Hi, my friend and I arrive there on the 23rd. But the first few nights we are staying at a hotel near Stanley Park rather then the Sandman. Om the 24th I want to try and go up to Grouse Mountain in the afternoon until sunset, on the 25th we will probably do a day whale watching and on the 26th mabe go to Stanley Park and the aquarium. Nothing is set as solid yet thou. What we dont get done before tour we will try to do afer but you are welcome to come with us.

I think we are on the la scene tour with you also.

My email is mambo202_2000@hotmail.com. I'm on facebook and myspace if you want to add me. I use facebook a lot more.

You might have noticed they have a facebook group for this trip too already if you want to join that. The link I think is on one of the first few pages of the forum

Hey!

I'm so jealous that you guys are touching down earlier. It's at the end of exam period for me so my friend and I had to take a late flight, sucks, but what better way to celebrate the end of mid-year exams than going on a trip to Canada? I can't wait!

My email is manfy@hotmail.com if you would like to add me on facebook. I do have myspace but I rarely go on it.

Samantha.

Hey fellow travellers. I'm heading on this tour as well and look forward to meeting everyone.
My bro wimped out, so I'll be doing this one solo. I'm from Canada(ontario) and this will be my first time out west, can't wait.
I arrive a day early and am staying at the hotel where the tour leaves from. Can't think of the hotel name right now.

27 days and counting.

Hi guys! Times getting closer getting excited, but nervous to. I don't get in to Vancouver till late evening on the 24th. I've been looking at a few different things to do in the first couple of days in Vancouver. Vancouver trolley tours looks like a good idea, just waiting on brochures to be sent they do an evening tour to the suspension bridge and grouse mountain as well as trolley tour to get around during the day. I really want to go whale watching as well Price of Whales do good tours by the look of things, They go from Vancouver to Vancouver Island/Victoria as well as whale watching. These are just a few things I've looked at nothing set yet though, It's getting a bit confusing cause i want to do everything

Hi All....

Oli, I will be getting in around the same time as you....I think it's about 4.30pm but I just had a schedule change on my flights and didn't get a chance today to check what the difference is. Let me know if you want to meet at the airport and we can share a taxi to the hotel.... After a long flight I want the easiest posible way to the hotel...which I'm thinking is a taxi!

Not long to go now!

Cheers Jess

Hi Jess,

If you're arriving around 4:30, sharing a taxi would be great. Luckily I'll have got my long flight out of the way before Thursday as I'm going to Seattle a few days beforehand.
