Y9 D120

We are in one of the nicest hotel rooms I have had in a long time. This room reminds me of the really nice one we had in Canada. It's a corner room with a giant whirlpool tube, excellent view of the river, and away from most humans. We had some issues with people above us, but a quick phone call ended that.

Got up yesterday and took my car in for service. They wanted to charge me $235 for a '15k' service which included 'computer updates'. When I pushed on what that meant no one could answer me. I decided to do things a la carte. Things I actually knew what they were. Like an oil change, tire rotation, and air filter. I spent $100 thank you very much. On the list of 'recommended procedures' they gave me when I checked out, they had change cabin air filter with an estimate of $53. I looked it up on Amazon. $9. Yeah, screw you.

I was also unhappy that my car sat for 23 minutes before anyone told me it was done. I was watching it and they pulled it over but no one came for me. I was cranky about that. I got home around 10 and we headed out around 11.

Stopped at Tillamook for some lunch and got to Astoria at 3. Checked in, took a nap, then went and had sushi for dinner. They changed up the restaurant and we weren't 100% happy with the service. The food was okay, but our waitress sucked. I left a 10% tip which I very rarely do.

Got back, relaxed, and went to bed around 10.

Today we are driving to Seaside after breakfast and feeding seals. Yay seals! All this so we don't have to be in town and hear the fucking planes. That's why we're out of town this weekend you know. Not because we needed a vacation or anything. Nope. This is airplane weekend and we didn't want to suffer through another incident like last year. We are hoping they will be done by the time we get home tomorrow. It's going to be close for sure. Stupid planes.
