sound Club at 6 PM for something different. Pick your vibe and go.
If you're not an evening-out person, the clear skies mean parks and brewery runs work today — just bring a sweater. Sunday's yours to shape.
Cheers.
