German Tourists Deported From US for Not Booking Hotel

8. About 30 years ago

after while on a work trip that I had just completed and wasn't leaving until the next morning, me and my coworker drove from the Seattle area up to Vancouver, BC (through the Peace Arch at Blaine, WA). Was only going to be there for a couple hours but other than the line to go across the border, there was no muss, no fuss. The only odd thing was trying to figure out the purpose of the blinking traffic lights.

I never saw those types of traffic lights 20 years later when going to Niagara Falls (Canadian side in Ontario), where we stayed for a few days.
