Joe is coming. We'll just take the longer route, and that's fine. So that's three people from Ottawa. Need to take care of lodging, and we're all good to go.
We may try to put Joe in the trunk to go though the US customs. If we get stopped we'll just eject him and claim that we don't know who he is. The good side of this is that it will increase everybody else's chances of winning this tourney.
Garth, if you do plan to go and would like a ride, send me a PM.

The Flamingo is fully booked. So is the Fairway Motor Inn.
The Falcon Inn only has rooms with 1 King size bed and a cot. That's our best bet for now, and it's pretty cheap at less than $150 for the weekend.
Will look at other options now. If anybody has other hotels to suggest, please let us know.

Booked at the Ramada Coral Inn. Looks to be walking distance too from what I can see at maptuit.ca. So we're all set. |

It now appears I can make it after all. Dates have changed as of 2 minutes ago. I'll will have to confirm everything before I give a solid answer.
Could I win 2 wooden spoons in 1 weekend? Oh, to dream . . . |

The Ramada reviews are pretty horrid. Changed our booking to The Inn at Lundy's Lane. The reviews aren't great, but seem better. With the baseball tournament going on, can't be too picky.

There are a lot of B+B's in the Falls too - an option if all the hotels are booked. |

Marc-Andre
Can you give me an adress or website? I do not recall "The Inn at Lundy's Lane"
Rod
Ok I just found it, http://www.innatlundyslane.com/location/ thats about a twenty minute walk for me to the tourney location, but then again I have the average stride of a Sasquatch & I'm a fast walker. So it may be a half hour walk for you guys. I'd suggest splitting a cab ride (so you can drink during tourney, the room is licensed so you can bring you're own booze in.) Plus a cab to there will cost no more than like $5-$8 (thats before you split it 3 ways) & it should not take you longer than 5 minutes to arrive,

Has anyone event thought of using a camp ground? They are cheap as dirt. here is one 6 mins away from the venue: www.campark.com
A cabin (12 ' ?? 12' - which is 2¼ times larger then the room I stayed in at university ) is $60. Tent lots are even cheaper. |

Eric, if you want to go for the cabin, then I will split it with you - probably more comfy than a couch anyways! |
