LOBBY 8 PM: Guests watch as a futile attempt to hold back the
rising water takes place in the lobby entrance. Moses was unavailable for comment. |

Sandbags and cinder blocks were used to hold off rising water.
I told them this wouldn't work but it was fun watching them try to prove me wrong. |

A nice Koi pond used to exist where those shrubberies
are in the distance. A shrubbery? Yes, a shrubbery. |

The basement filling up was very dramatic after the lobby
began ''equalizing'' last night. Here it is in the morning. Housekeeping used to be down there. I don't think
anyone is going to fix my bed for me today. |

LOBBY 9 AM: Aftermath!
I wanted to take a picture when the lobby was filled with 3 feet of water, but getting electrocuted didn't interest me.
No, wait, I'm sorry -- this is a picture of the
lobby after the Lakers-Sixers game ended. Sorry, my bad. |

An illustration of how high the water got during the
night. Before the wall collapsed you could see rising water on the other side of the lobby window like a fish tank.
Scary. |

The guilty culprit. A door existed here at one point
and sheetrock was used to hold conceal it. God can see through sheetrock, apparently. |

One view of the once pristine blue swimming pool.
It's more... natural now. |

The standard brochures box was completely covered with
flood water. Guess I won't be going to any monuments today. |

The front desk is overturned. I have fond recollections
of arguing about my phone bill at this countertop. Sigh. Oh, the memories. |

Since the computer was lost in the lobby, management had
to walk from room to room to find vacancies for arriving guests too stupid to turn around or find some other ''not
underwater'' hotel. |

I moved the rental truck early on in the evening to
avoid having to have it replaced and lose valuable time in my life dealing with insurance and paperwork. Some
people apparently like to do that stuff, so more power to them. |

Another view of the pool from my hotel room.
Looks like chocolate milk. |

A short MPG movie of what happens when a car goes
completely underwater and then emerges the next morning. It's pissed. |

Another MPG movie of what happens when an elevator
goes into a flooded basement and then comes back up to the 4th floor for air. Not happy. |

LOBBY 3 PM:All that annoying furniture and debris
has been removed, as have the walls. Maybe I should park over there. |
