So I went to a wedding in Sudbury this weekend. Sudbury is a mining town in Northern Ontario, home of the Big Nickel. It is over six hours from my house and even has its own song.

The hotel we stayed in claimed to have wireless Internet. And it did, when we checked in Thursday.

When we woke up Friday, we briefly had the net and then, it went away, never to return.

We called the front desk to let them know. They said they were working on it. No biggie, we thought, we’ll log in once we get back from Science North.

Guess what wasn’t working when we got back? Thus began our repeated complaints to the front desk. We were promised repair. We were offered to reboot the wireless. After three days, we were told to use the ethernet connection, which also did not work.

We then found out from a staff member that our room was notorious for having issues with the Internet. So much so that the previous occupant had to be moved to a new room. When we went to the front desk with this info, they offered to move us. It was our last night there. As we were checking out the front desk cheerfully informed us that the tech guy was there to fix our problem. Nice.

When I return to Sudbury, I will not be staying here. In fact it will be awhile before I stay in a Radisson again.

So excuse me as I catch up on a week’s worth of posts.
