While we were in Manassa Virginia, we stayed at a local motel. And, like most motels, they offered a free continental breakfast every morning.

The breakfast started at 5:30 and ended at 9:00 and offered the standard fare of danish, donuts and bagels. Now, while I am not one to eat those things, I do like to grab a cup of coffee and the news paper and then take them back to my room.

Well, the first morning, I went down to the lobby around 7:30 to get a cup of coffee. When I got there, the only people there were four extremely large people with their plates loaded with danish.

These people were huge! The chairs fit them the way that bicycle seats fit normal people. I don’t imagine that you could get two of them in a single bed so it is a good thing that the rooms all had two queen size beds.

Watching them eat was not a pleasant sight so I got my coffee and left. When I came back for a second cup a half hour later, they were still the only ones there and they were still eating. The buffet had pretty much been emptied and their plates were now full of bagels.

This pattern continued for the duration of our stay. And, judging by the number of cars in the parking lot, I would say that there were only a half dozen of us staying there, so the majority of that breakfast was consumed by four very large adults.

I wonder what those bariatric misfits did for lunch?
