Andrew, I never let the facts get in the way of a good story.
(I thought your folks lived in Santa Barbara, so didn't expect to be caught out.)
"we just didn't tel YOU the #."
- A very wise precaution, too.

Andrew, that sounds like a plan. I don't know if you still have my email..I will email you this weekend so that you will have it for sure and whenever it works out I will look forward to seeing you.

Andrew what happened to Victoria where I hoped to meet you one day? I used to write under name michi but they won't let me in any more since my visits to Fodors have been so infrequent.
It took me some time to recover from the chili peppers you sent and I passed it on to my daughter-in-law (she's from the Punjab) for whom nothing is too hot.
We've been holidaying in Portugal and Spain in the past few years but I'm thinking of a trip to New Zealand maybe next year.
Best wishes for a good life.

hi michi, nice 2 hear from u. iam happily settled in victoria. I have been living here since October 2005. I built a house near gonzales beach and ross bay cemetary in fairfield. my husband tim is canadian , born and raised in Duncan and we r just about to file sponsorship papers for my landed immigrant status.
I really enjoy living in victoria and have made a nice circle of friends.
we would b glad 2 see u out here. i had a visit from neil and robyn cammack summmer before last which was great fun. although why neil chose to book in one of the local hooker hotels is beyond me....
is ur son still practicing architecture in the yukon was it.
cheers

Now you've gone and outed me, Andrew Beckerman! And I'm in the phone book at that! All future hate mail from Fodors right-wing crazies will be forwarded to Victoria BC.
That aside, for some reason the Red Lion's website failed to make it clear that it was a hot-sheet operation. But it didn't matter. We wanted to get up close with the urban proletariat of North America during our trip. We couldn't spend all our time hanging around plutocratic neighbourhoods like Fairfield.

Margo , Neil, et al, well we do try to provide tours and experiences for all tastes and pocketbooks and now we can provide in home accomodations and hopefully keep u ozzies away from the red lion ( but only if desired)
u know the canucks were disappointed to learn that the weren't the biggest swillers in the commomwealth so the party we gave for neil and robyn did deteriorate into a drinkfest competition; not a pretty picture....
