Ricardo: I’m making one more pass
and if we don’t see a sign for the hotel, I’m
heading back into town. I’m tired
and I want a shower.
Marsha: I’m sure we’ll find it. When I talked to
the desk clerk, she said that the hotel
is hidden away behind some trees
and to keep an eye out for their white
sign.
Ricardo: Did she say blink and you’ll miss
it? Because we’ve driven past this
stretch three times and I don’t see a
sign.
Marsha: She just said that they’re a little
off the beaten path.
Ricardo: If they know that their hotel is so hard
to find, why don’t they make it more
prominent with some kind of
landmark?
Marsha: That’s part of the charm of
a small hotel hideaway. It doesn’t
have neon signs and it’s tucked
away far from the tourist areas.
Ricardo: That’s all good and fine, but we have
to find it first. Okay, this is the last pass.
Keep your eyes peeled.
Marsha: There it is! I’ve spotted the
sign. It’s over there, see?
Ricardo: Yeah, now I see it. Geez,
it’s like finding a needle in a
haystack!
