Trying to decide where to go on vacation at the end of June, would like to go somewhere where I can be active?

Factors, but not deciding factors:-not too big of a city because as I said I would like to do outdoor things and would not like it to be too expensive (ex. I imagine London or Paris would be very expensive)
-An interesting local history
-not to cold/rainy
-Outdoor activities I would like to do/be available to do: mountain biking, snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, etc.
-Different culture than western/canadian–>(which is not all that important to me)

Well, if you want to go somewhere that is a bit different from Canada, I would strongly suggest that you come visit Hong Kong. It is a wonderful city as well as a fantastic central point from which to explore other parts of Asia. Also, there are english translations to almost all signage and a good portion of the population speaks at least some english, so it is very easy to get around. We have one of the most low cost, extensive, easy to use, and efficient public transport systems in the world. Also, we have many sights to see in the city – and outside of the city in the countryside – and that includes lots of ocean activities. We have world class hotels and restaurants as well as all the shopping you can imagine. Furthermore, we have temples and things like that that western tourists seem to like a lot.

Come visit http://www.RSTNL.com for links to some great websites that will help you get acquainted with Hong Kong and help you get started with your trip planning.
