3 sleeps newsletter and itinerary

 The table is set for Vanier... UBC Thunderbirds vs the Montreal Carabins! They are 2 strong teams who dominated their opponents last weekend in their respective semi-final games.  Montreal to face UBC in Vanier Cup after downing Western in Uteck Bowl | CBC Sports

 

Been getting some inquiries on the itinerary so though I would share it with you. It is a very similar format to previous years with the added twist of the microbrewery tour on the way down.
