Vacation - post 4

 

A special memory from vacation as Kristen surprised me with a dinner on the beach.  We honestly did not end up enjoying the meal, but the location and time together was awesome.  We even got this crazy sky which was worth taking the picture because of how weird the line through the sky was…

Hit the pools, enjoyed the sun, and had a really nice vacation day.  We were determined to make memories…we signed up for a outing for later this week and when we were approached to participate in the evening entertainment, we said yes.  Yep…this is us on stage with other couples to attempt to win the ideal couple:

There was multiple “events” -

1- A “can you identify your significant others leg by feel”? game - Kristen was mortified as she touched all the Men’s legs - for the record - she did NOT guess correctly.

2- A get blindfolded and take instruction challenge with a horn and hoop - I think we did that one reasonably well.

3- A carry a ball with your butt game that was mortifying for both of us that we absolutely failed at

And finally….

This:

Yes…victory was ours.

Vacation post 2

 

Maybe not the post you expect…not the one I would have expected to post…but here we are.

Instead of enjoying the vacation and posting about starting our relaxation activities….we have largely been on the phone with Janelle and the rehab facility because despite the best laid plans…all heck was breaking loose.

Janelle is not being allowed into the facility to be with mom because she is from a “hot spot” Covid location.  Kristen went out of her way to make sure all was ready.  Mom was expecting and needs Janelle to be with her.

Hours of wasted time escalating to management and others to make this happen.

She still won’t have access the same way, but with full precautions gear, it looks like she will be able to get in.

I feel SO badly for Janelle about this whole thing….but certainly not the way we wanted vacation to start either.

It was a long flight/long day to get here.  But, what a gorgeous place and we are so excited to have this vacation.

So grateful to Janelle for coming up to be with mom during this week.  We definitely needed the break - iberostar’s hotel is amazing and the number of pools and places to hang out are crazy.  

More to follow.
