Hey, I'm planning to take a trip to Vancouver sometime to visit my cousins. Since most of you live in Vancouver, hopefully you can help me out! What's the best time of the year to go to Vancouver? Best sales? Most festivals/events? Where is the best place to shop? What are the best, must-eat-at restaurants? Is there anything I *must* do when I'm in Vancouver? How do most people in Vancouver dress - is it similar to Toronto? (Probably a dumb question)
