You should definitely continue your travelogue. I'm finding it immensely amusing! Also, it's nice to see more activity on the blog.

(14:21:57) Ancient of Days: The operator at my hotel answers the phone "Delighted to help you Mr. Smith, my name is ______, what can I do for you this evening?"
(14:22:28) Mad Giggler: expensive place? (14:22:38) AoD: Has to be (14:22:52) AoD: There are no ice machines in the hall, you call room service to get ice delivered (14:23:07) MG: lol
(14:23:08) AoD: I guess vending machines are too "ghetto" (14:23:14) MG: no doubt (14:23:22) AoD: Even the kind that vend frozen water for free (14:23:46) MG: yeah (14:24:04) MG: you charge everything to your hotel bill at places like that, because it's so lower class to actually pay for anything (14:24:18) AoD: lol (14:24:27) AoD: Restaurants are weird over here (14:24:51) AoD: They want you to order as soon as you sit down, and then they don't show up for like an hour after you get your food (14:25:05) AoD: When they do show, they're apologetic about having to give you the bill (14:25:26) AoD: They offer you complimentary coffee and tea, presumable to help wash down the bitter taste of, you know, PAYING (14:25:26) MG: She Who Must Not Be Named really wants to go to Europe (14:25:35) MG: haha (14:26:04) AoD: Then, after they give you the check, they don't come back for another 20-30 minutes (14:26:11) AoD: everyone just sits and talks (14:26:56) MG: Americans are too busy trying to get stuff done all the time apparently :) (14:27:22) AoD: yeah (14:27:27) AoD: stupid Americans (14:27:33) AoD: We Irish REALLY know how to live (14:27:43) MG: Top o' the morning! (14:28:38) AoD: The room service guy just delivered my ice (14:29:12) AoD: He mentioned that the maids had noticed that I had my own 2l bottle of Coke, and wanted to make sure that I was aware their chef could blend a custom soda for me (14:29:21) AoD: o.O (14:29:34) MG: yes! (14:29:45) MG: get more of that Club Orange (14:29:55) AoD: Dude, that's good stuff Trackbacks
