Hey Richard, I’m glad it worked out for you and your ol’ ma. Please don’t tell my mom; I don’t know why I didn’t think of that…

We booked my 87 year old Mom into the Empress for two nights this month and also got her on a $95 Westjet seat sale from Calgary direct to Victoria. Such a bargain! Thanx for the tip, Julie.

Hi Julie, I just wanted to thank you again for your postings about the local hotel specials.
I booked the Chateau in Whistler off your advice for an anniversary weekend with my husband
in September. Today I booked 2 nights in Victoria at the Empress. I am going with a good friend for her birthday.

I would never have heard of these specials without your postings so I wanted you to know how much I appreciated it.

Best wishes, Stephanie H.
