Florida Vacation

Hooray! It's summer! And that means vacation time for our clan. This year it's off to sunny, muggy Florida. Why? Two reasons: Grandparents and Disney World. Sweetieclan (that's relatives on her side of the family) decided they wanted a large family vacation to Disney World, and my parents now reside in FL, not too far from House of Mouse.

Today we started on our Florida Adventure. It was a series of comings and goings. As I mentioned in an earlier post, Hobbes was at camp for the last two weeks. We decided this year to let him take the boat to San Pedro with the other campers instead of picking him up there since we all needed to go to the mainland anyway. So Sweetie and Calvin took the morning ferry over to SP to collect him. Where was I? Well, we decided to take advantage of being off the island to get our truck worked on, so I drove over to Avalon, and dropped the truck off at the shop. Then I caught a ferry. Sweetie and the boys picked me up. We drove up to the apartment to do some laundry for Hobbes. Sweetie dropped off the clothes she would need for the cruise at the TA's house. In a plan that would do the Nelson clan proud, the other instructor will be driving to SF from SD and pick up Sweetie's stuff on the way north. I had to go out and get a new cell phone because my old one was no longer holding a charge. We also staged Calvin's stuff for camp at the apartment for when we return. Then it was off to dinner and the hotel. We decided to stay at a hotel this evening because we have an early flight, and didn't really want to have that hour drive to get to the airport. (The 5 minute shuttle ride is much better.) So now, to bed. Tomorrow: Grammy and Grandpa's new house!
