Lol Deb. I was thinking of using my Moms addy but like Lindsey just said, she wouldn,t like all that extra paper thru her mail box.lol. A free flight would be a lovely idea......I,m already flying home via Canada.

Dunno about raking in millions, there was a report in the paper about how BSkyB who own a fair share of ITV have lost a millions since they bought their shares. They blame the monopolies people who've told them they have to reduce their number of shares to 7% of the company.

Has anyone ever tried our BC wines?

We went on two tours last summer to our wine counrty. We had a wonderful time on both occasions. We must have visited over 40 wineries.

We took our daughter, her friends, and boyfriend (over from Oz).
Daughter and boyfriend are on a "wine tasting" weekend over Perth way. (I remembered this as I called her 20 mins ago with no answer).

Maybe I should start a wine appreciation thread.

Carol - how do you figure flying from Canada is cheaper than from the States?

We flew to Vegas from Seattle last month - $79 each way! From Vancouver it was a LOT more...........we have all those nasty taxes.

Deb, I have not long returned from driving with my daughter out to Oregon. She,s living in portland but working in Vancouver, Washington. She,s promised me that she will stay out there long enough for me to take a proper holiday ...so i can take the ferry over to BC. I,ll give you plenty of warning before I arrive.lol

Even with taxes Deb, it,s still cheaper. I,m flying with Globespan this time and business class is actually cheaper than American Airlines "cattle class" was 2 years ago.

Carol you must get better deals on the east coast.

By the way - If you want to get to Vancouver, you don't need a ferry. Just get on the I 5 and head north. Maybe you are thinking about Vancouver Island??
Vancouver is on the mainland. We are 2.5 hours north of Seattle.
It should take you about 3.0 hours from Vancouver,Washington

I'll meet you half way?
