- You may want to call Travel CUTS in Vancouver. They are a student travel outfit
- with offices across Canada. Their number is +1 604 681 9136. They have an office
- in Downtown Vancouver and also at the University of B.C. They may also have an
- office at Simon Fraser University, although I am not sure of this. Travelling by
- bus will probably take more than 2 days, depending on where in Mexico you want to
- go. Air fares will also vary with where in Mexico you want to go, although the
- west coast of Mexico will obviously be cheaper from Vancouver. You may also
- want to investigate flights from Bellingham or Seattle in Wahington state
- accross the border. Airfares tend to be cheaper from the US than from Canada.
- Bellingham is 45 minutes from Vancouver and it's airport is (was?) served by
- TWA and Delta. Seattle is about 2.5 hours from Vancouver and is served by most
- major US airlines.
