Work Perks

Ron was at a conference in Orlando this week. He had a rough start to his trip. He flew into Miami and caught a connecting flight to Orlando. His flight was delayed over 3 hours, though, so he didn't get into Orlando until 3am. It was close to 4am by the time he got to his hotel room. When he got to his hotel, Ron was talking with the receptionist while she was checking him in. He told her all the trouble he had had getting there and laughingly said, "At least I have that king size bed to look forward to!" The receptionist frowned and explained that she had to give away his room since he was so late. He was disappointed but joked around with the receptionist about finding him a closet or something to sleep in. We all know Ron just has a way with people. She finally found him a room. When she handed him the key, she said "I think you'll really like this one." He thought she was just joking around with him...until he got to his room and realized that it was one of their executive presidential suites. Check out these pictures:



This is the hallway INSIDE his room.



The guest bath



We thought it was kind of funny that he was there without kids but still watching Spongebob!

When I looked it up online, room prices for the executive suites starts at $650/night and can be as much as $2700/night! I'd say he got pretty lucky. And this, kids, is why it pays to be nice!

One evening after their conference they went to Universal Studios. Ron ate at the Three Broomsticks and tried butterbeer. He also brought home chocolate frogs for the kids. (Excuse the crappy cell phone pics.) The kids thought they were pretty cool. Tyler got Rowena Ravenclaw's card, and Danielle got Albus Dumbledore's.
