Day 5 Friday
January 16, 2009
We woke today to very overcast skies, and cooler temps, but no rain. Albert had been sneezing all night, it’s official he has a cold. So after breakfast he went to nap. I took R to the kids club. She wanted me to stay, so I plunked myself on a beach chair in the ‘yard’ of the kids club. I read my book. Albert came later, shortly before lunch. At this point I was queezy, and went to nap instead of lunch. Sleep cures all. In the afternoon dad knocked on our door saying R’s friends were waiting for her at the pool. R was sleeping, but as soon as I said “Rebecca your friends are waiting for you”, she sits upright and repeats “S and N are waiting for me”. She bolts out of bed and to the door. I’ve never seen someone go from sleep to awake so fast! In about 1/4 of a second!
We played in the pool despite the cold wind, although the girls were turning blue again. At about 4pm the sun came out for about 20 minutes, the temperature changed instantly! We acutally see stars tonight, so hopefully we’ll see sun tomorrow.
Supper was at the Mexican restaurant, it was nice, but we had to wait a long time for our meal, and it wasn’t in the least bit spiced. It was quite bland even by my whimpy taste buds’ standards. Gallery is here.
