Seattle/BC Summary

An exciting and packed trip. Seattle is a very beautiful place, best to visit late July-early August. Vancouver is a very clean and busy place. Whistler village is a small bustling community serving tourists primarily. Victoria & Sidney are very pretty places - no wonder it is called the Garden City. Vancouver Island is huge, we managed to only see a tiny portion of it. Their ferry system is awesome.

Vancouver Island: Vancouver Island is huge, we saw only a tiny part of it. Speaking with the locals, the remaining places are supposed to be more scenic and serene.
