Met a newlywed young couple on the ferry back to CA Wednesday who were spending the night at Lindberg Bay Hotel while we were at Emerald Beach. Saw them yesterday morning at our hotel during breakfast as they had to catch a quick shuttle from their hotel to ours for breakfast as Lindberg Bay suddenly discontinued b'fast service due to "low season". They also do not offer any type lunch service.

Now if you want to talk about the check-in staff at Emerald Beach and the ridiculous "rule" that rooms are rarely available until much later than 4PM, we can talk.

Check out is Noon SHARP! A "guest relations staffer" was knocking on our door at literally Noon yesterday as we were finishing packing telling us if we didn't leave immediately we'd be charged extra. All this while four housekeepers sat down on a ledge below having a big old time with each other while empty rooms sat untouched. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/smashpc.gif" alt="" />
