Chris,

The convention agenda contains a detailed description of the 
hotel.  I always use that to refresh my memory.  The agenda was 
e-mailed out about a week ago.

It's a fairly easy hotel to get around.  When you go in the front 
door, there is a small lobby, with the front desk on the right 
and the elevators on the left.  In front of you is a set of glass 
doors, often open, that goes into the atrium.  The atrium 
contains the ice rink, where there is usually music.  As you go 
through the doors to the atrium, four meeting rooms are on the 
left--the Washington, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia.  (I may 
have the order wrong.)  the Pennsylvania room is on the right.  
The meetings are usually in the Maryland and Virginia rooms, 
which are the farthest from the entrance.

On the right, there is an area with tables and chairs.  Beyond 
that, going around to your right, there is a set of steps going 
up to the restaurant.
There is also a small shop where you can buy ice cream and other 
unhealthy goodies.

the ice rink is in the middle, so you are always walking around 
it.  There are many plants along the wall, so unless I am looking 
for a specific doorway, I stay closer to the middle.  The 
registration table and any other tables are usually in front of 
the meeting rooms.

 Hi everyone,

 I've been coming to state conventions for a while now, but have
been going
 sighted guide for the majority of the time during those
conventions.  Yes,
 I admit it! :) This year, I want to try to navigate the hotel as
 independently as I can during the convention.  So, do any of you
have any
 tips for me on navigating the hotel with a cane, especially the
convention
 meeting rooms (getting there, too) and the exhibit hall? Any
information
 you provide would be appreciated! Thanks! See you at convention!

 Chris
