08.02.2008 - Enjoying a quiet day
Today we decided to stay away from large crowds and even longer waiting lines (the Shuttle launch was just too much). So after we got up in the morning we went for long swim and some time in the Jacuzzi and then had an excellent brunch.
The boys played air hockey, Lego, more air hockey, did some homework while we finally sat down and finished the blog entries of the last days.
In the afternoon we decided to go hunting for dinner. Felix and Max wanted potato skins and - who can guess - I wanted sushi. Thomas had not decided yet - he said he would decide once we were at the store.
At home we could not find sandals for the boys - so we thought Super Walmart (which is not too far away from Calabay Parc) is a good target. I like shopping at Walmart - there is so much stuff to discover and they do have great bargins. For example I found two sweatshirts for Felix and Max, for $ 1 each, a Scrabble (we only have a German game at home and this does not work well for English words), some Early Learner books for the boys, and, and, and,… We got everything except sandals (they only had girls shoes or baby shoes nothing for really cool young men.
We discovered this Walmart now also has a good Sushi selection and decided to buy everything for our dinner here instead of stopping again at Publix.
At home we immediately prepared our dinner. Then I puzzled a bit with the guys while Thomas was playing with his new toy (… he should really write about this…).
At the vacation villa is also a nice collection of movies and we decided to watch Antz together. I have to say that at 9:30 pm when the boys went to bed I wanted to also go to sleep. I survived another hour but after 11pm I could not keep my eyes open any longer.
This was a nice, very relaxing day which we enjoyed very much.
