I thought the same thing.. but I did it this sat and sunday when I got up early to commute to N West for my First Aid renewal.
Plus this is a buffet.. so its not like you have to be there at a certain time.
Oh its a buffet? Well I'd clean up the place then. lol
I don't like going to buffets near the end, they stop making food so you end up with cold stuff.
Wow, that sounds really nice. Hotels are so beautiful. I think we had our company 'xmas party there last year.
This is kinda off topic.....
If anyone is in downtown in the evening, the Hotel Vancouver lounge area is VERY nice to enjoy a few drinks and live music.
That idiota co-worker is taking 1/2 day off so she can go with her mites. Unfortunately I have to work otherwise this might have been something I'd consider doing.
We are donating unwrapped toys at our local community centre so it's not like we're not doing anything. Really like this annual Christmas thing that we do with the kids.

Oh wow P.C. that's really cool!
Wait, which Hotel Vancouver, the old one or the new one.. (//forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/4.gif) just kidding.
It'd of been nice for Vancouver if they didn't tear down the old one, instead of the Sears building we'd have this:

hey lets draft a petition to bring it back. lol
That is really cool P.C. That building must be very special to you?
ADD: I know the lounge you're talking about purelife....I walked through a while ago and couldn't believe how faaaaaancy it is now with nice lighting, too. It used to be called The Timber Club (maybe it still is...) and it had dark wood panelling and wooden carvings. There was a large wooden bear at the entrance. I remember going into the lobby when I was probably 2 with my mom- drove downtown to meet my dad after a meeting. Mom went to drag my dad out of the bar (lol) while I waited at the outside by the bear. There were these chocolate squares in the bar, wrapped in gold foil. My dad's co-workers gave me a bunch of them. I remember crying and spitting one into a kleenex, as it was TOOO MINTY for my wee taste buds. After that, we got something to eat at the restauarnt- used to be called The Spanish Grill. I used to repeat the names of these places- Hotel Vancouver, Timber Club, Spanish Grill....loved the sounds of the words.
Awww, that's a sweet story Lil Me. Funny the things that we pull out of the corners of our minds to remember. That building is special to me. I actually have some old yellowed mail to my mom addressed to the Hotel. They had a call out a few years back for ANY old memorabilia of the hotel for a display they were putting on. I never made it there to see it. I wonder if they'd ever do that again.
Might be nice to go back for your birthday one year. Request the same room?
lol.....we've talked about it for years. I wonder if they'd think about giving it to me for the same price as then. Hmmmmm
So...did anybody go to this event ?
