I'd rather nurse in a quiet, cushy lounge as opposed to a hard bench in a 
high-traffic area. In a strange place, it's nice having some pointers on 
finding such a spot. I don't *have* to have one, but I'd just as soon be 
comfortable as not. Being discreet isn't so much an issue as my 
appreciating a comfy spot to rest my bones. :-)

regards,
Julia
