Riding a typhoon out in what amounts to a mobile home on wheels wasn't fun.

But a hotel? Sheesh.

If you booked a room there, do you get your Marriott points anyway?

You know those "hotel burns...airplane crashes...(name your disaster) in any part of the world news reports where no matter if it is in Albania or Zaire, you'll hear "X Americans died in it." That's the first thing I thought of...actually before global warming.
