Back from a conference

I got back from a nurse educator conference yesterday afternoon.  The conference was enjoyable, but the hotel was not very nice.  I blew a fuse when I turned my hair dryer on, the television volume didn't work, the smoke detector kept beeping, they charged an extra $25 a night for Liam to stay with us, they wanted another $35 a night for a mini fridge and they made us check out 2.5 hours before the end of the conference.  Seriously, I don't think they had people lining up to stay in a crapy hotel in Maine in the middle of May.  They also only had two pronged electrical outlets and all of my electronics require a three pronged outlet.  I have to admit that the food was good. They made the best strawberry shortcake I've ever had.  I don't believe in mixing fruit with dessert, so that is saying a lot!  Avoid the Colony Hotel in Kennebunkport Maine!
