“AS FRAGRANT AS SPRING, AS RIPE AS SUMMER, AS SAD AS AUTUMN, AND

AS COLDLY PASSIONATE AS WINTER.” FILM HISTORIAN DAVID THOMSON’S

DESCRIPTION OF NICOLE KIDMAN APPLIES JUST AS ELOQUENTLY TO

VANCOUVER. TRULY ONE OF THE MOST SPECTACULARLY SCENIC CITIES IN THE

WORLD, EVEN ON AN OVERCAST WINTER DAY, WHEN THE CLOUDS PART AND

THE SNOWCAPPED NORTH SHORE MOUNTAINS ARE REVEALED TRIUMPHANT

ABOVE THE GLEAMING TOWERS OF VANCOUVER’S DOWNTOWN, EVERY

VANCOUVERITE SUDDENLY REMEMBERS WHY THEY LIVE HERE, AND EVERY

VISITOR IMMEDIATELY REALIZES WHY THEY’LL BE COMING BACK.
