...I would so sleep in that house from the birds....<br /><br />I have slept in many strange places, the Philadelphia airport, the back seat of a car in the middle of nowhere Maine, my office. I guess you could say I sleep around....William Dameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10129769129251689759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389638963547998271.post-73898000347301764632012-01-05T15:56:54.818-08:002012-01-05T15:56:54.818-08:00I once slept on a bench in Paddington Station in L...I once slept on a bench in Paddington Station in London. My wife and I missed the last train from London to Oxford, didn't have enough money for a hotel room (I was in grad school; she was substitute teaching), and couldn't find an all-night coffee shop to hang out in. So, we huddled together (it was late fall) and slept on a bench until finally one of stationmasters told us that the morning train to Oxford was on the platform and we could get on. That was about 3 am. I still remember how warm the train was, and how well I slept until we finally left the station.Michael Ratcliffehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02469869423353363535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389638963547998271.post-61520087528741824892012-01-05T12:46:44.071-08:002012-01-05T12:46:44.071-08:00Not sure I've slept in strange places.
Howev...Not sure I've slept in strange places. <br /><br />However, Bodega Bay and "The Birds" still freak me out. As a child, I lived up the road in Rio Nido (near Guerneville). My parents--in some sort of funny parental joke, kinds that I now play on my kids--let me and my siblings watch "The Birds." I might've been 7 or 8 at the time. And then we'd spend days out at Goat Rock, Shell Beach, and Bodega Bay (even having hot cocoa at the cliff restaurant featured in the movie); outings that would take all day and then we'd be driving home as dusk turned to night. It was always the scariest drive because I kept looking out the windows, waiting for the birds to show up and follow us. That ride home on the winding roads always seemed to so long until I was in the comfort of my bed.<br /><br />A couple of years ago I had the pleasure of taking my kiddos and husband out that way to my "stomping" grounds and while my husband totally dug the cafe from "Cape Fear," I was just glad it was daylight when we were driving through. ;)Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07780214989371447483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389638963547998271.post-45069038099432829792012-01-05T12:45:23.327-08:002012-01-05T12:45:23.327-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07780214989371447483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389638963547998271.post-70485667737982647952012-01-05T12:37:36.922-08:002012-01-05T12:37:36.922-08:00I didn't know about the Tippi Barbie!!

I'll have to check it out.<br /><br />I've never slept anywhere strange or interesting or different, other than camping, but lots of people sleep out of doors. Should I put that on my bucket-list? Sleep somewhere odd before I go? Hmmm...Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18196096131750922174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389638963547998271.post-91082729695430465592012-01-05T03:41:26.891-08:002012-01-05T03:41:26.891-08:00I slept in an igloo once, on reindeer skin too.I slept in an igloo once, on reindeer skin too.Sally Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10446511924940276964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389638963547998271.post-25108242157810733082012-01-05T02:24:16.432-08:002012-01-05T02:24:16.432-08:00The most interesting place I've spent the nigh...The most interesting place I've spent the night would have to be the death metal night club called "Alcatraz".Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17425667772673267769noreply@blogger.com
