Home!

Our last day was the most fun!! We found the PERFECT beach - not crowded, with crystal clear water (and not freezing cold!) We floated around in an tube, kayaked along the beach, and Steve fresh water snorkeled with his goggles. It was a blast!!

Then we went out for a really good dinner with Grandma and Grandpa - and had some super delish ice cream after. Wm loved the Kayak and Surf Shop's mascot. Check out his doggie eyebrows!

That was his mood the entire time - chill.

We did have some bumps along with road during the trip home! First, just as we were getting ready to hit the road, Wm got a really bad nose bleed. He kept getting these big, nasty clots globbing out. So he wouldn't freak out, I just told him they were "bloody boogers" - which he thought was funny. It took us over 30 minutes to get it stopped. And the cleaning crew at the rental house will think someone was murdered - there was blood everywhere! When we finally got on the road, about an hour into the drive, the "Check Engine" light came on. Then the cruise control stopped working. Luckily, the car seemed to drive fine as long as you didn't try to use cruise. When we stopped for gas, we discovered why...

Steve had filled up the tank and seriously just walked away. Did not put the gas cap back on. Did not close the gas door. So air got into the gas tank and freaked the car out. And my gas cap was gone by that point. So we had to stop at Autozone and get a new one. But the cruise still won't work until we get the computer reset. So Steve's punishment for his weird gas-and-dash was that he had to drive for over 5 hours without cruise! 

And Wm woke up today and goes, "my throat feels weird. [COUGH] [SNEEZE]" So I think he got run down on vacation and now has a cold. It would also explain the nasty nose bleed. His sinuses are in open rebellion. At least we got home safe and sound!! And I'm 3/4 of the way done with laundry!
