Minus: Driving is grueling out here. Between the blind intersections, the twisting hills, the utter lack of shoulders, the invisible micro-font street signs, and good lord the high speeds, I need a nap after the two-mile trip between campus and hotel.
Plus: On the other hand, they don't mess around with the bad-for-you food. The breakfast buffet today had a Dunkins-eque array of doughnuts - real ones, not little dinky ones. And the only protein at breakfast was the cream for the coffee. Perfect. Dinner tonight was another buffet, with three entree choices: chicken, sirloin, or fish. The steamed vegetables were for the vegetarians.
Minus: You don't have to walk far to get another cup of coffee, but so far it's uniformly swill. Can anyone make Green Mountain - the ubiquitous campus coffee - taste good?
Plus: The gas stations sell real beer.
