Meanwhile......at Reagan

Those arriving at the National Airport are very close to the Hyatt Regency and there is a free shuttle bus which is (a) FREE and (b) whisks you to the hotel in a matter of minutes. Come out of the terminal, turn right and keep walking until you come to the "Hotel shuttle" sign (the slight clue will be the large group of people gathered there.) Wait until the big blue shuttle with the word "HYATT" comes along and give the driver a wave.

I've been popping out when I can to meet various people at Reagan to direct them to the shuttle. Today I rushed out to meet a team and couldn't find it. Many minutes passed while I anxiously sought out some familiar faces, but to to no avail - before I was put out of my misery by the information that in fact the team is due tomorrow...

To change the subject or as Mark Twain once put it, to draw the curtain of charity over the scene, there are some fabulous eateries within a short distance of the Hyatt. Which one is your favourite? There may be a little prize for the best description........
