My Ebenezer

So we decided to bring the laptop afterall, with strict rules about not checking emails. It’s come in handy already to look up places to eat, etc…

The trip over went very smoothly – we had a nice visit with family in Louisiana and we spent the night in Slidell, La. All four of us in one room and it worked out okay. We thought the kids would crash in the car when we left our relatives’ house, but they BOTH stayed awake until 9pm! Woke up when we got to the hotel but went right back to sleep, for the most part.

The funniest thing so far is Speedy’s enthusiasm. I think he likes being on vacation. When we crossed the state line into Florida, Daddyo said, “woooppeeee! We’re in Florida now” and Speedy went nuts in the back seat. “It’s so fun! It’s so fun! It’s so fun! It’s so fun!” I caught part of it on video with my cell phone, I’ll have to post it later.

This morning, we woke up at 6:30am and headed out on the balcony for breakfast. We got to watch dolphins frolicking in the water while we had breakfast.

We’re off to a great start.
