Question
Hopefully, regarding your travel expertise!  

if you cant help, maybe you can direct me to someone who knows.

Here goes:  I need the name of the Main Street Hotel where you'd hop on board but never say bon voyage.  This "vessel" will never head out to sea, so dont worry about missing the boat?  

(rt 66, i've heard it called the Main Street of America,i know this hotel must be in the western US.)

Hope you can help, have a nice day!

Hi Cheryl
Route 66 doesn't even come close to Idaho, but I enjoy researching travel trivia.  Here's one to look up: The oldest hotel on Route 66 is the Eagle Hotel in Wilmington, Illinois.  Though sitting empty today, the 1836 hotel that once serviced stagecoach travelers, has plans of restoration.  Maybe instead of a cruise ship theme it's a stage coach theme?

It's a thought!
