I am finally going to take a tour of the Stanley Hotel in about a week. I am so excited. I have been wanting to take a tour or stay there for so long, ever since I saw the movie. Now I know that the movie wasn't filmed at the actual Stanley Hotel, but that the hotel was the one used in the book. I loved the book, and look forward to walking the halls that lead King to write THE SHINING.
Now, for the second part of this. Has anyone been there? Is there something I should be looking for? The tour is 90 minutes and I am sure there is a lot to look out (I don't want to get overwhelmed). There have been times when I have been overwhelmed by the obscene beauty of things. I mean has anyone ever been to Hearst Castle? It is a picture of opulence at its finest. The gold crown molding, statues, and wallpaper in itself is something to take in, Hearst Castle is very over the top.
I will, of course, post pictures here after I get back. I will also update my blog then. I am hoping to get some things done on this little road trip of mine. One of the things I really am looking forward to, beside the Stanley Hotel, is a stop at IKEA. I can't tell you guys out there in internet land how much I miss IKEA. Just being able to walk through an IKEA is something that excites me. Strange how the little things are what makes us shiver in antici---pation.
