Fun in the Sun

This morning was hectic, but Cam and I still managed to get out the door at 9 a.m. as planned.  Thankfully, I had 90% of what we needed packed yesterday and only had a few items to add this morning.   Meg had an appointment to get her bottom braces today and I had to drop off a package to the post office before we left as we sold another Sports Illustrated Michael Jordan magazine.  Fortunately, all went as planned and we were able to pick up my parents without any issues.  

The trip to Indianapolis was an easy one and we were on 67 by noon.  Grandpa and Cam decided that they wanted to eat lunch at Wendy's.  Our meal ended with a comedy of errors as Grandma disregarded the men's sign on the bathroom and was walking out as Cameron opened the door to enter.  Cal's presentation went well and his class ended early.  Thus, he and Brett met us about 20 minutes before I thought they would.  My parents drove the Civic back to Syracuse which I really appreciated.  The boys and I made it to the airport and into economy parking without any problems and were able to check into our flight almost two hours early.  Brett and Cal even had time to eat lunch before passing through security.   

Our flight was delayed a few minutes, but overall it went very well.  I had downloaded several episodes of The Sopranos to watch while Cam played games on the iPad as Brett and Cal read.  This was one of the smoothest flights I had been on in awhile and it landed early yet to boot.  The only small  glitch in our trip was the delay in the luggage return which almost made us miss our LYFT ride, but it all worked out in the end and we were at the hotel well before 7 p.m.

Tonight we walked to Universal's City Walk to eat dinner.  It wasn't too crowded but there were several private events going on which closed quite a few restaurants.  We put our name in at Margaritaville and then walked around to do some window shopping.  The food was great and we were glad to have waited.  We made it back to the Loews Royal Pacific in time to watch the second half of the IU game.  Everyone was excited to watch a Hoosier victory.  Before we went to bed I heard from both Doug and Meg.  He spent his evening painting the ceiling in the living room.  Meg had tennis and then had quite a bit of homework to finish as the last day of the quarter is tomorrow.  She was annoyed with a couple of her grades, but planned to meet with those teachers in the morning.    Her mouth was sore and she had a difficult time talking with her bite plate.  I felt bad, but realized that it was part of the process.  We ended the evening here watching Impractical Jokers excited about our day tomorrow.
