I should be in town about noonish Friday. It's a 6-8 hour drive, and I'll be leaving about 5am. (That's the earliest I could possibly leave...) If that's not convenient for everyone, I could wait and leave here later. Or whatever...

I know, isn't it? I think I'm going to start a "schedule" thread soon, so everyone's schedule can be coordinated in one place.

. . . and didn't have time today. Actually, the reason why I was even here for that brief bit noonish was because I had to make an unplanned trip home at lunchtime to take care of a couple things I forgot.

First day back at work -- good thing my head is firmly attached.

It took me a bit to figure out what the heck you were talking about, Rivka. [Big Grin] I guess my head isn't on too firmly, either.

Reminding everyone that you need to make your reservations...

Okay - here's the deal.

I'm going to book ONE hotel room - with two beds (Queen) for two days, because that will probably be the max that I can afford.

However, as I said, I'm bringing myself, my daughter, my son and my daughter's friend.

So something has to give. It wouldn't be "appropriate" for my son and my daughter's friend to be in the same room -- despite the fact that they have no feelings for each other, etc. I just know that would not be kosher with her folks.

So solution #1) - have daughter's friend (17) stay in someone else's female-only room. Then my family all stays together in ours.

solution #2) - have my son (also 17) stay in someone else's male-only room. Then we three girls stay in mind.

Suggestions?

I think it's most likely that there will be a place for your daughter's friend in someone else's room.

Rivka, did you reserve two beds? Because that would mean more sleeping room, and that might work...

I don't know that we're even going to have a male-only room. The only males I know of who will be staying at the hotel are your son and my husband.

I officially do not have to borrow my mom's car for the trip, and I'll have 6! extra seats to haul people around, besides my driver's seat.

Today was a very long day. I did not even THINK about making a reservation.

When I do, I can certainly book a room with two beds. [Smile]

Okay - I just made ours (That's why I bumped the thread - was checking the phone number).

The guy seemed to have NO idea what "group" I was talking about, even when I spelled it, etc. (of course, he also made me spell my last name three time before he got it right). But I figure that point we can get straightened out when we arrive.

I asked for the "double queen" as you had in first post, but he said all doubles are standard full, not queen. So I said that was okay. I hope he does get the group right - otherwise we will be a long ways away from each other.

The conversation was one long effort in futile communication -- I couldn't understand his accent, and he couldn't understand me. I must have said, "I'm sorry, I don't understand what you said." about fifteen times.

But it's done. I have a confirmation number. So hopefully that means all is well.

Yeah. Jeff said heavy accent... But at least the price is good, right? [Frown]

Well, the guy didn't seem to give us too much trouble about the group thing, when Jeff asked if they'd put us with the other members of the group. We'll see if they actually do it. [Dont Know]

Reservation made.

FYI, for anyone booking a 2-bed room, make sure they have you down for the correct rate. Tried to charge me $10 more a night, but when I said I had been told $69/night, apologized and agreed.
