Van / Nanaimo / Victoria UE?

I'm heading out to Vancouver, Nanaimo and Victoria next week. Just wondering if anyone has suggestions of places to check out?

If you're in Vancouver, Stanley Park is beautiful this time of year, even if the lineups at the Aquarium are long. The hippies should be out in full colours, take a walk down Commercial Drive and smell the weed. And in North Vancouver, standing atop the Cleveland Dam is quite amazing. Lots to see in Vancouver.

Likewise for Victoria. I was just there, and I highly recommend bringing a bicycle. Also, bring some spare change for the street kids downtown. If you have the time, the National Historic Site at Fort Rodd Hill is a great place. I didn't have a chance to hit the Butterfly Gardens, but next time!

Nanaimo is a bit of a scum hole, although there's a good little diner downtown where I've had some nice breakfasts. Don't be fooled into paying too much for a famous Nanaimo Bar- more than $2, and you're getting ripped off. Protection Island is historic, and should be open this time of year.

If you're into frozen yogurt, "I Love Canada" t-shirts and squeegee kids, you will LOVE Victoria!
