Alright this summer I am going to Vancouver in August. Is there any members that live there or around there? What is it like there? I heard it's nice out there. NO SNOW IN THE WINTER well mostly.

Funny you should mention this as I got a postcard from Vancouver yesterday from my parents who are in Canada on holiday travelling from the west to east by train. I also have a couple of friends in Vancouver. I really want to go there someday.

My girlfriend now lives in Vancouver although I live 8 hours away in central BC. It can be a fun city as long as you stay outta the bad parts. Gas Town and China Town are two of the best places to visit!

Do a search in google using "Gas Town" and "Vancouver" and you'll see what I mean. It was the original part of Vancouver before it was a city. There are alot of old buildings, shops, and different things to see.

I only have a one story igloo but my dog sled is faster than your dog sled and I bet my pet penguin could kick your penguin's ass! Hey do you know Fred from Canada?
