TRAVEL INFO:
If you are travelling from out of country you will be required to have a Passport, these usually take between 1-4 weeks to arrive:
1. Americans can get passports very easily. Go to your local post office and apply for them. They will give you all the instructions on what to do, and some people get their passports within 2 weeks! Getting one costs $135 USD for anyone 16+ ($110 USD to renew), or $105 USD for anyone under 16.
2. A possible alternative for Americans is an enhanced drivers license which is cheaper than a passport, and quicker to obtain. The enhanced license lets you travel to Canada, and some other countries (though not as many as a passport).
3. US Passport Card: http://travel.state.gov/passport/ppt_card/ppt_card_3926.html
MORE PASSPORT INFO
Please note that as of June 1, 2009 visitors to Canada from the United States will be required to show:
1) If you are crossing the border by land or sea: a valid US passport, a US passport card, or an enhanced driver's license.
2) If you are flying: a valid US passport ONLY
