Moving on Up

After 10 days on the 33rd floor, Gary found out that Boeing authorizes stays on the concierge level. So we packed up and moved to the 47th floor on Friday night. Room is basically the same, but with turn down service and chocolate every night! Also included is access to the Towers Spa and Exercise Club which has a fitness room, group classes, pool, whirlpool, sauna and cozy quiet room with actual comfy sofas and chairs(really excited to sit somewhere other than the bed in our room). All of this comes with just a few rules that are posted and STRICTLY enforced for the good of all. Needless to say, we both inadvertently broke some rules. Gary got in trouble for swimming without a cap. I was asked to remove my eye makeup, then made to leave the pool area to take off my wedding rings (no jewelry in the pool). Good thing neither one of us has a tattoo. Can't even come in with a tattoo. Kind of reminded me of being on Gary's boat in Alaska. Now that we have it all down, I think we will do fine.

Also included on this level is the full American breakfast every morning and happy hour appetizers and drinks every evening from 5pm to midnight. First day at cocktail hour we ran into an old colleague (Kevin)of Gary's from 6 years ago in Everett. It was refreshing to participate in a conversation in English (with someone other than Gary). ;)


Well, with all this access to free food and drink it is a really good thing that I can now go work out daily, which is where I am headed now!

Stay tuned for an exciting post with video of our trip to the Nagoya Castle Evening Festival...coming soon!
