Always nice when work's paying! ;-) I wouldn't get too awfully
excited about the breakfast, at least judging from my past
experiences. It's more of a continental style, rolls, pastries, cold
cereal, toast, bagels, coffee, juice, milk, etc... but it's better
than nothin'! Now the afternoon cocktail party I usually
participated in. Started by having drinks in the Jacuzzi ;-)

Having the full kitchen is very nice. Throw stuff in the fridge for
snacks etc. I usually go out for dinner when traveling though so I
haven't really used it for real cooking. I do that at home so I
usually pass when on the road, which thank heaven I haven't had to do
for quite a while. Traveling for work (at least in my case) was more
of a pita than anything else. End up working pretty long hours. I
spent a week in California, 1 block away from Disney and I think that
I saw the sign for it once. :-(

Ever wonder about those people who spend $2.00 apiece on those little
bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backwards...
