Timing is Everything

Today was all about being at the right place at the right time.  This morning we went to breakfast and we got right in and it just worked out we got our food quickly before the crowd showed up. We went at just the right time. Right after we got our food the line to get in the restaurant began to form and it grew and grew and grew.  We were glad we went when we did.  It took a while for all those folks to get their food.

We spent the morning at the poolside and then we cleaned up and went to another resort complex that is owned be the same company that owns the hotel we are currently staying at.  We rode the resort bus.  We are coming back in June with our kids and grandkids so we wanted to get it arranged and the rooms figured out.   The resort we went to has three different hotels on the property.  It is one of the biggest resorts in North America.  We first asked one of the employees if we could check out the suites and he told us they didn’t do that so we went to the next resort.  We happened to get a supervisor and she was super accommodating.  She even took us around and showed us different rooms.  She gave us her personal email and told us she would help us get the rooms together.  Sadly the rooms aren’t big enough to accommodate our needs and we don’t think we have rights to that hotel.  But she was super nice and helpful.  We went to the next hotel and found someone who hooked us up looking at the rooms. I knew he would be a big help because he was a Green Bay Packer fan.  Go Pack GO!!  They didn’t have the rooms that we needed so decided to give the first place another shot.  We found a supervisor this time and she was helpful and hooked us up so we could see the rooms.  It is all in asking the right person.

The resort complex is so big they have a big bus that transports you from lobby to lobby.  While we were waiting for the bus at the second hotel an employee came out saw us waiting and asked if we had an appointment or tour and we said no we were waiting for the lobby bus.  He said oh I can take you come on.  He walked us to a golf cart and away we went.  OH MY GOSH it was a scary ride.  It was like the taxi rides here.  I think he was an ex-taxi driver.  I bet we went over 35 miles an hour and didn’t slow down much for the curves and turns.  For a couple minutes we were behind a horse and carriage so we had to go slow but the minute we could shake them we did..........quickly.  I told Art, when we went around a couple curves, I was expecting us to end up on two wheels.  Anyway, it did save us a lot of time.  There are two times to take the bus back to our hotel.  We really wanted to take the first one but didn’t think we would have enough time but thanks to Speedy Gonzales driving the cart we saved so much time that were able to check out the last of the rooms and then walk out of the hotel and get right on the first bus.  The timing couldn’t have worked out any better if we completely planned it.

Tonight we were to the Oriental restaurant.  We could not have asked for a better more attentive waiter.  He was the best.  Our food was served quickly and it was delicious.  I ordered sushi for an appetizer and it was so good but wow was it spicy hot.  It cleaned my sinuses right out and burned all the way up behind my eyeballs.  Every one of then was like that,  I would tell Art how much it burned my sinuses and eyeballs every time I ate one.  I am telling you it was spicy HOT...... It burned my sinuses all the way up to my eyeballs.

What a great day we had.  Everything just fell into place... couldn’t have planned things any better.

Looking forward to tomorrow.  Hot stone massage day for me and regular massage for Art..........awwww..
