Hollywood just isn’t fun enough

Sunday, March 25th, 2007


Today, Mom and I spit a cab and went back to Hard Rock so I could lose more money and drink more Margarita’s. That lasted till about 3 (as in o’clock in the PM).

One of my dad’s seasoning suppliers was nice enough to hire a limo that would drive us to the airport, chartered a plane to fly us down to Key West, and there we embarked on a relaxing pub crawl.

Arrival on the Great Sea

Saturday, March 24th, 2007

I’ve survived the trip to Hollywood, Florida. Sadly it is not the same as Hollywood, CA. I found all this out back in 2003 when I was here before. And just like before the Westin Diplomat is frickin’ expensive. No free WiFi for the rooms, two drinks at the outside bar costs 19.97 (found that out the way one would expect.) and the service staff is very prim and propper as one would expect from a five star hotel. The Non-free wifi at the Westin or in Key West is why this update has gone up late. I’ll be adding one entry from the travel week each day to keep things interesting.

Get up, we’re goin’ to the airport!

Saturday, March 24th, 2007

It’s 3:00 AM, I just woke up and am going to the airport. (I know, the title fooled you, right.) For today, I’m off to Hollywood, Florida. The town just above Miami, location of Snaxpo 2007, The largest snack food convention in the US, and the home of the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel where Anna Nicole Smith Died. So I’m in for one hoot of a time. Then around Tuesday-ish, If I wasn’t having enough fun already, It’s off to Key West and the southern most point in the country (As in the USA as apposed to the city and Amish Country, which I’ve been to several times, when I’ve stepped out of my house.) Anyway, I plan on keeping a travel log over the next week. Check back regularly to see what I’m up to.
