Vancouver

I am going to Vancouver (from Hong Kong) for a family wedding and am bringing a watch and a piece of jewelry as gifts. Will I have to pay customs at the airport... in which case, could it be cheaper to buy these gifts after I arrive?

I know that you can't find a greener place anywhere than there; just imagine the green lands ranging from British Columbia to the Evergreen State of Washington, passing by the shiny green coastal line of Oregon till the Redwood Forests of Northern California! Wow!

Also this region must be the cleanest part of earth; both in the streets and buildings, and climatically. The weather is very moderate throughout the whole year, and the people are educated, religiously tolerant (even it has the highest percentages of atheists, agnostics, homo's, bi's, etc).

We must not forget the civillized people and their physical fitness too!

However, I never knew what this region actually lacks: Are the universities there that good? What about the restaurants and places of entertainment? Do people there wish moving to places like NYC, LA, Chicago, Toronto and Montreal? What is it that you miss and you can't find in the Pacific Northwest?

Thinking about moving there. I'm from So Cal.

We plan to take one of the cruises from Vancouver to Alaska. Coming from the east coast of the US, we are thinking of taking the train to Seattle, WA and then the bus to Vancouver. I suspect this dumps you in the middle of town, so what's the best way to get to the boats? About how far is it and how much would it cost by either mass transport or taxi?

Hopefully withought the miles of rainfall and very mild winters. Right now I live in Niagara but am trying to decide whether to retire in Florida or if there's somewhere I can go maybe Richmond BC that's mild enough..

I live in Vancouver and at night I see 4 strong beams of light that circle a portion of the sky over and over again. They come together and move apart. The shape of the light is circular, and it most visible during cloudy, overcast nights. The lights are visible all the way into the sky, so they must be very strong. I'm just wondering where they are coming from?
