Hotel video

Here's a video of the hotel we stay in, when in the Soo. It's remarkable in that after the hotel shots there are shots of us eating a meal which was satisfying and came with a view of the water. The restaurant was The View and is located in the Delta Hotel down by the St Mary's River. It pretends to be fine dining but I wouldn't go that far, however the meal was decent and rounded off a nice relaxed day of sight-seeing on a higher culinary note than normal. I don't think that the technique of plating a steak on top of the fries (a wobbly platform when cutting a steak) is a sound one. You want your fries to remain crispy and not soggy from the steak drippings surely?

We would return though given the choices in the Soo.

As we were eating the first ever 1,000 foot freighter to sail on the Great Lakes appeared in the distance so I had to step outside, still chewing the escargot, to capture her on video.

Our mini-break only allowed us two nights in the hotel and next morning we would begin the long drive towards home, with an overnight stop planned in the picturesque lakeside town of Charlevoix to break up the drive.
