I am going to Vancouver, BC for an overnight visit and need to meet up with friends. I just added international calling to my Cricket phone plan. Do I need to do anything else to get reception and make calls in Canada?
What about using Google maps in Vancouver, BC.
Google maps is quite reliable in Vancouver. Having said that, depending on the date you will be visiting, there will be road closures related to the FIFA World Cup games in June and July. There are also road closures and reduced traffic lanes/street parking related to the building of a new underground transport system (the Broadway line for Skytrain) and for various road works (sewer and water pipe upgrades). As a local I allow extra time these days to get to any appointment if I am driving. I don’t use Google maps enough to know how they update temporary road closures (or if they do at all).
