With many airlines now charging luggage fees, travelers have to become savvier in their packing strategies. A summer vacation to Vancouver in the beautiful metropolitan city of Vancouver, British Columbia, can consist of light packing. A traveler should carry a pair of walking shoes, sunglasses, a camera, a bathing suit, a pair of shorts and a shirt for an enjoyable day at Stanley Park. With all those essentials in tow, a vacationer can choose to either walk or rent a bicycle to make their way around the circumference of Stanley Park's nine-kilometer walkway
Along this route on a sunny day, one might stop to enjoy a Popsicle sold from the brightly colored, melodious ice cream truck. The next stop could be walking along the sandy beach of Coal Harbor where tide pools full of tiny crabs and sea life can entertain just as well as the rowing club in the nearby water. After time in the sand, a traveler can enter the incredible Vancouver Aquarium and be delighted by the beautiful Beluga whale and her new calf (born June 2009). After being entertained by the sea life, one may choose to take photos by the totem poles at Brockton Point.
The lucky Vancouver vacationer should also pack a great nighttime outfit for a chic evening on the town. The city is packed with many fantastic culinary offerings. One gastronomic extravagance is Boneta located in Gastown. This stylish restaurant features Eurasian Fusion cuisine. Another treat is dining at Seasons in the Park where President Clinton entertained Boris Yeltsin during the 1993 Vancouver Summit - a location selected because of the combination of great food and picturesque views.
