I like the change because Home Depot means going through a lot of unnecessary traffic & attempting to keep people together through that seems nearly impossible.
I realize we may well all get split up anyhow, but at least if we're all highway-ing we have a better shot and driving with people is always more fun.
& yea, Peace Arch or Truck Crossing (again, depending on the sign read out when you pass exit 6)

No idea what this new mall is but i'll have a look at the map before heading on down.
So is it going to be in front of the tim hortons? Starbucks?
f.y.i. being a non-canadian/american, I suspect I potentially might get hassled more at the border but we'll see (at least that visa i got last time down is still valid but meh.. i still have no idea what i'm going to say up at customs... but I figure i'll take the opposite lane from alan and his friend and pretend I dunno 'em lol)

ok, people who DON'T know where the new pre-meet up place is: call me if you get lost, if you don't have my # PM me.
DIRECTIONS: on Marine in Burnaby, once you pass Boundary you then pass Nelson (& Mandeville Gardens) keep going until you come to Byrn Road. There's a big outdoor stop mall there (kinda looks like the outlets actually haha) turn right into there and find the Starbucks. In this mall you will also see a Cactus Club, Canadian Tire, PriceSmart Foods.
Like I say, I would post a map, but the mall is too new and isn't on and map yet.
Lol, theeme of the meet I created seems to be Starbucks, always look for the Starbucks

chumba wumba gumbadidooo, the meet time is the same as posted before (1:30pm)
so we will either get there before or shortly after 1:30
but then it all depends on the border crossings anyways
EVERYONE READ THE FIRST POST IN THIS THREAD
LOCATION IS NOW STARBUCKS IN BURNABY

EDIT:
we should stick to
(POINT A) Market Crossing Cannot find on google maps, but it's on the Starbucks website
Marine Way & Byrne Road
7585 Market Crossing
Burnaby, British Columbia V5J 0A3
604-456-0250
because it is easier to turn to East bound on Marine Way when we are all together
although google maps doesnt have it, it is there
because the strip mall is so new there, google map hasnt had time to update it yet

Ubernoob and Kaydee: I drive by this area all the time and ive never seen a starbucks at point A from that google map. From the pin you dropped for point A, it would have to be in the golfcourse, or being built in the new commercial complex that is not yet completed. Point B is easy when you leave to go any direction b/c there is a light at the intersection.
