VAN TO BE PROVIDED FOR SAN LUIS OBISPO TOURING ADVENTURES

Planning is underway to provide special transportation for spouses and guests who would like to see some of the local sights while the Council of Presidents Annual Meeting is in session.

A van is now scheduled to leave the Embassy Suites Hotel sometime around 9:00am with an initial destination the Madonna Inn, considered a “must see” attraction on the Central Coast. The van will return to the hotel for the scheduled luncheon.

This is from an inn brochure:

A landmark on California’s Central Coast for over forty-five years! The world-renowned Madonna Inn located in the heart of San Luis Obispo offers 109 rooms, uniquely decorated with a special theme and color scheme, no two alike! Enjoy your favorite meal in our Copper Café and Pastry Shop or Alex Madonna’s Gold Rush Steak House. Dance the night away in the Silver Bar Cocktail Lounge. Shop in one of our three specialty stores: Classic Gourmet and Wine Shop, “My Favorite Things” Boutique, and The Brass Tower Men’s Clothing Store. Indulge in a bit of pampering in the Whispering Hills Massage Center. We welcome your visit to our first-class resort located of Highway 101 halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles.

Here’s the excerpt from the brochure: MEN’S ROOM AT MADONNA INN:

“A trip to San Luis Obispo wouldn’t be complete without visiting the men’s room at the Madonna Inn. As crazy as it sounds, this room is a popular stop for both men and women. Unfortunately, if you’re a man and need to use this for it’s original purpose, be prepared to be interrupted by giggling women with cameras. Madonna Inn is a motel with each room having its own theme (like the caveman room). There is also a restaurant, wine cellar, and a few shops in the main building. Mrs. Madonna loved the color pink which you’ll see everywhere but luckily they haven’t repainted in awhile so it’s not as fluorescent as it once was. Once you enter the main building, go down the staircase at the right. This will take you to the wine cellar, and pay phone in the Flintstones-like rock cave. The men’s restroom is to the left. Here you’ll find the attraction… a urinal that looks like a waterfall which is activated when you break a beam of light. Yep, that’s it!”

Plans for the afternoon are still incomplete; however, a visit to the downtown area of San Luis Obispo might prove an interesting and rewarding adventure.
