Story narrative of family trip is well done. Gives us seniors a loving feeling of what we can achieve when we do the trip this summer (08). Lots of good suggestions.

I am planning a vacation to Vancouver for 2 families in June. Was gonna just fly to Vancouver from LA, but then considered the possibility of driving from SEATAC as I read the route is easy and scenic, other than the wait at the US-Canada border. Although I am still contemplating my decision, your travelogue certainly gave me some insights and ideas as to what to do while in Vancouver.

I am planning a vacation to Whistler and Vancouver. Is it worthwhile to fly to Seattle and drive to those areas?
