Today was not the most exciting vacation day, but we definitely needed a rest day, especially Sweetie. Not because she was so tired yesterday, but because of what is in store for her. More on that in a moment.
We stayed in and did laundry and packed while the kids - wait for it - swam in the pool. Sweetie finally had a chance to talk to her mom and siblings and nieces and nephews. The kids watched some Mickey Mouse cartoons.
In the evening, I dropped Sweetie off at the airport. She is flying to SF and will be teaching 20 day class, of which the first 10 days are on a tall ship sailing from SF down through the Channel Islands to Catalina. Then the next 10 days are on Catalina, so she'll be home, but not home. This will be very exhausting, particularly because she will be a deck hand while on the boat. That means she'll have to stand watch, help with sails, and do all those tall ship things you read about in the Master & Commander novels. Very exciting, no?
Some of the other family left today, too. So it's really feeling like vacation is over. Tomorrow - we leave.
