That depends on what the traveller is looking for. It's like asking if a certain movie is overrated. Everyone looks for something different in a travel destination. Vancouver is clean, huge, multicultural and stunningly gorgeous. It offers just about every sports and leisure activity you could want. Skiing, windsurfing, hiking, world-class dining, theatre, concerts, whale watching, fishing, festivals, and even a legal nude beach. The greater Vancouver area has about 1.5 million people and is surrounded by snow-capped mountains and ocean islands. The people (by American standards) are polite. The best time to travel is from May to the end of September. Vancouver gets very little snow in the winter but many days of rain.

Well, there were a number of forts built along the Hudson river at different times and places. The most famous one though was West Point, named simply after its location. This was a critical strategic fortification during the Revolutionary War. American pssession of it made it impossible for the British to exploit their control of New York City by advancing up the river. Bendict Arnold committed treason by attempting to surrender the fort to the British. It became the home of the United States Military Academy in the early 1800s. Michael Montagne

George Vancouver discovered Vancouver Island and proved it was truly an Island. Running Head: George Vancouver's life George Vancouver's life Everything about George Vancouver Abstract Along the Pacific coast George Vancouver made many discoveries. He was the sixth child of his family his five siblings were Mary, Bridget, Sarah, John and Charles. His family was originally Dutch. Amazingly at the age of thirteen he joined the navy as James Cook's midshipman on his second voyage. The job was secured by his father. Body George Vancouver was born in Lings Lynn, England on June, 22, 1757. Kings Lynn was a busy sea port; his father was able to secure the job as midshipman aboard the H.M.S Resolution James Cooks ship during his second voyage. When he returned to England he was placed as lieutenant aboard the H.M.S Fame. Prior to that he served in a West Indies station to survey Kingston harbor and Port Royal. In seventeen eighty-nine the royal navy was planning a voyage to survey the south pacific whaling grounds and also to take back Nookta Sound. The expedition was led by Vancouver in command. The expedition left England with two ships in April of 1791. The expeditions first year they visited Cape Town, Australia, Tahiti, and China, from every destination they collected botanical samples, and survey the land. He went along to North America. There he encountered American captain Robert Gray going up the Columbia River. Vancouver kept traveling north to the Strait of San Fuca. He ordered his men to survey all around them up to the frigid waters of Alaska. Most of that work was done in small sail boats or row boats. The first European to enter the Burrard Inlet was George Vancouver. He named it after his friend sir harry burrard. In addition he surveyed the Howe inlet and the Jarvis sound. On George Vancouver's thirty-fifth birthday they unexpectedly met a Spanish expedition, Cayetano Flores. They explored the Georgia Strait and Discovery Islands for three weeks before parting. When the surveying season ended they returned to Nookta. The Spanish were also there too. Cuarda and Vancouver exchanged maps. They decided to wait for further instructions of what to do. So for the time they called it Cuarda y Vancouver Island. Later the name was shortened to Vancouver Island. He returned to England in 1795. He had made a circumnavigation. When he returned to England he faced difficulties. He died in 1798 at the age of 40. There are many memorials of George Vancouver today. Two cities are named after him. There are statues of him in Kings Lynn and Vancouver, Canada. Although he was assaulted in the street, embarrassed by a news paper and had mutiny plotted against him people appreciate him now.

In regular traffic, it takes about 45 minutes to get from Vancouver's airport, which is located in Richmond, to the cruise ship terminals that are located in downtown Vancouver. Morning rush hour is heavy from 7am - 10am and afternoon rush hour is from 3pm - 7pm, so give yourself extra time during these periods. Also keep in mind that there are two cruise ship terminals: Canada Place and Ballantyne Pier - they are about a 5 minute drive apart. With the introduction of the Canada Line rapid transit system in 2009, the train from the airport to Waterfront Station (2 blocks from Canada Place) takes less than 30 minutes.

The distance in miles between Vancouver, B.C. and San Francisco, CA, as per geobytes.com/CityDistanceTool.htm, is 799 miles or 1286 kilometers. I believe the drive can be made in under 20 hours, ignoring speed limits.

The city of Vancouver is in the province of British Columbia (B.C.). You may not care, but if you ever want to impress a Canadian, refrain from referring to cities in Canada in the ", " form (e.g. Vancouver, Canada).

Canada is much larger in area than the US (although with fewer cities) and it is aggravating to hear Canada referred to like a state. To really impress a Canadian, don't use the name of our country at all, just write "Vancouver, B.C." or "Toronto, ON." Hearing "Toronto, Canada" would be as silly to a Canadian as I imagine "New York, U.S.A" would be to an American, although maybe "Los Angeles, U.S.A." would be a better example as New York is also a state.
