It seems more people have arrived safe and sound from Boston - the trap-setting abilities of the Turbinites must not be as extensive as I'd imagined. Anyhow, more writeups are appearing, and the latest is Maggie the Jackcat's!
This year's pre-ACPL dinner was on Friday, but we flew in Thursday to get a touristy day in Boston and to not be rushed like last year. We checked into the hotel after maneuvering our way through thousands and thousands of sorority sisters who were also convening, and were put in a fabulous room! A large corner room with a view on two sides. A spacious and roomy room with huge overstuffed chairs, each with their own plush ottomans and table. To top it off, a wide desk was in the corner, ready and waiting for my laptop. I turned up the AC, hung up my clothes, then jumped up and down on the plush, luxurious bed coverings! Whee! I'm in Boston for the ACPL, I yelled!
We did some Boston. Shopping and eating and seeing the sights, then went back to the room. Which was not cool. We called the front desk and they sent someone up right away! He changed the filter and fiddled with it and we heard what sounded like the compressor kicking in! What a great hotel!
Anyway, go take a look - and quickly, before I start ranting about being on the wrong side of the planet again...
