Doug picked up the groceries in the morning. It filled up their car! They also put about two items per bag, so we had plenty of plastic bags. (Shown here is only the non-cold stuff. The cold stuff was whisked away.)
The ladies went out by ourselves in the morning to an escape room. It was the first one that Heather and I had done. I loved it. We all contributed and we got a little stuck a few times but didn't call for help.
Since we escaped so early, we walked around downtown for a bit before lunch. We went into a five and dime and laughed about a bunch of things there. We walked down to the...river? lake? and then went out to lunch. We also got some fudge, which everyone kept saying was a tradition. I finally admitted that I only remembered getting fudge in 2017...and it turns out that getting fudge is a new tradition. One that I was totally on board with.
While we were gone, the rest of the people just kind of hung out. The kids found some wiki stix and played with them a ton! (They also ended up on the bottom of the table.)
They also played some arcade games. We were all really hoping that the games were part of the rental cost, but alas, they needed quarters. Not a huge deal though as we had plenty of other things to do...
...like the Switch.
In the afternoon we went to see the "Acrobats from Shanghai." According to the announcer, China is millions and millions miles away from here.
My favorite acts included a hat toss,
some yo-yo type things that I can't remember the name of,
and hoop jumping.
In the evening Laura was going on a walk with her kids, and I thought sounded like a good idea for my kids too. There were a bunch of rocks around, and they made better toys than the little playground. We met up with the others about half way through our walk.
Finally! The kids were down! Some of the adults played a game of Diamonds.
