On the way back down when the Trebek tape started, Iris and Lola complained loudly.

How weird to make the experience all about her.<br /><br />The last time I was there was over 20 years ago when I was pregnant with my first kid. I don't know if they still use those old school buses to get people up and down the mountain, but at that time it was a little like being hustled off to 4th grade. Appropriately, school buses are not made for extremely pregnant women (as in nearly nine months). So I had to sit sideways. Fortunately the bus wasn't full. Sadly we had bought tickets for two tours and we had to come back down the mountain to catch the second tour. There was no mechanism for staying up there and then catching a second tour. The tour guide told me that occasionally the park service let the staff have pool parties in the outside pool. I would LOVE to get a tour of Hearst Castle from Iris.Claire M.
