Funny you say that. A few months ago, a friend and I were at a hotel in Dinard, France (yes, France...***blush**).
It was a lovely hotel overlooking the English Channel and we headed to the bar before dinner. A beautiful bar...softly lighted, wood-paneled. We were the only ones there so we took a seat and waited.
Then we noticed the bar. Heavily polished dark wood backed by lighted shelves, soft up-lights under the bar...just like in The Shining. We commented on how spooky it was.
And then the bartender, dressed in a tux, just "appeared"!
Well, he had been kneeling behind the bar, but when he stood up and those bar lights illumined his face from below...we almost bolted! LOL!
I will always believe he knew exactly what he was about.
