Reality

So you're probably wondering, how good can a hotel gym really be? Is Eric just all talk when he says he works out? Oh no... this is what I work with:

Look at all those machines. No ellipicals but at least there's treadmills.

Arcade at the Hilton

This is the arcade at the Hilton.

There's a lot of old games like NFL Blitz 2001, a game where you shoot aliens and alien looking like humans (denoted by them shooting at you) called Area 51, and some old 4 player with knights, elves, rouges, and wizards called Gauntlet. That last game had 10 credits in it so I played one of them. It was a bit like diablo but u don't pick up cool things and all the enemies continually spawn back at a constant speed so getting out of an area is more important than killing everything. What frustrated me the most hitting the attack button didn't do anything, you had to keep holding the joystick towards the thing you wanted to kill and the computer did the slashing for you. So running around the enemy was not a possibility when it got crowded. I can't believe this game is a classic. It's an awful game.

My Second Home

Hotel is like my home now. Here is the entrance of the Sports bar. They have a pool table, darts board, and plasma TVs. I've been there a few times but nothing special. I like their wings though.

I would like to go swim but it's creepy how empty it always is

Starbuck

This is something I got at a local Starbucks.

A friend tells me it's a caramel frap. I don't have a clue. I just asked for some coffee product that was cold and was sweet, not bitter. It was really good.

Hilton Columbus

This week I'm back at the Hilton again:

It's a really nice font design, here's a pic of it at an angle:

I'm bunked up here as long as I am at work... and no... the reason is not because I'm sleeping all the time. It's a work place too!

T &T Around the corner

A new supermarket called T&T recently opened in my neighbourhood and this was the first time I've been there. It has some of the best prices and it's clean like a Dominion or Loblaws (if you consider those clean). We were there buying some take out sushi and joining the crowd:

Chinese people just like to be at crowded places

Concourse B

Much like Toronto's airport, Cincinnati's is divided into different sections and I had to get to Concourse B. I had to ride a bus that runs from concourse to concourse through traffic of trucks transporting baggage and airplanes. Here is a picture of the inside of concourse B:

It's really huge a nice. But where's the Canadian flag??? Here's a map if you're ever there:

Much like concourse C, a familiar restaurant can be easily found:
