Very nice report. Thanks for sharing your vacation with us. A few years ago we stayed at Mount Vernon and said we would never return because we felt exactly as you did. The parking was horrendous then and I have heard it has only got worse over the years. There are too many nicer places to stay in the Orient area! Sounds like a fun and relaxing trip. Sorry to hear about Orange Fever. I guess they are missing one of the original partners there.
