Glad to know it happened last year and was easily remedied. It just came as a bit of a shock. I would noprmally have booked the hotel at the same time as my plane reservations, but since it seemed that I had plenty of time, I was waiting to see what Dorothy wanted to do. Today I happened to think of it, so I figured I'd make my reservation before I forgot about it again. I thought I was WELL within the time window. Well, hopefully Rick can get it straightened out tomorrow!
