Oh so NOT happy!
It was dark when we started and it was dark when we finished. This just isn't right. But all would be forgiven with a nice run on the treadmill and a hot soak in the tub. At least that's what I was thinking, looking forward to and dreaming of the entire last flight into Vancouver.
In a word...denied. I am hoping to at least do the run, but my reward and promise of a good dunk in the hot tub where shot down by a fancy hotel. I hate these kind of hotels. They look great from the outside...the lobby is gorgeous... but the amenities are nothing. You can get internet (only in the lobby) but their pool is closed for the season. What? I haven't even been up to the room yet. I have to get up at 3:30am. I know...I'm complaining a lot right now. Sorry. I'm just ticked at myself because I lost my camera yesterday. I left it at a mexican restaurant and I've been trying to hunt it down all day.
Okay that's enough. wish me luck in getting back my camera. Thank you in advance.
UPDATE: Yes, I feel I have more to add to this post. Great news...I'm getting my camera back! I got in touch with a nice RJ Captain based out of SLC who was in Bellingham and willing to pick up my camera. He is spending his own money to FedEx it back to me. Sweet!
Also, I did get to run that night in Vancouver. 5 miles, some situps and arms. They have an neat workout room on the top level. It has wall to wall windows that overlook the city. Since I was working out at night, the city lights were spectaular.
However, I was so pissed about the fact that you can have free internet in the lobby, but not in your room, that I stayed in my gross sweaty clothes, grabbed my laptop and an apple and headed downstairs.
I made myself nice and comfy (kicking off my shoes and putting my feet on the glass table) to eat my snack and surf the net. It was interesting to see the looks I was getting by the hotel workers. You see when I was there earlier I was in uniform. They smiled at me.
This time I was trying to make a statement "Okay fine...if you won't let me have free internet in the comfort of my own room...then I'll make myself comfy in your lobby- where ALL your rich important guests are coming and going. HAHA!" They weren't smiling this time. I wished I had some big PJ's. That would have been a crystal clear message. Maybe they should reconsider. Eh, with my luck- they'd just take away the free internet in the lobby.
One more bit of info about Canada...rooming charges are skyhigh!!! Yikes!
