OK...I just returned this weekend from a short getaway and stayed at a few B&Bs. All wonderful properties but they all had one little problem in common - plugging in chargers for electronic devices. Only one place (an inn-mate's) had an outlet adapter with additional plugs, but I still had a little trouble getting to it. (Sorry...) The other places required crawling around on the floor, unplugging other plugs to free up a plug that would allow my larger cellphone charger plug.
Even if you use your laptop on the battery, at some point it's probably going to need to be charged in. And what to do if both members in the party have laptops & cellphones, iPods, Blackberrys or whatever? I know how hard it is to anticipate where people are going to need a plug for all this stuff but think how comical it is when a fifty-something year old is crawling around on the floor searching for an electrical outlet!
I also know that we don't think that folks coming to stay with us will have all these electronics, but we just had a couple here for their anniversary with 2 laptops & 2 cellphones. I'm checking all my rooms to see if the power strips are handy and if the lamps are plugged into a socket where a larger cell phone charger can fit in the same outlet.
This is why it's good to visit other places
Just something to think about....
