That's an awesome view! I've been to Vancouver many times and it is easily one of my favorite cities to go to. Unfortunately haven't been out there since last year, but if you get a chance I recommend that you visit the UBC main campus. It's not truly in Vancouver, but it sits on a sort of lookout over the city and ocean so it has amazing views of the harbor, cityscape, ocean, and mountains. Plus its an amazingly beautiful campus on its own and has an amazing Japanese Garden.

I'm actually a competitive swimmer from Paris Ontario, and I visited Charlotte with the Ontario Team for the recent Charlotte Grand Prix swim meet that was held there. Unfortunately we didn't get to see as much of the city as I wanted to but it definitely amazed me. Actually reminds me a lot of Calgary Alberta to be honest.

Thanks for welcoming me to the community, it seems like an amazingly well thought out site and concept.
