Gag me with a yuri!

Back at the begining of November, Otis, Ethan and I spent the night at the New Sanno (yes, I go every chance I get). We had dinner at the hotel in the Emporium restaurant. When we sat down at our table, I was assaulted by the most horrific smell! All through dinner I was complaining "What in the hell is that smell?!?!" "OMG, do you smell that?". Otis claimed he didn't smell anything. Eventually I figured out that it was the huge bouquet of flowers right next to our table. More specifically.....the lilies. Seriously, it was hideous. I guess I've never really smelled a lily, they're beautiful flowers and really nice to look at.....but they reek! It honestly ruined my meal.> >

Six weeks later was my getaway weekend back to the Sanno, I walked into the lobby and the stink hit me like a brick wall! There they were, right at the entrance to the hotel, a huge bouquet of lilies! They funked up the entire lobby. Damn it!

Later that night, as I exited the elevator at Tokyo City View, I was nearly knocked unconsious by stench that greeted me. This time, I knew exactly what it was, but I was totally unprepared for what I found as I rounded the corner .....

Better add that to your swap-bot profile, no lilies or lily-scented stuff! ^^

I can't believe that tree, wow!

LOL - hadn't thought of that! I don't think I've ever smelled anything lily-scented, that's a scarey!

that's amazing! I hate the smell, too. You'd think the restaurant would complain?
