When Slightly Warm Gets Toasty...

The room was warm and then got desert like as the numbers in our room climbed. We called operations twice and they struggled with the air condition system but could not fix it. It got so bad that (Jen and Matt noticed this but I must've been preoccupied)the maintance man was attempting to pry the vent open more to let more air in. More hot air in the room? Bad plan of action.

After and Becky arrived in our room Mike made the hilarious comment that he felt like he was going to pass out! We soon escaped the tropical heat to go walk to dinner. Our maintance man was still attempting to look hard at work. I kept telling Jen that he was going to put on her bra and underwear after we left the room. : )

Dinner at Maggiano's in downtown Boston was spectacular! We had a family style meal with more than enough food to go around twice. We were all so full that we could barley make the walk back to the hotel! On the way back we stopped at the official race finish line and posed for some glamour shots. The best one was us attempting a human pyramid. It must've took Becky back to her old h.s. cheerleading days!

We were taking bets in the hotel elevator as to how hot our room would be. It had to be close to 80 when we walked in. Matt (the man of steel balls) decided that enough was enough, he called the front desk and demanded another room. It would've been a different story if they at least would've left some type of note saying that they could not fix the cooling system but there was no attempt to better our situation by The Sheraton.

After finding out by some miracle that there was an extra room available with 2 beds, Matt, with random clothes in hand from his quick attempt to pack up, went back down to the front desk. However, Jen was a little concerned since the miscellaneous clothes did contain his dirty underwear. However, maybe this just furthered the point that he mean business!

It was off to room #2, our as we liked to call it: the clogged up sink with the ghost room.... Stay tuned!
