The highlight of Vancouver visit has got to be the Capillano Suspension Bridge! It is so thrilling (and scary? rolleyes.gif ) to walk on it!

Many many sincere thanks, Ketaki, for your appreciation and the kind gesture of invitation! smile.gif

Well, yesterday we were back at Seattle, after finishing our 4-day visit to Vancouver and Victoria. Lovely places both!

My daughter, with whom we stay at Seattle, has recently attended a business conference at BANFF, taking along her husband too! She was talking highly of BANFF. Maybe, some other time for me and my wife!

Thanks once again.

Glad that you got the respite from sultry summers back home !

Nice Venkat. Did you go to Lombard street, the crookedest street? Japan center is nice. Ofcourse, napa valley and Muir woods are worth seeing.
