Before my parents were divorced, my family used to go bowling four times a year or so. My sister, like Andy, had a knack for rolling gutter balls. She usually rolled a few frames and then went off to sip Cokes and play video games...
Come to Laurenland, the images whisper, where fantasy and finery go together like hand in well-stitched glove. Watch polo matches in Palm Beach, trim in a crested blazer and trousers of crisp linen. Sip cognac by the fireplace of a Sun Valley, chalet, snug under a brightly colored Navajo blanket and clad in a Nordic apres-ski sweater and wool twill slacks. Go on safari in Kenya wearing a bush jacket and khaki shorts that would do justice to Robert Redford in Out of Africa. Sip tea at London's Connaught Hotel, draped to perfection in a chalk-stripe...

To sip with the caribou, there is clear water from an 8,000-year-old Canadian glacier. For those who wander through Vancouver itself--and everyone should--there is wide culinary variety, everything from Afghan to Mexican. On Granville Island, a yuppie heaven of high-priced condominiums and boutiques, several good restaurants on the water top coffee and dessert with a view of the 10 o'clock fireworks display, which signals the fair's nightly closing...
