Bed situation.

I made the unfortunate mistake two days ago of not leaving enough stuff on my bed to make it look occupied to house keeping. This created a chain reaction which leads to my current situation of changing beds two nights in a row and having to sleep in a bed that had been slept in previously on both nights. 

It started by house keeping changing my bed instead of one of the ones that checked out. I was downstairs for most of the day so I didn't notice this until 10PM when I came upstairs to put my laptop away and get ready for bed. I went over to locker to lock up my stuff and realized someone was sleeping in my beds. I then looked around and saw that all the beds were occupied and one was unoccupied but looked slept in. I eventually made the executive decision to just continue my evening routine of showering and brushing my teeth and then going to bed - even if it wasn't into my own bed.

The following day I tricked house keeping into making my new bed by leaving it clear again but this time I came up before check-in and put my two jackets on the bed to "mark it" as being my own. Thinking the battle was over and I had emerged victorious I headed back downstairs. Once more I came back to my room in the evening and once again THERE WAS SOMEONE SLEEPING IN MY BED AGAIN. This person had taken the care to remove my jackets from my bed and proceed to occupy it. Once again I was forced to sleep in a new bed that had to been made since the previous occupant had checked out. 

I finally decided to take drastic action. I woke up before house keeping again, cleared my bed and then proceeded to sit in the room and wait for house keeping to come. By doing this I was finally able to get everything back on track and although I have a new bed it's at least still a top bunk and has clean sheets on it. Problem solved.

Here is a picture of me eating some sushi I got across the street for $5NZD ($3.55CAD)
