That's why I'm going for a flight back, especially if I cross seven airports and have a random overnight in a different country. :-:

The brisket was very good. I have had better baby backs and turkey elsewhere, but the brisket can hold its own with any place I've been the last six months. And, that includes five places in Kansas City, four in Lockhart, one in Lexington, one in Taylor, and one in Driftwood. Best regards, William R.

Yup, it is operated by ASKY. But ASKY doesn't have online booking. I think I'll need a real travel agent to book this one. It'll have to wait until I'm back on Tuesday. I'm also a bit put off by the $131 visa that I'd need if I choose to depart the airport at midnight when I arrive in Togo. The more I think about that the more I really need to reconsider how I'll be packing for this trip. :eek:

It's a chain, but it's not bad. A lot better than Bill Miller's, IMHO. If you order brisket, order it "moist with a lot of crisp, outside edges". Most places call this simply "burnt ends", but that seems to be a lost concept at Rudy's. The guy taking my order knew what I wanted though and it was successfully relayed to the carvers.

hire a car and driver > flying > renting a car and driving yourself. And I'm not 100% sure about the first one in the grand scheme of things, too. :-: |

I wouldn't count on being able to overnight in the Airport without having to clear customs/immigration. At a small West African airport like that, they may just close up the terminal in the evening.

Getting a nice big downpour here. Perfect day to take a nap. I am envious of my daughter who is napping.

I am getting to experience all of the joys of the LA freeway system today.

'lo, Box. In between conference calls. Next one is at 1pm EST. :(
While on conference calls this morning I was surfing the net looking for light fixtures, bathroom fixtures, doorknobs, medicine cabinets, and all those insanely frustrating things I now need to acquire as we are in the finishing phase of the construction of Lake Brit. I....do....not....like....having to choose all this cr*p. Please, someone, put me out of my misery and do it for me...:rolleyes: |
