Rare Lionesss Posted May 13, 2022 Author #54 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Arrived at Embassy suites and booked it over a year ago before prices went “sky rocket in flight”. Also tacked on their $30 request for an early room. Comfortably in our room with beautiful view of street. Not complaining. Getting ready to do our Publix run. Sun tan lotion, yadi yadi yadi. Our cab ride was $18. 75. Before tip. He was cute. He spoke fluent “non English “. It was one of those head nodders like you understood every word he said. Ok. Time to go shopping. Buy buy. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lionesss Posted May 13, 2022 Author #56 Share Posted May 13, 2022 OMG. It begins. Now we always stay at the Embassy Suites for the convenience and safety. So as we are getting ready to leave I open the curtains and there is a body lying in the parking lot across the street. Wish I brought binoculars. It kinda looks like there could be movement Post Mortem. Or there could be some movement. Did what any concerned person would do when they saw the wheel chair and shopping cart. Closed the curtain 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have seen a few up near our hotel. In fact, one lady took up residence in her lounge chair, right in front of the cross walk buttons. Maybe she was expecting payment if you wanted to push the button to cross the street. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted May 13, 2022 Author #58 Share Posted May 13, 2022 After Publix with our lethal brown store bags in tow we kinda sorta wander over to the curb. Inch by inch. Step by step. No you go first. I’m not going first. NOOOO you go first. Your birthdays before mine. Didn’t have to it moved. But why in heavens sake would anyone lay on concrete when it’s 83 degrees. Chillin till 5 pm. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stayed at Embassy last Saturday before my cruise, tried getting early check in online but was “denied”. Got to hotel at 10:30 and figured I’d sweetly ask the very nice woman, she not only got a room for me right away, but gave me 6 (😃) drink vouchers and I didn’t get charged extra for early check in. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a selection of wines. Liquor and what looks like Jungle Juice something you would drink already drunk at a frat party. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But inevitably there is a lot of last minute things to get done. Well I am great full because my DH eagerly helps. So after we tested negative. We divided our tasks to be done. Rick put clean sheets on bed print negative COVID test results confirm room in Fll print boarding passes take car to get washed stop to get couple things CVS get feeder fish for turtles bring lunch home check car tires check oil and fluid levels shut off outside water turn off toilets pay online bills stop mail and newspaper let neighbors know we will be away make notes for house sitter. load suitcases in car.( When time) get money and divide get travel documents take trash to curb. Sue Wash and style hair do make up select clothes to wear to Cleveland. But most importantly nag DH when it is taking him way to much time to get ready. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

Rare Lionesss Posted May 14, 2022 Author #75 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) Good morning from the all included breakfast at the EMBASSY. We were surprised to hear that the hotel currently has more guest attending a 50 th class reunion held here yesterday or the senior Olympics. Many walkers scurrying around. I can only wish one day I can still get around no matter what accessories I will need. Cane walker, chair. Just let me continue to travel. The hotel is starting to show its age. But very clean. Coffee very tasty. Sea ya Edited May 14, 2022 by Lionesss 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
