ladyofthethreadOkay, it looks like Anime North is inching towards the definite list for me. ^_^ My father actually seemed more anxious about getting a room booked near the convention center than me. O_o; Maybe, he remembered us looking all over when trying to book a room for Otakon in May.
Anyway, since he seemed to be in a rush to get rooms and wanted a nice hotel, I booked a couple of rooms at the Renaissance during the 4 nights the con rate was available. I’ll probably have to call for adjustments later on since the website seems to assume that you’ll have the same number of guests in each room if you book more than one on a single reservation. Assuming my grandmother doesn’t come (she doesn’t do well with car travel these days), there’s only going to be 5 of us which won’t split evenly.
My father is talking about possibly spending two weekends in Toronto so we can see all my mother’s relatives. (he figures some of them would be busy with work during the week and we wouldn’t have enough time during the convention weekend) His idea is to drive to Niagara Falls for a few days after the con and then go back to Toronto for another weekend. But that’s just an idea at this point.
In other news, we seem to have a mouse problem. Yesterday, I found some Hershey’s Kisses that had been left out downstairs had bite marks. o_o; And I saw one run behind some stuff in my room the other day. The darn thing kept me up most of last night because I could hear it running around! >_< I caught the mouse in my room this morning though. I baited all the traps up here with a bit of chocolate last night since they seemed to be going after our candy. >_>; And it worked!
