Hi! We will be arriving next weekend for a pre cruise stay for 2 nights. I have seen reference on this board about River Rock casino which seems to be outside of downtown proper but no one has really mentioned the casino that is downtown the Edgewater--is it worth a stop? We only like penny slots so with 500 machines they might not have a good selection. Is the bigger casino easy to get to? Don't know if I want to spend time getting there- -I might just have to wait till I'm on board the Island Princess....

I have this other question: trolley or double decker bus? I hear alot of talk on these boards of the trolley tour but I also see a double decker bus. I printed off the maps and see they go basically most of the same route but is one more frequent then the other? I'm assuming they have both been around for awhile? I saw an online discount for the double decker and was going to pre-buy but I don't want to be disappointed..thanks! MY other question (Bard on the beach)is just above so you can reply to both--that would be great, just great!:p

Hi Vancouverites!

I'll be visiting your fair city June 28-30 prior to a cruise. I was interested in live theatre and couldn't really find anything of interest (to me)in town that weekend except Bard on the Beach. Can you tell me about "festival seating"? It looks like a beautiful venue. Is it easy to get to via public transportation or how much would cab fare be to Hyatt Regency downtown? Saturday tickets seem to be be "limited" according to the website so it looks to be crowded(?) Are they bench seats or are we sitting on the ground? Thanks for your help

After reading your post I got the same deal at the Hyatt Regency for 6/28and 6/29 thru "priceline"--awesome!

:) Very excited to see Vancouver and all it has to offer!
