That odor just permeates the entire room and you can&#8217;t get rid of that In-N-Out smell.<\/p>\n<p>Brian, Jay and Becca initially planned on eating at In-N-Out, but Brian said it was way too crowded.  There was no place to sit.  As a last resort, they decided to take the food &#8220;to go&#8221; and take it back to our hotel.  <\/p>\n<p>In the elevator, Brian asked Jay if he wanted to eat in their room or in ours.  Without missing a beat, Jay said he&#8217;d like to eat in our room because he didn&#8217;t want to stink up their room.  A stranger in the elevator laughed and said, &#8220;That&#8217;s some forward-thinking right there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As soon as they were done eating, I made Brian take out the In-N-Out sacks and leave it in the hallway for the housekeeping staff to pick up.  It&#8217;s good burgers, but I can&#8217;t stand that smell.  Blech.  I think the hotel staff and other guests were probably ticked off at us because the hallway stank of In-N-Out the next morning.  LOL.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jay and Brian playing with the touch-screen computer in the lobby..<\/strong><br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/4373117194\/\"  title=\"IMG_9444 by Ching, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"pic\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2758\/4373117194_c6cd5c38c3.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"IMG_9444\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/4372365561\/\"  title=\"IMG_9445 by Ching, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4039\/4372365561_69db3a7381.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"pic\" alt=\"IMG_9445\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/4372365749\/\"  title=\"IMG_9447 by Ching, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4029\/4372365749_b5b8857bfa.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"pic\" alt=\"IMG_9447\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The touch-screen computer thing was really neat.
