5 star hotel

Post by Fire_Moose » Thu Aug 07, 2008 10:07 am

Last night my dad asked me how much i have spent on Burning Man.....my response was a LOT.

He then made the comment the i could stay in a 5 star hotel for the same price......hmm maybe I'll just do that next year. ;)

I'd think there's way more than five stars out there............

The good ones are 7 stars and don't advertise.

If you can get the other guests to agree, they will let you do just about anything.

A friend was at one in Thailand and the brunch was $450.
Everything is cheaper in Thailand and the exchange rate was good and this was a few years ago too.
He did say it was quite a meal.

actually, Nevada is very much like Switzerland in that regard. State Law Clearly Says "You can do whatever tickles your freaky fancy, nude or not, as long as you have enough Money."

I took a few summers off from Burning Man to go play full-time on my REAL boat... with real water... but there's no place in the world like Black Rock City.
