[blindkid] Convention hotel questions

[Richard Holloway]

Nick,

The Tower may be a bit more convenient for NFB General session access  
but things are spread all over the Tower and both Atrium buildings. As  
long as you're in the Hilton itself, you'll be close to some things  
and further from others. It is a beautiful place, but really is spread  
out a lot.

Is there something in particular you want to be near? I expect rooms  
are all assigned for the meetings by now-- something could probably be  
looked up. One thing for certain, this isn't like Detroit where you'll  
be outside crossing the street in traffic to get to a meeting. In fact  
all I know of that you'll have to go outside for, is to get to the  
outdoor pool, so if you don't mind the indoor pool, you could rather  
happily stay in air conditioned comfort all week and just order room  
service or eat in the hotel.

With that said though, I HIGHLY suggest you go out to the multi-acre  
lawn area near the pool with the walking track and the Koi pond and  
the statues on the lawn. It is absolutely beautiful back there!

Richard
