Towel origami, anyone?
I must not go to the right hotels: I’ve missed the whole towel origami craze that seems to be sweeping the hospitality world (especially, it seems, for popular honeymoon hotels. Or maybe it’s just honeymooners who take pictures of these creations). But it is pretty interesting, eh? I might just buy the book.
And if folding towels into animal shapes and putting sunglasses on them isn’t amusement enough when away from home, there’s always 50 Things to Do in a Hotel Room That Won’t Get You Arrested, another book that, according to the description on Amazon.com, “brings together the collective experience of conference connoisseurs and hotel veterans to create 50 blameless and absorbing ways to pass the time, using nothing but the items naturally found in any hotel room.”

My family went on a cruise this past summer in Europe and each evening a new “towel animal” was on the bed in our cabin. We saw the Vatican and ancient Roman ruins but my 7-year-old daughter mentions those towel creations more than anything else.

I believe this craze did actually start on cruise ships. I remember seeing it on a cruise I took about 8 years ago.
It’s sure better than bedbugs! (Another “latest craze” in hotels).

I got 2 DVDs from a site called www.FoldingMagic.com and loved them. Easier to follow than the books I got on towel origami. My favorite one on the DVDs is the skunk.
