Took flight from SJC to PHX. Could not contact Uber so called regular yellow cab - the driver was from Somali land and could not find the new address of our apartment on his Apple maps. The flight was routed through Burbank - something that I had missed when I first booked the flight. This was supposed to be half day at work, as usual I was tense before we left home.
We got a Hyundai Elantra after being asked if we wanted a Ford fusion for $10/day extra. The car had 20k miles to it. The steering seems weird and the speed limits on I-10 are 75 mph.
We ate at a Chipotle in downtown Phoneix which was very peaceful and clean at 7pm on a Tuesday.
It took an event less 1.5 hrs to reach Tuscon. We stayed at a Holiday Inn at S Palo Verde. The dark curtains would not close all the way and sleep would have been difficult due to the lights from the parking lot shining through directly to our bed, so we borrowed binder clips to hold them together. The bathroom lacked a trash can and the fan didn't work. Funny the things you notice that are negative. The rest of the hotel seemed nice.
Apparently I snore a lot. DW is distraught and has demanded an extra 20 minutes of sleep. After that, the plan is to show up at the Holiday Inn breakfast for "the breakfast buffet is not included in your room rate but it is complimentary"!
