He even tried it twice, but I didn&#8217;t have the heart to tell him what was wrong. Guys that technically challenged probably shouldn&#8217;t watch any more TV. I slept off and on and listened to a couple of podcasts to pass the time.<\/p>\n<p>After a long wait in a taxi line and a short ride we&#8217;re at the hotel. We&#8217;re staying at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.radisson.com\/torontoca_airport\">Radisson Airport<\/a> and the rooms are quite nice and we hit the local Kelsey&#8217;s for dinner. Over dinner I got to know my team mates a little better as they are both new on the project and work on different areas that I do. Now I&#8217;m back in the room watching a little TV, without any help from my seat mate! It&#8217;s warmer that Winnipeg at +4, but raining. No matter, we&#8217;re stuck at the hotel without a car, so It will most likely be work and sleep for most of the week.<\/p>\n<p>Radisson&#8217;s have <a href=\"http:\/\/www.selectcomfort.ca\/\">sleep number beds<\/a>, so I&#8217;ll get to check it out for a few days. Since we&#8217;re looking at a new bed for home and I know somebody who can get me a great deal on a bed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a while since I&#8217;ve been in Toronto on business but this afternoon I flew in for four days of education with Agfa for a project I&#8217;m working on with two other team members.&nbsp; The flight down on Westjet was uneventful except for the guy in the middle seat who thought he owned the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5,19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-313","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-travel","category-work"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=313"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/313\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=313"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bigdadoo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
