Is that a Raddison now? It was a Hilton when first built then someone else
took it over. Those hotels seem to change their allegiance very regularly.
Anyway, it is a very good hotel - compared with here a real bargain.
Remember Red Lobster - that's a chain. Also remember Richmond Hill - I used
to live to the north of RH in a town called Aurora.

You drove to the east coast in February? You're a brave man! They get very
serious snow storms out there - much heavier than in Toronto. Nova Scotia
has been known to disappear under a snow drift. I take it then you did
Montr=E9al as well?
