OMG. My heart sank when we walked in to rent a room at Maligne Lake Lodge and I could imagine the room from the size and dated décor in the lobby. I should have refused to go any farther but did not. Instead, I threw a hissy fit. I was a very unhappy camper until we got a call from "Room Service" (Chris Hennessey), wanting to set up delivery of a bottle of my favorite cheap bourbon (Old Crow). He actually had me fooled; Chris was afraid I'd hang up on him so he added a bottle of scotch to the order and mentioned Minnesota so that I'd catch on. I needed a good laugh.
! I did not reconcile myself to staying in a dump overnight until we went out to dinner.We had a wonderful Greek meal at L & W Restaurant and, to my surprise, the Greek food was wonderful. Greek cabbage rolls and Greek salad for me, rainbow trout for Bob. I felt much happier about the evening ahead after a glass of Chilean wine!
We're watching the DNC, listening to President Clinton's speech. It's good so far ... hoping for the best!

About Me
- Catherine Hennessey
- The first blog was a simple travel journal written during an Alaskan cruise in 2008. I document all of our trips, and refer to my posts fairly frequently, especially when we're planning a return visit to a destination. I enjoy recording events in both words and pictures -- blogging is one more way of staying in touch with family and friends in this wonderful, connected world. I've been retired since April of 2013, and there's no shortage of things to do or activities to enjoy. I enjoy writing about everything ... and nothing.
