Back from Annapolis.
Jan. 27th, 2013 08:49 pmThis has been a lovely weekend, even with missing documentation and navigational woes. (for the record, historic Annapolis is NOT Google Map friendly. There are too many one way streets and about two roundabouts too many)
( The Driving! )
It turned out that the Governor Calvert hotel is part of a "Historic Inns of Annapolis" complex that spans two roundabouts, several one way streets and three main buildings. The ceremony and reception were at Governor Calvert, our hotel room was in the Maryland Inn a 5 minute walk or a 10 minute roundabout laden drive. Valet parking was available and after the navigation kerfuffle, I was more then happy to pay a fee to have someone else drive us around. We got a gift bag when we checked in, awww. The valet driver had ME drive to the Maryland Inn, made sure we knew how to get back and helped unload our luggage.
( The Hotel! )
The walk back to G.C. was chilly. I don't like hose or stockings, so I was bare-legged for this shindig and grateful for my wool coat. We found where people were hanging out, where the guest book was (more like a "guest stack of paper", I addressed my note to Sildar and Ducky and one of my (^_^) faces for the giggle factor), and where the reception would be.
( The Waiting! )
More later. SNB is home and I'm ridiculously tired.
