On the way to breakfast I stopped in to break down a Rs. 1000 note to hundreds so that I would have smaller bills for tipping. The manager at the desk said, "Mr. Robert, would it be possible to have a meeting with Madame and yourself after breakfast?". I of course agreed and we met with him after finishing our eggs.
It turns out he wanted some feedback on what they were doing wrong and right at the hotel. We are not really complainers and realize that we are not staying at a 5 star resort. We mentioned that his staff do a great job and anything that we have requested has been taken care of promptly. There were a couple of small things that we mentioned that they could improve on for the benefit of all guests. He thanked us for taking the time to meet with him and stated that for the next three nights he would like to upgrade us to a suite........perfect!
We went back to our room and when we finished our "we just got upgraded to a suite happy dance" we packed all our gear so they could switch us over during the day.
At the beach we went back to the Cafe Roma beach shack. Anthony, the owner of the shack cooked us up some wicked chicken biriyani. I commented that it was the best I ever had and asked how he makes the rice so perfect without sticking (like mine always does)and he invited me into the kitchen for a cooking lesson. What great fun!
Random ThoughtI wish someone would rent me a sand wedge and a dozen golf balls.
