Well I was leaving thurs but over night in buffalo and roll in with Trent (trm002) and his gang. Looks like we will be going straight through. I'm torn though, 75 through MI or east through Cleveland and meet buddies. It's about 45 minutes longer but prob worth it.

Going to BBOMG!
I've stayed away waaaay too long - lots of plans being made! I want to go to the Oshawa event this year, and my daughter's been wanting to see more of Canada since we went to Niagara Falls five years ago. Sooooo, I mentioned to my husband that we didn't go on a family vacation last year. He said, so where do you want to go? I told him about this, and pointed out that, "the other ladies in the group got their husbands to go." It worked! So now I am figuring out which hotel to book (I'm way too late to get in w/you guys:(), and whether to tack on a couple days before, or after the event, since we figured we'd do a little sightseeing around Toronto or something. If anyone has suggestions, let me know? I want to get this booked sometime in the next couple of days.

Wait till you see the price
I decided to add Thursday night reservation. Called 1-800-Holiday and they didn't even have me registered. They finally told me to call the hotel direct in Oshawa, turns out it becomes a Quality Inn in a couple of weeks. They had my reservation and I added Thursday. |

Awesome... looks like we should plan on leaving the area sometime Thursday morningish. Seems the way to go is going to be up 71 through Cleveland and around the east side of Erie. I know going through MI may be a tad shorter but there are more folks to meet up with that we know if we head up 71. I think one of the meeting places will be the Columbus area.
Stay tuned for more details. |

I drive that route around Cleveland a few times per year. I am from Rochester, NY originally and I go up there a lot to visit family. It's best to go 71N to 271 around Cleveland to 90E all the way to Buffalo. Then we can take the expressway from Buffalo through Niagara Falls. That might be the only bottle neck. But it shouldn't be bad on a Thursday.

I knew the price was high. Sometimes I don't mind paying higher prices for higher quality. I don't mind sharing with my Camaro buddies either. Quote:

Also from BBOMG:
Just a FYI for anyone who made reservations at the Oshawa "Holiday Inn" conference centre. The Holiday Inn will be changing to Quality Inn as of next Tuesday (or so). When I tried to confirm my reservation via confirmation number on their website (Holiday Inn), it gave me an error; then when I called the Holiday Inn 1 877 410 6667 toll free number on my confirmation email, they stated they had NO Holiday Inn in Oshawa at 1011 Bloor st (WTF). ONLY by calling the original 1-905-576-5101 number was I able to confirm with guest services I had my rooms (using my original confirmation #). The original website doesn't work either, but this is the new one that will "be coming soon"; http://www.qualityhoteloshawa.com/ |

The switch over will be no big deal. When I added Thursday, the mentioned it and told me to rest assured, all reservation will transfer over. That won't stop me from confirming in a few weeks after the switch!
