As we have a weekend free and I needed an excuse to get out for a lodge meeting in Gib and to see family, we've booked up to go out on the 490 on 22/03 and back on the 491 Sunday. We'll be staying at the Eliott (which incidentally back in the '80s was a Holiday Inn!). We prefer to be in town as its closer to family (and the HIX is full). Hopefully the refurbishments will be completed by then as we were there in the summer and it was a bit hit and miss with A/C units leaking over the floors of the refurbished rooms.
