Toronto Condo Redux

We survived our European Crossing and Turkey trip hale and hearty. Only to get caught in the COVID-19 trap after we returned home earlier this week. Sigh! The good news is that our symptoms are little more than that of a head cold. In fact, when I catch a cold I usually feel much worse. Thank goodness for being vaccinated and boosted.

At the moment, we're quarantining as per the CDC guidelines, which means that we have time on our hands to take care of a logistics matter that cropped up a few days ago.

You can bet that the email from VRBO advising us that our condo in Toronto was canceled didn't go down well when it popped up in Mui's inbox. A family matter ... that was the reason given. The refund is already posted to the credit card.

So, back to the drawing board we went today.

Nothing available through VRBO for our dates. The Monday after we arrive on 29 July is apparently a provincial holiday in Ontario ... and other places in Canada as well. Luckily, Airbnb had a property available in the same vicinity.

We once again have a place to sleep ... and eat ... and do laundry ... and relax between all the fun stuff we hope to do while we're in Toronto.

Perhaps the best part of the new condo is that the terms and conditions of use stress that this is a "quiet property." That's an especially good thing after our miserable experience in Miami this past March.Læs mere
