Hotel Night!

We stayed in a hotel last night. My family likes to do this between Christmas and New Year’s. It’s fun for the kids to go swimming, and it’s fun for the adults to stay in a hotel. To add to the excitement, there was a Nebraska football game. They won 33 to 0. Go Huskers!

We stayed on the seventh floor. It’s fun to be in a highrise. We were settling in just as the sun was setting. See, Nebraska does have urban landscapes:

Some sort of old building converted to apartments was next door.

Curt had some gift certificates to the hotel restaurant. We helped him use them. I ordered calamari. It was the REAL kind. I could hardly believe it. But if the tentacles didn’t convince me, biting down on a beak sure did. I eat calamari all the time, and it’s the first beak I’ve encountered. How exciting!

It felt like a finger nail.

    I am impressed that your camera didn’t melt or go insane by staring directly into the sun.

    Hotels – Yay!
    Beak – *Jibblie*

    Your family has some pretty fun times, I must say. Go, Royuks! Party on, dudes!

    Um, maybe it was, you know, like, a fingernail?

    Exactly. (I once sliced off my finger nail while making lasagna…I dug & dug in the bowl but couldn’t find it. Matt found it in his piece that night. Crunch. I should have told him it was a cow’s beak.)

    Enjoy your hotel stay!! That sounds awesome!
