Today I’m giving away a sewing kit. Why do I keep these things? The white threaded needle is missing, so I must have used it at some point, but really, does anyone ever use these things? It’s from the Pacific Palisades Hotel in Vancouver. I remember staying there about 12 years ago. I was in Vancouver for a conference and got really sick and missed the second day. I had one of the worst colds I can remember. I spent the day in the hotel, drinking cup of soup made in the coffee maker. Health aside, it’s a great place to stay in Vancouver, all melon colours and happy people in a good location.
I will put it in the Goodwill box because I can’t think what else to do with it.
A lot of hotels don’t give them any more. Too expensive.
I bet you don’t miss them either right?
Right.
Sorry to tell you Deed but the Pacific Palisades does not exist any more. It was torn down a year or two ago, to build new condos I think. I stayed there too and it was a great hotel so I was very sad to see it go.
Oh, that makes me sad. It was such a peach of a hotel.
