What’s Up?<\/h3>\n

I started working on this post on Sunday afternoon, just getting ready for a nap. The two folks on the Gatorland mini-IPT had a ball and learned a ton. This was Jake Levin’s fifth IPT. He came down from Montreal. He was joined by first-timer Krishna Prasad Kotti from Salt Lake City, Utah. My plan was to head home after the Sunday morning session but we had so much fun, and Saturday afternoon was so good, that I decided to get in one last session by joining them for Sunday afternoon despite the fact that I have a ton of work to do and despite the fact that I fly to LAX on Tuesday morning to attend the School for the Work (of Byron Katie) for 7 days in Ojai, CA. Heck, you only live once …<\/p>\n

I had dinner two nights at El Tapatio Restaurant. For me, it was the best, tastiest Mexican food I have eaten, and on Friday night I had the biggest and bestest house margarita ever. \ud83d\ude41 Well, maybe the ones at The Brigantine Restaurants in San Diego are just a bit better … All of the staff was great. Jose, the waiter on my first visit, was so helpful and sweet that I asked for him again on my second visit. <\/p>\n

El Tapatio Restaurant<\/a>: 1804 W Vine St, Kissimmee, FL 34741, United States.<\/p>\n

El Tapatio was right across the street from my hotel, the Super 8 Kissimmee. Here, under the title \u201cI Would Never Stay In This Hotel Even If It Was The Last Room in Orlando!\u201d is the review I posted on Trip Advisor:<\/p>\n

I came in a night early on March 3rd after having a Hotels.com reservation for the night of 4 March. Hotels.com had arranged my March 3 reservation in advance. It took me 40 minutes to check in despite the fact that only one of the two clerks at the desk was busy helping another customer. At first they could not find my Hotels.com reservation but they finally did and confirmed that I would be able to stay in the same room for both nights.<\/p>\n

I finally got my two room keys, drove to my room, took my big bag and my laptop bag out of my SUV, and tried to get into my room. The first key did not work. The 2nd key did not work either. I called the hotel on my cell and asked that they bring me two keys that worked. They said, “We cannot. We are too busy. There are many people in the lobby.” I put the stuff back into the car, drove one minute to the office, and found the two clerks standing there doing nothing. There was nobody in the lobby. <\/p>\n

When I finally got into the room I found it OK once I got used to the cheap hotel room odor. <\/p>\n

I was napping on the afternoon of the 4th when the room phone rang. “Mr. Morris, we have you checking out today; please get out of the room.” I explained that my second night was a paid Hotel.com reservation. “Oh, OK.” I could not get back to napping.<\/p>\n

Just after midnight there was a loud knock on my door. I had been sleeping peacefully for more than 3 hours. “Open the door and tell me your name. This room is supposed to be empty.” All in an angry voice. I refused to open the door but finally told him my name. It took me well more than an hour to get back to sleep. Never consider staying in this hotel.<\/p>\n

Room Tip: Don’t ever book a room here.<\/em><\/p>\n

ps: I forgot to mention that 3 of the lamps in my room did not work. Man, you gotta love it. <\/p>\n
