Vancouver is nice.

If you want to visit me, drive 12 hours east on the trans canada highway.

fun things to do in vancouver that isn't tourist stuff? the city is huge. it has pretty much everything you would think a big city would have.

you could go sailing or boating or go down to stanley park...but i guess those things are touristy.

i think they haev the global fest thing every year with fireworks from tons of different countries. i saw that one year and it was amazing. not sure when that is on though. might be in august.

there's seaworld or whatever its called which is cool too.

if you go into richmond you can ask my uncle for a ride in his corvette.

Yeah. This morning when I went out to the ice flow to get a bucket of water I couldn't chip through the ice to the water below. Suffice it to say, when I got back to the igloo Iluak, my grandfather, was none too pleased.

hmm thought there was still snow up there.. if not I can always go fly fishing, ATVing through the mountains, endless list,

ninty · 07-10-2005, 12:26 AM

theres still snow in the mountians, but its on the peaks of the mountians. you can't really ski there.

all the ski resorts close in april. some of them turn into golf courses and mountain biking courses and such for the summer, but you definitely can't ski all year round here. even if there was snow they wouldn't let you because its so warm out, it would probably just cause an avalanche.

and stammer, no its not really cold up here. last week here in calgary it was 30C all week long which is 86F.

geRV · 07-10-2005, 12:28 AM

Hire an ATV and go mountain goat fucking. dance:
