Road Trip Day 31

Randy came back from early fishing with a small perch and a large fish that tasted nasty. He fixed the fish for breakfast. We all had some toast and were off to the ferry on foot. It was cool morning so we opened up the house.

The kids loved the ferry ride. The twins wanted to look over the edge at the water. Probably the best past was renting an 8 seater golf cart. It was great to have the wind in our hair. Then we went out for lunch for some sea food. the kids were not fond fo the shrimp, crabs legs or lobster bisque. While Randy was trying to finish off the excess food I took everyone else to the park.

I just wanted to relax on the bench so I wouldn't help Kay onto the tire swing. She is amazing. She climbed on the top rail and dropped down the tire swing. got to love her ingenuity.

We then went to museum. cool boats. Kay got to learn how to make strong boats with twine. Then we went to a chocolate museum. Mostly a chocolate shop. Yum.

When we got back Randy and the twins napped and I took Reye to Conner's house to play the Wii. he is loving it. i sat around and chatted with Joann.

Wow the twins ae really taking a long nap. It is 6:30 and everyone is still sleeping. I went to make dinner and the chicken I asked Kay to get out was back in the freezer. Two instructions at once is a bad idea. I asked her to look and see how many pieces we had and then put it on the counter. Oh well, I didn't really want to cook. I grabbed the girls and set out to find some dinner.

When we got back Randy and the twins were out front getting ready to go fishing so we ate without him. After dinner Kay took the twins and Perta to join Randy fishing. Kay and Reye REALLY wanted to go back to Conner's to play the Wii again. Kay was a bit sad. The friends across the way didn't let her play today. she could hear them outside laughing. What's a mom to do. So back to Conner's we went.

It is nice being at their house. They are just real down to earth people. The kids were having fun and I just got to sit back and be with he adults. Conner got bored watching Kay and Reye hog the game to Robin took him to find Randy fishing. No sooner were they all back at the house. Petra had been worried. She had missed me. The twins were just beaming to see me. Love it that my kids are delighted to see me when apart for just an hour. Can't ever imagine being apart form them for more than a few hours.

It was late so when we got home we all just piled in bed. Reye is missing sharing the fun of being in the same room with all the other kids so I let him hang with us for a bit. He helped me sing Z was a wee little man.
