Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I am truly overwhelmed. Somebody is throwing in even his sister. I do not know how I would manage all that in about 24 hours.

I am scheduled to be in YWG on July 16-17. I have never been in that city/province and I am really curious to visit that part of OUR CANADA. Every time I am in YVR, somewhere on the east coast or in the middle, I am still amazed - after 24 years of living here - at the beauty of the country and the diversity of the Canadians and I feel privileged to be a Canadian citizen.

Another reason for that trip is that I have found an attractive Tango Plus fare and the full status mileage earned will bring me a step closer to becoming Elite before the summer is over.

No matter how much I like Hilton (usually), I will stay in the city, perhaps at the Fairmont (about $150 a night, thanks Mark) or at the Sheraton (less than $100 if booked early).
