Goodbyes and Good Road

As promised, a more detailed update on Sunday. And, today, Monday. 

Sunday we relaxed around the hotel. Jess got annoyed with Geoff and got in the car and drove around. Found a bagel store and got to hang out alone. I waited for Doug to get up so we could make our plan for going and seeing the dogs (and Ronnie). He slept super late - he had been waking up between 5 and 6 and being up for a while... then going back to sleep, and sleeping and sleeping. So I let him have what he obviously needed. 

We got our plan figured out and went over at about 1. The goal was to eat as much of the left over food as we could, and also pet dogs. Both tasks were accomplished. 





After that was accomplished, we drove back to the hotel. Doug and Geoff were in the mini and I drove Shirl and the Girls. Back at the hotel, we popped Shirley into the room, she was pooped and cranky. Jess, Linda and I sat at the bar. Linda's reservation came with two drink tokens so we had 8 tokens to use. Okay twist my arm. We got the Rangers game on the big screens in the bar and the boys were upstairs doing the same. I ordered Pizza for them, and everyone was in a happy place. 

I wasn't hungry, and was worried about eating pizza at 10pm so I skipped eating. Went to bed at 12:30 after watching the first period of the Oilers/LA game. 

This morning I was up at 8. Jess had already packed their things. My mom got up at 4:30 and made enough noise to ruffle Linda's feathers. So they were packed and organized early. And Linda was exhausted from sharing the room with mom. Can't say as I blame her. I'm so thankful she did. 

Jess wanted to be on the road to the ferry by 9:30 and they indeed pulled out of the parking lot at that time, and Linda was right behind them. 

Geoff went back to his room, I hung out with Doug who was goofing off on his phone and drinking the first coffees of the day. 

We were given late checkout at 2pm because of my Marriott super high tech jetfighter status, without even asking. Ha. noice. But I knew we wouldn't need it. We left at 11:45, and the GPS sent us down through Brooklyn, across the Verrazzano Narrows, to Staten Island, breezing straight across, the Goethals Bridge and into Elizabeth. 

In one hour. Unheard of. 

We stopped in Maryland at a rest area to get a stretch and snack, and we were home at 4:45. We didn't run into traffic until Baltimore! So happy to be home. So happy to be with Toffee. We ate more chicken and pasta left overs. We're going to bed. Digits below.
