Traveling is Medicine, A Walk on Condado Beach

After watching Jonathan Tisch on Fox I headed down for my morning walk on Condado Beach from the Marriott. I headed out with thoughts about Tisch's interview about the state of business travel. Soon enough I came across a very pleasent fisherman and watched him throw a handline repeatedly out into the surf. Soon his work was rewarded and as he hung the fish from a tree to keep it sand free we chatted. The world's problems faded from my mind and I realized that traveling is medicine in troubled times.

Loews Annapolis, a Bit Confused

Waking up in suite 616 was a pleasure till I found two different bills at each of the doors. In essence I got charged for room 614 also. Loews is one of my top choices for a hotel because of the great service and fine accomadations. I admire CEO Jonathan Tisch not just for his well run hotels but his efforts on behalf of tourism. I have been a gold member of Loews Club Gold for years. It was after checking in and getting moved around 3 times due to confused front desk maneuverings that I ended up in the suite. Membership counts so when I took the 2 bills down one was removed, I hope so anyway. Confusion still seems to lurk around the front desk of the Loews in Annapolis, but I must admit the suite is stunning.

Today we are heading to the East Shore of the Chesapeake Bay, home to watermen and small villages. It is no confusing that move with any other options, unless I am charged twice for crossing the Bay Bridge once.
