California Adventure: Day 2

Image
Remember how I said I love West Coast travel?  I do, except when it comes time to wake up on Day 2.  On the second day, I'm always up before dawn.  Chris and I are typically early birds, so back the clock up two hours and we could easily be up at 3 a.m.  We managed to sleep in until 4 a.m.  I like to enjoy a cup of coffee within minutes of rising.  I looked around and didn't see a coffee maker.  I've been down this road before: no in-room coffee maker, lobby coffee isn't set out yet, room service takes forever to bring coffee.  Dang fancy hotels.  Sometimes I just want a Courtyard Marriott with a mini-Keurig.  Was my thus-far perfect stay at the St. Regis about to be ruined over my inability to get coffee?  No, it was not.  We called for room service.  It arrived within minutes.  A large pot, two cups, and biscotti laid out beautifully on a tray.  Now we could relax and sip coffee until breakfast....
