Hey everyone!! I just started using this site today lol okay so heres my question. I only have about 3 and a half months of school left, and I'm already excited for summer. Me and my friends are 15-17 years old and live near Vancouver, BC. How can we make this summer lots of fun and memorable? I don't wanna be sitting at home doing nothing all day. Thanks for your answers!! :D


Answer
Oh, wow, I forgot that there are only 3 1/2 months of school left. Lol, I guess I've been too preoccupied with school work. I used to live by Vancouver :D.

1. I really miss the beaches, so have plenty of fun out by the oceans =).
2. Visit amusement parks, ride every single ride until you get sick, and go into haunted houses.
3. Go rock climbing, sky-diving, or camping.
4. Go to a lot of parties.
5. Host a party.
6. Play a prank on your friends.
7. Make some money with a car wash.
8. Water fight!
9. Dance competition/learn a type of dance.
10. Go to concerts.
11. Learn how to skateboard.
12. Learn a different language.
13. Go to a museum.
14. Run up and down the aisles in WalMart.
15. Building a rocket or fighting a mummy or climbing up the Eiffel Tower. Discovering something that doesn't exist or giving a monkey a shower.
16. Start a band.
17. Have a picnic.
18. Take as many pictures as possible.
19. Catch fireflies.
20. Get a tan.
21. Dye your hair a crazy colour.

How do I get (I'm on foot) from Vancouver, BC to a campground/free place to camp close to the city?

Q. I'm staying in a hostel one night but would like to find a free campground that is near the city where I can hang out for a few days. Anyone know how I could go about doing this?


Answer
there isn't a whole lot of camping that is close to downtown. there is one RV park in north vancouver just across the lions gate bridge called capilano RV park you can easily get there by public transit or taxi. depending on where your going after vancouver there are some better places to camp on the outskirts of the city but are quite a but farther out of downtown.

golden ears provincial park is a really nice campground and is quite far east of the city in Maple Ridge but is still accessible by public transit. if you are heading to Whistler or Pemberton area there are lots of nice places to camp in Squamish which is about half way from Vancouver to Whistler and is accessible by train or greyhound and possibly public transit.

if you are heading south to Seattle area then there are places to camp in South Surrey/Whiterock

for info on how to get around with the public transit visit:

you won't find anyplace free to camp, but if you are a little adventurous you could set up camp in stanley park for the night but i'll warn you that there are lots of bums that live in the park and i'm not sure how friendly they would be.

good luck
