Holiday Inn Express

We have a nice room at the hotel.... though there is no bar fridge... lot of trips to the ice machine to keep the wine cold.

They had added the homely touches like the loud airconditioner that makes you think that you still on the plane and if that is not enough, there is that soothing sound as they pass over head one after another after another , after another LOL



Took a little while but we worked out the shower, but I must say that the free wi fi is fantastic as I have spoken to my gang at home a couple of times already on viber.....

it was around 5.45pm when we arrived at the hotel and we decided we need to keep ourselves awake for a few hours to try and beat this jet lag.... we found target just down the road and they were still open...
Love it .... you only need to go to one store over here in the US .... think of our target and coles stuck together with only one set of check outs....  oh and your wine is just another aisle in the supermarket....

After making our purchases we popped into Potbelly's across the road for a quick bite... think of it as a much fancier subways with table and chairs and nice decor.....  Tried my first root beer.... and my last .... strong taste... probably the equivallent of what an american would think of our vegimite LOL

We managed to fall asleep at around 10 pm ok..... but we both woke around 1.30am thinking we have slept all night.... until we looked at the time....  we probably played on laptops till 3 then tried to get back to sleep..... unfortunately only one of us achieved this...... and it wasn't me!!

    So... that is kinda what vegomite tastes like... I was always curious about that.
