Hoping to go to Vancouver for the tour. Taking my youngest son to the shows, but the whole family is coming.

I know nothing about Vancouver except it looks pretty. I do think I’m going to fly to Seattle and rent a car because I’d rather drive a bit than have insane connections like Dallas (to Minneapolis- why?) or Denver (my least favorite airport in the world). So….

Arrive in Seattle Thursday night. Friday I’d like to either go to Rainer or maybe Olympic and drive down the coast as far as Astoria. Any advice?

We’ll head to Vancouver for 3 days from there. Where should we stay, eat, go? We’ll have a full day between shows and the day of the second show to explore.

They’re different days, and I’m from the Midwest. We drive to everything. I’m not going to pass up an opportunity to see a great national park because it’s a few hours in a car. I thought Ranier was less than 2 away. If I went the other way, I understand going as far as Astoria is more of a hike, but that drive might be part of the fun. I love the ocean and live about as far from it as you can.

I did not know commercial flights went anywhere near the earth’s poles. You can fly from Santiago, Chile to Sydney, Australia in 14 hours by passing very close to the coast of Antarctica. There’s a flight from Seattle to Dubai that flies over the North Pole.

Just seems like it’d be dangerous, especially if a plane went down. Not a ton of assets n the areas. But I guess minimizing jet fuel and time trumps all.

If you are near the King's Cross area, check out the Wilmington Pub. In Clerkenwell. Cool area with some pedestrian streets nearby, but they have a really good Scotch Egg there.
