Fast Work from Chicon

I got an email from Hyatt reservations today extending my hotel stay by the one additional day I requested. As I wrote two days ago, a complication with our Amtrak return trip meant we needed to stay long enough that we were beyond the end of the shoulder nights that Chicon 8 had blocked. I'm impressed that they were able to turn around the request so quickly. This means we won't have to waste a day changing hotels. And thanks to the California Zephyr having an afternoon departure, we won't even have to rush checking out of the hotel room, but instead can make our way over to Union Station and wait for our train in their magnificent and spacious Metropolitan Lounge. So some travel plans are indeed working out.
