| BlackAMX | How did you like ordering your eggs at the breakfast buffet at the Cruisin Canada hotel? That woman was a tough cookie.The first morning I ordered scrambled eggs. When they were ready she said put plate here. I held out my plate but she pointed to the counter with her spatula,meaning put it there.The next morning I ordered scrambled again. She said fried eggs. I said scrambled. She just looked at me so I took the fried eggs. We started to refer to her as the "Egg Nazi". No eggs for you. Next.
One guy was afraid to get his eggs so he had a waitress get them.She was fun to watch,I had fried eggs the rest of the week.lol |
| ed monahan | She called me "Ma'am" and Sandy "Sir" the first morning. We decided she probably did not speak English.
She was definitely a treat. |
| ed monahan | Speaking of the hotel, I can't find my bill. I was going to try to get back the hotel tax along with the rest of it. What was the tax per day? We stayed 6 nights. I was thinking I may call and ask for a duplicate bill. |

That's why I skipped breakfast in the morning! ------------------

| BlackAMX | Ed,
GST was $40.25 for 5 nights. |
| ed monahan | Thanks Greg. |
| MDProwler | She remembered me from the first day. Each day she would see me and say "3 eggs sir?"
How do we get tax back?

| ed monahan | There is a tax form for us furriners to fill out. They do that in Europe, also. I got the form, but not the ORIGINAL Bill. I do have gas receipts, etc. |
| Rickster | I just sent for my refund today. The form indicates they will only accept originals. Ed, a duplicate on the Delta letterhead should probably work. My refund is $50.56.

| Rickster | I always looked forward to the egg lady. Though she might have been the Egg Nazi, she sure cooked fast and kept the line moving. Rkstr |
| CJ | We didn't have any problems with her. We had scrambled eggs every morning and she was very polite to us.  |

I did not have a problem with her but I did see her give some other people the evil eye when they did not put their plate in the perfect spot. I had an omelet every day. No Problem other than calling me Ma'am and Sandy, "Sir"

| CTProwler | My Hotel Bill was $1986 canadian for 5 night stay. Glad breakfast was free Eggs don't agree with me so i had a little box of cereal. Woman at the front desk looked at me strange every morning. I didn't stay long (How long does it take a adult male to eat a small box of cereal.)I said good morning sat myself down in about 5 minutes was gone. What money do i get back? hotel Tax? ------------------

| BlackAMX | Don't get me wrong. I didn't have a problem with her. She just reminded us of the Soup Nazi on Sienfeld. She was fun to watch in action. |
| ed monahan | I just looked at the tax rebate form. No gas or food consumed in Canada qualifies. Each receipt has to be original and for at least $ 50. If you bought goods you had to have them inspected at the border and the receipt validated.
They will keep $ 9 as a processing fee and another $ 2 for postage.
I never did get a new receipt. I guess it is probably not worth the effort. |
