Spartan256 got a reaction from BobbyPdue in LTX20 Suggestions!
Just seen the video about which mechanical keyboard switches are the best. Would be cool to have quite a few of them ( maybe the more popular ones that were chosen) on display so people can give them a go.

Last year I spent about £1800 on flight and hotel alone, but this year I have found a much cheaper AirBnb and the flights are currently cheaper. Flying out on the 4th and coming back on the 11th from Gatwick.
@BobbyPdue Want to go to breakfast and Cafe Jam again?

Spartan256 got a reaction from Elektra57 in LTX Tips and Advice from people who went last year
A few recommendations from my trip last year:
Do the LTT Studio tour if you can. Make sure you get there with plenty of time. As OP said you can get Skytrain half way there if you are coming from downtown. I got off at King George station, was planning on then getting the bus. But its better to get a taxi's, they are right outside the station and quicker. When you get to the Studio and have a bit of time you can chill with the other people doing the tours.
If you are staying downtown and get up early go to Jam Cafe, it opens at 8am but queues start at 7:30am. But the wait is worth it as the food is amazing.
Walk/bike around the sea wall around false creek. If you want to bike you can use the Vancouver's mobi bikes and you can stop and the many bike stations.
Make sure you stop at Granville Island, there are a few shops and a market with plenty of food options, you could easily spend a couple of hours here,
There are also little ferries which will take you to different parts of false creek.
Take a walk around Stanley Park

The LMG office address is on their website, I would recommend aim to be their maybe 30 mins before in case anything happens also their will be other people their you can talk to and one of the LMG will be checking tickets just before you go in.
When I did it last year, I arranged to meet up with some people who were on the same tour time as me and we took the skytrain down to King George Station then took a taxi the rest of the way and split the taxi bill between us. You could take a bus but they don't seem to be on time.

Maybe contact Freegeek considering they are helping out with bits at LTX.
Normally you buy things from them but you may be able to agree to rent one for the weekend.

So I have had a look at the taxi prices and the cheapest estimates seem to be around 80-100CAD each way ?
