all across the country

particulars about our trip:
the radisson at seatac was an excellent place to stay and leave our car while we were gone -- highly recommended, especially since we just walked across the street and into the terminal.
the country inn & suites on east henrietta was a big disappointment -- not recommended.
u.s. airways (to philly) was an excellent experience -- i wonder if it was only because we were in first class. we enjoyed our breakfast and juice/pop. we particularly enjoyed it when the ticket taker turned back a young gal trying to board when they called first class. when she finally did board, she was at the tail-end. slacker.
the philly airport was not at the top of our list of pleasant airports; outside temps in the 90s.
u.s. air/republic (to rochester) was pleasant.
the rochester airport was hesitant to take my nexus card -- didn't see many of those, they said.
the american eagle flight (rochester to o'hare) was dumb -- they lost points.

american air (o'hare to seatac) wasn't a good as u.s. air, but they kept serving us food.
i think it's safe to say i don't ever want to fly anywhere again unless it's in first class.

    Really! That's too bad. Our silly cheapo Days Inn here in Espanola is basic but gets the job done (and has a mini-fridge & microwave which have been great considering we've been here 5 days).

  2. well, for the price they charged it was disappointing. the a/c blew right on the bed and didn't have adjustable vents, the towels were thin and scratchy and very motel 6 worthy, there was a millipede crawling across the floor, everything was dark and old-looking, their 'gift' was a joke, the desk chair couldn't be adjusted. on the plus side they were situated nicely to the interstate and restaurants, and had a big parking lot.
