What went wrong on The Fall Foliage Trip October 2024:

The lock on my overhead garage door wouldn't lock at 3:00am. 

My suitcase was delayed on the flight from PDX/SEA to Boston Logan.  I didn't get it until 3:20am.

The Lyft/Uber area was mass confusion at Logan Airport!  My first Lyft driver drove off.  I got the second Lyft driver only because the kindness of a stranger.

Someone made a $350(estimate) reservation for me the night before I arrived without my knowledge so my current reservation was cancelled because I had failed to show up the day before. 

The television set up was super complicated so I missed watching my television show on Wednesday evening except for the last 10 minutes.

I couldn't get the shower to turn on and then when I finally did I couldn't get it to shut off.  The next morning I washed my hair under tub faucet and then couldn't get the shower to turn on.

The television remote would not work in one hotel.  I was told it was fresh out of the box and had not been reset.

The phones did not work in two hotels.

I was not called for my wake-up call.

I lost my gloves that I wore on Mount Washington.

My cheeseburger and fries lunch was taken so it was cooked separately.  I finished eating it on the motorcoach.

The Inn music played so loud in my room the second night of my stay that I couldn't sleep.

I had ordered Pan Seared Tuna for dinner not realizing that the tuna would be raw!  I had a salad and dinner roll with butter for dinner.

I absolutely dislike salads made with spiky and stiff lettuce.  And food stacked on top of each other.  

I missed my connecting flight in Seattle so I was booked on the next flight.  I didn't get home until 1:30am.

My trip started badly and ended badly.
