Just a reminder to all that the weekend traffic at the border can be brutal. Do allow at least 30-40 minutes for border crossing.

I am heading out early and having breakfast at Tony's which is located just 1 block NW of the Chevron gas station along Peace Portal Drive (it's a small 1 door restaurant that serves great breakfast...their pancakes are the best).

I have a feeling taht we will not make it to the Chevron at 10:30 if we leave Lai Doi later than 9... I just have this gut feeling. Also, it takes 40 mins to get to the border from Richmond, not to mention border will be CRAZY traffic...

I hate to be late eerytime i meet u guys =\

Trust your gut feeling! It will save your life someday.
Heads up...will cross the border early, have breakfast at Tony's then head off to Costco in Bellingham for cheap gas, then wait at Bellis Fair. Probably have another bite to eat at Ivar's F&C while cooling my heels waiting for you FitFreaks.

No worries ah chuen, get some good sleep coz I don't wanna see u falling asleep while driving on I-5.

I can be at lai do even before 8am there's no problem with me at all. I get to work at 7am-ish all the times anyway so I have no problem with 8am.

For me BBQ or not doesn't matter either. I don't mind to meet up with u all WA ppl & eat at a restaurant either. As long as I'm out of the 604 for a little while almost anything works LMFAO.

no covered area. I'll be bringing a camping grill. I heard someone mention something about a hibatchi (sp?). Iirc there are plenty of tables and such there. I'll bring a table with me just in case. Got a couple I can slide into the fit without issues.

Add me and my wife to the maybe list.

We're heading down to Renton to visit a friend tomorrow. Will stop by the lake on the way back up on Saturday. Hope you'll still be there.

Look for my Canadian only Alabaster Silver Metallic GD3!!!

I think someone should print out google map directions in case anyone gets left behind.
