There was a surprise when we reached Vancouver International Airport.  While we waited for Bhavika to arrive, there were Bollywood Superstars (Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Amisha Patel) arriving as well.  For me, I was unlucky as I didnt see them as I was going to Tourist Information centre.  All I saw was lot of people rushing to one side and I thought it must be a kind of wedding couple arrival....oh well!! 
 
Now I have a new dream.  I would LOVE to stay in Vancouver in the future!!  Really it was best ever place I have been.  Nice weather (although I have only been there for 5 days) and there are lots of mountainous scenes which were breathtaking.  Also there numerous beaches around and there is supposed to be a better ones not so far away.  There is a small forest called Stanley Park which is beautiful and calm.  I went jogging around there in the morning especially across Lion Gate Bridge. 
 
We hired a car (Toyota Camry) and it was big to drive.  On my first day from the airport, I had to drive to the hotel.  I was a bit nervous due to driving on other lane and also on where we supposed to go.  Since the first day, i found driving around Vancouver a lot easier. It is a good thing that the car is automatic and the roads are straight!! 
 
If anyone want a relaxing holiday, this is a place to be.
(Dont be surprised if I decided to move to Vancouver!)
