Going to Vancouver, suggestions?

Going to Vancouver next weekend, going for 5 days just to get away. . .also to watch the Sharks play the Canucks!

I heard Victoria island is a must, Whistler is a fun drive, and the aquarium is nice. Was just wondering whose been there and what you'd suggest is a MUST see or do.

Declare any firearms at the boarder. They can issue you a temp travel permit.

Or go here.
Bringing Firearms Into Canada
For more info. Oh and if you happen to stop off a a longs, or safeway. I need some vicodin.

I'd just bring lots of gigs of photo space. That whole area is off the hook.

Bring a full size spare that is a long drive bud. Have fun and like old.guy said lots of pics. I have always wanted to get up that far north. Oh and don't forget to say what up to Bob and Doug McKenzie.

Oh we're flying, driving would be fun but might as well get the most time possible out there.
