If it is a sunny day the Stanley Park seawall (that part of it that is open) would be nice, and there are lots of good places to eat near the south end of the Stanley Park seawall on Denman street. A cab from the airport to there is 30 bucks.
Just read this morning that the Seawall is opening in a week or two. A large part of it was closed when a strong wind storm knocked down many trees.
