We are going to see AC/DC there Friday night and we decided to make a long weekend and are spending 3 days. What's going on in Vancouver? We've never been before. What are the "not to miss" attractions or events? A friend said we should see the aquarium, but I don't know about that. Where is the best pizza in Vancouver? How about the breakfasts? Everyone knows how I feel about the bacon! Tell me about Vancouver!

They have a great mall, a fantastic aquarium. Try to go to tea in a fancy hotel. Have a great time. Plan for a long wait at the border.

Now I'm getting excited to go. I'm not a big AC/DC fan, but hubby doesn't miss them when they tour so the extra fun stuff makes it worth the drive.

I was kinda bummed about going because I would rather stay home with the puppy and the turkey leftovers, but now I'm getting excited about going! Oh.. and how hard is it to find some good pot while we are there?

Try to get to Granville Island, too. I think you would like it there. but DO NOT go for a walk down East Hastings.
