Re: Vancouver

The image is an email with the subject "Vancouver". The sender, Joi Ito, asks "What is my favorite hotel in Vancouver?". The email was sent on Wednesday, October 28, 2015, at 7:36 AM, from an iPhone. There are also multiple lines that appear to be links to a blog, photos, Facebook profile, LinkedIn profile, and Twitter, though the specific content of these links is redacted.

ah! got it...so the Waterfront is the 1st choice for us and the Pacific Rim is 2nd choice.
