Eric arose early. Miraculous. We headed over for our free sausage, scrambled eggs, bagels, powdered OJ and oatmeal in a bag. We step into the dining area and Eric says "I'm not eating this crap." I'm still not in the mood to argue. There is a Denny's right next door. We head there instead. Ellie, the server, greets us with a big smile. The place is empty. I attempt a little humor. I ask "How long is the wait?". I'm not sure if here glance was one of being puzzled or annoyed. There certainly was no trace of a smile.
I should have let things be. Rather, I explained that we were doing a blog of our trip and wondered whether she would say a few words on video. Ellie politely declined but recruited Dwight, the host, to say a few words
Unfortunately I shut off the camera early. His best words were after the lights went down. Dwight is the man. Ellie is great too.
I had the Senior French Toast Slam for breakfast. My first discounted meal as a senior citizen (see photo) . I almost refused it but my frugality got the better of me.
We are off to pick up the bikes in a few minutes. Yes. The moment has arrived.
