Greetings...

I've travelled quite a lot in Canada and the USA, but I only recently discovered the Northwest Angle (the tiny peninsular of northern Manitoba that is caught in the little notch that extends north of the 49th parallel between Manitoba and Ontario). My understanding is that it can only be accessed from the rest of Minnesota or the USA by boat or by land through Canada.

Could anyone tell me anything about this little region... places of interest, towns, communities? The Wikipedia entry…

we'll be flying from bangkok to the us in april and hear a lot about the trouble with return/onward-tickets being necessary, but we want to continue overland all the way down to south america.
can we successfully tell this plan to an american immigration official or would we need to make up something more ... eh ... mainstream to get the vwp-stamp? or is it better (and possible with the truth) to get a visa beforehand (esp. as we want to stay longer than 90 days) or can we just get a second…

Can anyone recommend any decent sites for sports and theatre tickets? There are a number of 'consolidators' which appear from a google searcn but the prices seem overinflated. Maybe my expectations are a little askew but $100 for a ticket to a Yankees game. Is that about right? I am looking for tickets in New York and Las Vegas around April/May.

My partner and I will be flying to San Francisco in May and are planning to stay 3 days before hiring a car and travelling down the pacific coast road. I am unsure what the best area would be to stay in.

Reading through some of the threads I understand the Fisherman's Wharf area is very touristy and that Tenderloin can be rough. We want somewhere that is fairly central, but don't mind walking a bit. Willing to pay up to $120 a night.

We intend to do guest houses and b&b when we travel but…

Immunization Form

I'm curious what the easiest and best way to carry proof of immunization with you while traveling abroad, and the easiest way to get one of those forms. I currently live on an island in the Florida Everglades and have little access to "real world" facilities but I imagine I'll need one of those forms when I travel to Tibet in a little over a month.

Thanks

Marya
