FORT LAUDERDALE
We arrived in Florida early this afternoon and took a cab to our Wyndham Palm-Aire Worldmark Resort not far away. The manager snagged us right out of the gate to sign us up to listen to a sales spiel tomorrow in exchange for some yacht tickets to cruise the canals and look at the way the rich and wealthy live. So we bit like an old Carp in murky water. They will have a hard time landing this old fish as we haven’t been happy with the way certain resorts are impossible to get into, like Saint Thomas in the Caribbean. We have been on a waiting list to get into that one for two years! Now you can’t convince me that we aren’t getting bumped by their favorites!
Our Wyndham two-bedroom unit is okay; adequate but nothing special or extra ordinary. It is on the third floor overlooking a parking lot and a noisy street. Had we gotten a room on the other side of the hallway, our balcony would have looked over into the interior courtyard and a large swimming pool. It would have been much less noisy, too. One would think if they had intentions of trying to sell us a $16,000 membership upgrade, schmoozing us with a great room should be considered. We are here for the next 5 days so we’ll see how it goes tomorrow.
