Anything But Rice-A-Roni

The countdown is on until I officially start my vacation.


My extremely kind father and I will set out in the dark of night (or morning, depending on how you look at things), leaving Cincinnati at a truly bleak and black 3 AM, destination: Louisville.
Now, I know the River City isn't the most exciting of locales, but it's merely a stop on my journey West (long live the CVG boycott). My 6 AM flight takes me to Chi-town for a brief respite (do you think the bars there will serve Bloody Marys at 7:30 AM?), and then I will make it to my first real vacation stop - San Francisco.
I scored a sweet deal on a hotel - the Hyatt Regency San Francisco for $75 a night. They were the only schmucks who would take my uber low ball Priceline bid on a four-star hotel. The hotel sounds pretty nice - it's steps away from the Ferry Building, looks on to the water, and was even featured prominently in Mel Brooks' movie, High Anxiety.
Jinkies.
I've packed about a million different accessories to dress up or dress down the arsenal of black clothing I've packed for the journey. My red-and-white polkadotted rain boots are also making the trek as the forecast for Eugene and Portland includes nothing but rain.
My suitcase includes a good variety of pleasure reading and I also hope to tick away my birthday and Christmas thank you note list while I'm gone.
And though I intend on avoiding any bit of work on this adventure, I might have to take care of a cookbook duty or two, though I am really contemplating putting it off until I come back.
I've got both my Flip and still cameras packed, so I intend on doing some blogging while I'm exploring CA and Oregon...
Wish me luck on finding the REAL San Francisco treat.

Yes they sell booze at 6am in some airports and I discovered they all seem to have a special..."ma-am would you like a double for 3 bucks more?" Uh what do you think?

Good job on scoring the Hyatt at $75.00 a night. It pays (or saves) to be a savvy shopper. Looking forward to pics and video.
...I just got a Flip video, too. The Irishman had, ahem, interesting suggestions on film footage. :)
