Albany airport

Yesterday April 27th we went to the airport. it was ok but it wasnt planned very well. they thought we had more time then we did so everything they had planned was either cut short or we just didnt do it. But we did get to learn about the Million Air.This is a world class General aviation club. And it was the first of its kind.But other then that it was boring . we walked around the airport and learned which resturants the they have and stuff.

Crowne Plaza

Yesterday we went to the crowne plaza for our internship day. When we first got there we went to a meeting with all the managers and the gm of the hotel. we learned about what each of them do on a daily basis and got to ask them questions. After the meeting we went on a tour around the hotel. it was really fun and the hotel is really nice.

Homewood Suites

So yesterday March 31st we went to the hilton homewood suites on wolf road. Its really nice there and it actully does make you feel like your at a home away from home. The main lobby is really nice and my favorite room was the studio. I like it a lot more then the marriott and the people seem alot more personable then they do at other places.

Visitor center.

Yesterday once again we weren't going to the Marriott so we went to the Albany visitor center in Quakenbush square.While there we went to the planetarium and watched a movie about the history of Albany and we also took a tour of the center. The lady (part owner ) from the Aqua duck came and we all got a little rubber duck to take home. I learned a lot of stuff that i didn't know before about Albany and had fun wile i was there.

Mansion Hill Inn

So Lately we Haven't been going to the Marriott Because of the current economic situation everyone is in. So last week instead of doing nothing we went to to the Mansion hill Inn (which our teacher owns). While there we took a tour of the property and a few other kids and I cooked for the rest of the class. over all it was fun and it was really nice to do something different for a change.

So next week i will fill you into more of what we do. Bye

The Marriott (2/03/09)

Yesterday at the Marriott i was in housekeeping. I was on the 8th floor with Naldine. There was kinda a language barrier so I wasn't able to get a lot from her but i did learn a few things . First off the basic yesterday was appreciation , so I had to look for certain things that showed how the guest are appreciated in the hotel. One thing i seen was how each room is given water bottles and packets of Fine Tea. Another thing was where a person forgot his tie so we sent it to the front desk right away so they could try to get the tie back to the costumer that forgot it.
