Slept in....rare...nice!

There is one bummer to sleeping late. if the hotel has a comp b-fast you may miss it. This hotel (a really nice place, new, big comfy beds, fabulous staff, quiet, off the road by 100 yards so quiet from the outside as well, priced high enough to keep away the one hour guests and the loud par tiers, low enough for the tired middle of the road traveler. The rooms are not small.) as I was saying, this hotel's b-fast ends a little early, 9AM. So If you plan on sleeping in, one in your group will have to be willing to climb out of bed, wipe the sleep out of their eyes (as well as possible) pat down their hair, put on pants, and find their way to the elevator then the dining area...hopefully not forgetting the room key. Today, for my room it was me (it's always me in my room) and for the boys room it was Miles. We have gotten very good at stacking plates and bowls, carrying condiments and plastic ware in our pockets and it need be making 2 or 3 trips. I should also mention the b-fasts here are just as good (if not better) then every place we've stayed before.
On store for today is a visit to the Paris, TX Eiffle Tower, lunch at the fairgrounds (a note here: this fair is genious in the way they have arranged for the local eateries to sponsor and provide meals for the fair worrkers, staff, volunteers, and entertainers), then back to the htoel for a swim then back for the show. The kids also have their studies to attend.
