I along with my kids had gone to San Diego last month for whale watching. My kids were particularly very excited to see the stunts of gray whales. It was such a spectacular sight to see gray whales do [SIZE=3]spy hop, fluke up, fluke down, and more. Apart from whales, we also got to see dolphins, harbor seals, porpoises, sea lions and brown pelicans. We went twice fro whale watching tour. It was a wonderful experience. My kids just loved it. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]For easy commuting I chose the California Suites Hotel, which is located right in the heart of San Diego. So I found it quite convenient to commute to [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Cabrillo National Monument on Point Loma and the Birch Aquarium in La Jolla for whale watching tour. [/SIZE]

Why does this seem like an advertisement?
Here. I'll show you some free whalewatching within 10 minutes of just about anywhere one could live and you'll never get seasick, although your stomach may take a few flips. In addition, you'll pick up some fine merchandise at bargain prices!
AND to top it all off! It's calfing season!

Because it is.

Look at the user's other posts. He/she/it is just trying to advertise some hotel. I'm imagining the trick is that they will wait until someone says "Oh boy! Where should I stay in San Diego?!" and then they chime in with the hotel.

I'm surprised he/she/it hasn't been banned yet...

Yeah, I know. I can't remember if it was you who outed the last poster who tried to pull this. Was it you?
It turned out the person pretending to be a guest was actually an employee. This is the kind of thing you see on sites where "ratings" take place. Fortunately, there aren't too many characters smart enough to really pull it off.

May have been...but honestly I don't remember. I hate crap like this though, so it could have been me whining. hehe
