Chapter 33 - Magical Burgers Attack (1/2)
When the 3 families reached the top floor, it didn't take long for them to find the Presidential Suite.
”It says Presidential Suite right there,” Kristine said as she pointed to a sign that said Room 818 and underneath it ”Presidential Suite”.
Bradley slid the card in the lock and opened the door.
”Oh wow,” Hermione said as she looked around the suite. ”It's beautiful!”
The suite had beautiful white sofas and lounge chairs with chandeliers hanging on the ceiling. The black wooden dining table had seats for 10 and there was a bar next to the dining table. Beautiful paintings were hung on the walls giving the room a more elegant feeling.
”Wow, the view here is amazing. We can see the harbor, the lit buildings, and just everything that makes this place so beautiful!” Mrs. Alder exclaimed as she rushed to the windows.
Kristine continued to gawk at the suite without saying anything.
Chris simply went to the couch and lied down.
'Goodness this is one extremely comfortable couch,' Chris thought as he quickly grew a bit sleepy, but Bradley quickly snapped him out of it.
”Alright, I suppose Martin really did treat us big time,” Bradley said. ”There should be 3 rooms in this room with each one having its own bathroom. We'll choose 1 room each. Like Martin said, we'll go down in about an hour so rest up a bit before we go,”
The 3 families quickly chose their rooms and put their luggage in their respective rooms. The Evergreen Family room consisted of two beds, two lounge chairs and a wonderful view through a glass window. Lorraine quickly organized their luggage before going on the bed.
”We really did need this vacation Bradley. How long has it been since we've been on a trip?”Lorraine asked.
”Well, you know that work has to be done,” Bradley said as he started to change.
”It's been nearly 3 years since we've had a vacation as good as this together,” Lorraine said. ”Let's make the most out of this one. Who knows when you're going to be this free again?”
”Hey hurry up, we're done setting up a game of Monopoly!” Mr. Granger said.
Chris immediately nodded and picked his character.
”Monopoly what is that?” Bradley asked. ”Why don't we play chess? Everyone here should be familiar with that game,”
”Of course, we did think that, but it's a 2 player game and we want to include everyone at once,” Mr. Alder said.
”Father, Monopoly is a popular Muggle game and I've heard about it from some people,” Chris said. ”It's quite simple...”
Chris started explaining how the game worked and Bradley and Lorraine were fascinated.
”Well I suppose it's time to show the skills I have from years of owning a business. Let's play,” Bradley said as he and Lorraine sat down on the dining table to pick their character.
...
An hour passed and it was Bradley who was taking the lead. However, he saw that an hour passed and stopped the game.
”Well we can continue this later,” Bradley said. ”We have to meet up with Martin now,”
Everyone started leaving the room one by one without cleaning up the dining table so that they could continue the game later.
Chris hurriedly went to his room to get his wand that he packed in his bag.
When they went downstairs, Martin was already there to meet them.
”Hey Bradley, so how do you like your suite? It's good right? I helped design a huge portion of it,” Martin said proudly.
”It's great. The room is a masterpiece,” Bradley said. ”You really are treating me well old friend,”
”Like I said, it's really nothing compared to what you gave me for the past few years. Well then shall we depart to eat?” Martin asked.
Everyone nodded.
”Alright then so here are our choices. There's a Steakhouse near here that's for Muggles, a burger restaurant near here for mainly wizards and witches. I'm sure you people in Europe don't get burgers over there,” Martin said. He pointed out 3 other restaurants that were nearby the hotel.
”I think we should go to the burger restaurant,” Hermione said. ”It is something we have never tried before so let's broaden our horizons,”
”Alright then Miss Granger, the burger restaurant it is,” Martin said. He led the family outside and there was a limousine that was even bigger than the one yesterday waiting for them.
A bell boy opened the car door.
”Please get in,” the bell boy said. Everyone got in one by one and Martin was the last one to get in.
”To Magical Burgers please,” Martin said.
”Yes sir,” The driver said and he started driving the car.
