We’re #1! – Nastiest Hotel in the World
We finally made it to the top of one of those year-end lists, y'all!
It's Trip Advisor's 2010 Dirtiest Hotels list, and our very own Heritage Marina kicked serious ass to get to #1. (I know it's a U.S. list, but everyone knows we're the only country that counts, so by the transitive property of, like, math, I'm declaring it the #1 spot on the planet.)
Images of filth and glory after the jump...
Flag Change at Alcatraz
A bit of a special moment on The Rock that I happened to see while on a tour with my visiting parents. I dig the precision and respect the officers give to the process.
(Be sure to lower your computer's volume because the wind really batters the microphone, especially in the beginning; the sound of the ratchet later is pretty cool, though.)
