"I live in Vancouver and would like to know what the "Giggle Dam Theater" is"

 

Me too - never heard of it

 

Seattle cruise lover - the trip to the Sunshine coast is only 40 minutes from Horseshoe Bay and you only pay one way - while the other two ferry rides are about 90 - 100 minutes and you pay both ways.

 

Cheers

Thanks for all of your ideas. I can't wait for our trip!!

 

The Giggle Dam Theater is at www.giggledam.com

and after looking at a map, it may be too far to go.

 

It's in Port Coquitlam which is not that far but to be honest I don't know if it's really on the list of Vancouver's top attractions.

 

You might want to google the River Rock Casino or the Red Robinson Theatre as they get top acts and you would see who's in town the days you are here.

What an amazing trip...

 

Thank you to all the advice you give me we had a wonderful time.

 

Special thanks to Dennis and Karen, who are very helpful :)

I really enjoy Vancouver and Seattle.

 

Just as a small part of review...

 

Vancouver we visit The groose Mountain, Capilano suspension bridge, stanley park, granville island, Canada place, the Vancouver aquarium, of course Chinatown Robson st, and Gastown.

My conclusion I will go back and visit again Love the city, all the people are so kind. The weather was heavy rain thank for the advice about the umbrella;).

 

Seattle: We visit the Seattle aquarium, the space needle, take a argosy boat tour (Now they only have one departure time 1:30pm), We visit the harbor, the public market, the Imax, and also take a Vine tour. Great experience. Mhh just thinking in a Clam chowder in the harbor and make me want to come back to Seattle again:D.

 

I will post more detailed experience later after I finish all the accumulated work after vacations.:(

 

Again I really appreciate all your advice. We had an amazing time.:)

Joseph - glad you had a great trip and was happy to be able to help you with your trip planning.

 

Too bad you aren't here right now - its' sunny and clear and the mountains are spectacular with all the snow that they have been having.

 

Cheers

I also would like to know what Josephml1 finally did on his trip to Seattle and Vancouver. I read all the posts and got tired of "Just one more question". Was Joseph cruising? How much time did he have in these ports? I am anxious to hear what he did and where he went.

He listed many of the places that he visited during his stay - please remember that English is not Joseph's first language so if his posts are awkward to follow at times that is the reason.

 

There are no cruises operating that this time of year out of Vancouver or Seattle - if you have been following the posts you will know that he was spending two or three days in Vancouver and Seattle each before heading for Portland Oregon where he has some relatives.

 

I never find just one more questions too many to ask and answer especially if you haven't been to the area before. When I am visiting a new area like I did last year to Boston and NYC I was happy that there were lots of people willing to provide me with information.

 

Have a nice day

 

Cheers

Thank you Dennis as always you are very kind and helpful.

I am trying my best to improve my English. Is my third language. First is Spanish.

 

If you come in a near future to this locations: Mexico city, the Mexican Riviera, Cozumel, Cancun, Los Angeles and Las Vegas. I am an expert in this area and I am willing to help.;)
