This has been an amazing trip to Dallas. We've had soooo much fun! The flight in went really well, I didn't even get airsick!!! The shuttle to the resort picked us up, and the resort is amazing. When we got up to our room, I discovered that they had given me the wrong room. I had booked a suite, but we were given a "deluxe room", w/2 king size beds. That wouldn't have been so back, but I had booked the suite, and we really didn't need 2 "king" beds.
I called downstairs to the concierge, and the resort was FULL. Texas A&M had a game with Arkansas, plus all of us AHIMA delegates being there, but they did find me a suite. But... as in my life, we went to get settled into our suite, and someone was already in that room too!
So, our bell-man said he would take care of us... he said to go downstairs, grab a bite to eat, and he would take our luggage and get us squared away. We then went to the "texas station" and had some eats. We still hadn't heard about our room, so we went to the coffee lounge, and I was exhausted, so I curled up on one of the sofas till we heard from the Bell-man. about 20 min later they paged mike to the desk, and they had new keys for us, and our luggage was waiting. our Bellman met us, and asked what room. we gave him the #, and he said they had "really hooked us up. When I saw the room.. I just couldn't believe it!
They gave us a "deluxe suite" it is HUGE!!! We have a separate bedroom area with a huge TV, then we have a living room area and a dining room area, plus our bath/shower. We have a double deck balcony that overlooks center court, with a huge fountain below us. AMAZING TO BE HERE !!!
We got settled in, and I took a LONG HOT BATH!!! It was much needed after such a busy day.
Sunday arrived, so we took in the breakfast buffet at the Riverwalk cafe, then came back up to the room to prepare for my class. Only a few minor glitches but the pink pc worked great.
My class originally had 16 students scheduled, but I ended up having a total of 26 students. Pretty good considering they had to pay an extra $85.oo and had to spend 3 hrs with me after lunch on E&M coding and auditing. I felt it went really well!
After we finished up class, Mike and I zipped back down to the sports bar, and had dinner. We got to catch the last of the cowboy's game. [they lost ... :( ] Then watched the beginning of the steeler's game, but I was just toooooo tired. I came back up to the room & crashed!!
I was so tired I slept for nearly 10 hrs!!! whew! Today we took in a fancy lunch at the AMALur cafe. I had the grilled salmon, Mike had the steak mmmmm The food at this resort is unbelievably good! 2-nite, I think we'll try to catch the Packer game on their 50 FOOT (yes 50-foot) big screen TV. tomorrow we fly back home to reality! mmmm Vacations are so nice!
More tomorrow! Luvs...
