搞定头疼的住宿问题                                               每次出去玩最头疼的就是住宿问题,网上大量的搜索呕心沥血在寻找最佳性价比的地方,只能说没有到达不差钱的水平:(想念回天朝就免了这些费心的事。说到这提一下咋天递交了天朝多年多次的签证,拿到多年签证就可随时回去探亲访友旅游,想到这不由的心花怒放! 听说卡尔加里的一个工作人员连续办了三万份签证,终于累瘫了,好同志! 上张旅馆图啊,在领导的指导下,行程变的简练了,就是三个地方!   1. Kelowna 途径这个一直要去但没去成的小镇,就多住一天check it out! 2. Tofino 住三晚,旅馆比米国还贵,难怪人称天朝的北戴河! 3. Vacounver 四晚,UBC,美食,看看三文鱼回流,就这样了!
