Day 5, 6, and 7

I'm going to combine the rest of the days into one post since there aren't many pictures and not too much happened (except Monday, but we'll get to that:)

Sunday, we went to Sarasota church. Just a pic of us girls before church.
It may be a little blurry since I cropped it quite a bit.

Sunday for supper we went out to eat and then back to church for a singing.

Now, onto Monday.
It started off okay...but didn't end the greatest :)
I don't even remember what we did Monday morning, but sometime mid-morning, Lanae was taking a shower. All of a sudden she comes running out and says that there is water coming up through the drain in the shower and flowing out from the toilet. What happened was Grandpa was trying to unplug the toilet in the other bathroom and since something was plugged up in the pipes, "the stuff" didn't have anywhere else to go except up and out! We had had problems with the toilet plugging before. So the water and whatever else was in there kept coming out onto the floor in the bathroom and into the hallway. Completely understandable, Grandma wasn't very happy about it especially since they were only renting. So us girls took off and went to the beach. It was kind of cloudy so we just walked on the beach for a while.

By the time we got back from the beach, around 6:00 pm, the plumber, who was called quite a while before that, had arrived. He went outside and pulled some cover off of something and a lot of bugs (the plumber said they were cousins of cockroaches) started crawling out, and all over the plumber. He had to pick through a hard crusty something (don't want to know what it was!) and then the water started flowing again. If we had known that was the problem, we could have saved G&G some money!


That night we made a game out of word finds. Grandma would tell us the title of the word find and we had to guess which words were part of the word find. Actually pretty fun! We took some videos but I'm not going to post them, they aren't all that exciting to watch :)

Our LAST day has arrived, Tuesday. Sooooooooo sad :( 
Totally not ready for the cold weather of CT.
Oh well, we tried to make the best of the last day. We went to the beach in the morning. At first it was sunny, but then became too cloudy and cold to sit out there. So we went back to the house and rode our bikes for a little while. We rode a lot on our sweet bikes. Windward Isle is a good place for riding bikes :)

Anyhow, back to Tuesday. Soon, the sun came out so we went to the pool and enjoyed our last few hours of sun and warm weather in January. At 4:00 we packed up the car and headed out.

We had so much fun when we were down there. Hopefully we will do it again (if Grandma doesn't mind us coming down. We'll try not to clog the toilet too many times:)

Well, now that my trip to FL is done, hopefully I will find something else to post about. I wouldn't hold your breath though, I would like to see you again :)
