That’s right I am back. Having been at the North Virginia FireRescue & EMS Expo all this past weekend (Dec 2 -4 2011) I can say that I had a great time. I met a lot of fire and EMS guys. I can say that there is a ton of equipment out for the Fire and EMS organizations and to go through every booth at the expo was very hard. I spent alot of time talking to vendors from all over the East Coast.
Now no doubt I had fun at the Expo. However during the 3 days that I stayed in Chantilly, Virginia I had the pleasure of staying at at the Fairfield Inn Marriott. It was quiet and included a King Size bed which was a nice touch. We stayed on the second floor and had a breakfast included in our $69 rate. What a deal.
During our stay we ate at the Steakhouse right near the hotel. It was great, the service was fast and pleasant. In addition we found this little barbecue place near the Dulles Expo Center. In fact it was within walking distance of the Expo. I had a great pulled pork sandwich on Saturday and on Sunday I ate a Turkey Hot Cold sandwich. Wow it was really good!
So my advice is for anyone looking to visit Chantilly Virginia you might find the food really good. I in fact will be coming back next year to the 2012 expo.
