For those of you who have never been to Vancouver I highly recommend it! What a wonderful, beautiful place. I had gone up to Vancouver right after WPPI for a hockey tournament. Besides the fact that the Canadians kicked our butts, I had a great time. And for the record our team did beat the other team from Seattle... EVEN though Vancouver is a mere 200 miles north of Seattle, it feels more like Europe. The first thing you notice after clearing customs is that virtually all of the taxi cabs are hybrids. Eat your heart out Al,, Vancouver is pretty darn green. The second thing you'll notice on your highly efficient cab ride in to the downtown area is the city buses are running on electric wires.
Let's take a moment to appreciate what else surrounds this town; a temperate rain forest, fantastic skiing, and more fishing than I could do in a lifetime. We visited the Capilano suspension bridge on our last day in Vancouver and wow was it amazing. Here are a couple pics..
