Decided that since St. Louis is cold and nasty in mid-November (and Chicagomwhere I sat Part 1 is even worse) I would look for nicer places, so I just booked a flight as well as hotel in Tampa, Florida... Take a few days before and after the exam while I'm down there to make it more enjoyable. Best part is that they are holding the exam at the Marriott so I booked a room there... Nice to just walk from a nice lunch into the exam room rather than stressing with cabs and so forth.
Definitely a good idea Aleksander! Enjoy your vacation as much as possible and good luck on the exam. Thanks, Suzanne
