Shoot - put us by the Mall near the airport where I stayed with COEX - at least we could walk across the parking lot to the mall and get something to eat.
Dude no kidding. It's nice around the airport, but we drive 10 miles away to nothing really.
The worse is PHF, I saw a 9 hour overnight there with a drive from PHF to Hampton for the overnight. That's 20 miles each way and WITHOUT traffic about 30 minute drive. On a 9:14 overnight. ?????????
"Well it's downtown Hampton, we had to find a downtown somewhere. We just can't stay next to the airport just because it's the biggest mall and commercial district on the east side of the State." But yet Troy in Albany?
I think it's time to fire up some FCRs. I feel like I haven't been ignored all weekend, so let me submit these things and get my "who cares what you think" cup filled and ignored.
