I stayed at the Oakland Airport Holiday
Inn Express. It was a nice room, with a little sitting area and a
microwave and refrigerator identified as a "Junior Suite." My
hotel room was listed on the bill as a view room. Well, if you tilted
your chin up you got a lovely view of the Oakland hills. But, if you
looked straight ahead you got a great view of the parking lot and
storage area of the Oakland Airplane Parts Company.
I also had a great car, thanks to FMC
North America, for all my adventures. A Chevrolet Malibu LSE. It had all
sorts of electric gizmos – windows, doors, trunk, seats, mirrors,
lights, etc. Also had a CD player, so I had to have a CD for it and
bought this great CD at, where else, but Scotland Gifts called
"Music Glasgow and Mackintosh" that I played all week long
every time and everywhere I was driving. |
