STEPHANIE BEACHY wrote. "On Tuesday Jan 26th, the barge was moved from the Fraser river to false creek, which is right down town in the heart of the Olympic action! The Lodge is being rented as a "Floatel" by McDonalds. 18 of their ambassadors are staying for the month of February. They moved in yesterday! My title is "Hospitality Manager" It was a lot of work setting up the lodge, I had to organize a continental breakfast as well as all the refreshments, hskp and hotel supplies. I hired a Housekeeper who I work with in the summers. We spent a whole week just cleaning and setting up!" Click to read more.
