Dymaxion revisited

Last time I was in Madrid was on my honeymoon when, after a 17 HOUR! flight in coach, we reached the hotel only to discover that they'd lost our reservations and we were then schlepped over to another hideously dark hotel where we had a lovely bridal suite with two camp beds pushed together and a balcony view of the the drug dealer to the right, the brothel to the left, and the crew shooting a film directly below.

We checked out at one AM and left the country after a total of nine hours.

If we'd known that there would be a Buckminster Fuller exhibit at the Ivorypress Art + Books, we might have hung around for another day.

Maybe.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
