Lets think of potential names...
Orca- coz they will get in the way of dad's fishing and they smell

That's what I thought. If she wants a change of scenery I'd of thought a weekend at The Four Seasons would be okay. At least there's a decent bar downstairs.

Fully aware of tippy whale watching boats as we used the 1998 one as a case study for part of a Transport Canada boating course.

That would necessitate an unwanted move as my condo is too small to accommodate little piglets running around the place.

Keep them in the bath tub

[QUOTE=plasticcanuck;11864959] Doesn't seem like it.

Did you like Tofino?

[QUOTE=Oink;11864960] I did like it. Stayed in excellent accommodation, but it's not on my list of places to revisit.

Oink. Come East young man. Wait til the summer but come East. I rather think you'd like St John's....

If I had to visit any other bits, it would be St. John's in the summer.

Blame foreigners (especially Americans). Everything is priced for them at the moment.

eg I was at Whistler for a couple of nights in January. Stayed at the Hilton, which was the cheapest available (with the BR Residents' Discount and free parking). It was almost DOUBLE the price it was last January...

Vancouver hotels are expensive this year - the boss (no, the one at work, not 'er indoors) was complaining when he was in town last week - and he's not even paying for the hotel himself...

I can imagine Tofino would be similarly gouging, although it is Valentine's and Storm watching season too I guess.

I like Tofino and Ucluelet - have been a couple of times. Probably nicer when we went last July than it is now however...

We've stayed at Water's Edge in Ucluelet, which was nice. It's not one of the more expensive locations, but it's more Apartments than Hotel.

You can have a bath on the deck and everything....

Keep in mind Whistler also had way better snow this Jan vs last which also increased the amount of Canadian visitors and visitors in general.

Now that's a cool avatar

But last year Whistler had the ONLY decent snow in the Lower Mainland...
