      Venice with Madi

      February 20, 2022 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 66 °F

      I'm at Nora's house in Orlando today. Friday, Madi, Jared, and I went to TreeUmph. It is a roped course in the trees, very similar to the one I did with Andy in Cancun. It wasn't as high off the ground, but it was much more challenging on the #4 course! It took us a solid 4 hours to get through that much, and there was still a more challenging #5! We really had a blast swinging like monkeys and encouraging each other. Jared's son, Elian, was dropped off there by his mother, Mel, right as we were finishing up. He is a super sweet 9-year-old with lots of strange thoughts, and I really enjoy him. I was whooped after the rope course, so we all went out for some authentic Mexican food, and I went home to the leftover Airbnb rental my mom had booked and left early from. I think I fell asleep around 8 pm and slept like a baby.

      When I woke up on Saturday, I went over to Aunt Tamis to eat my Thai food leftovers and bid them farewell. Then, I headed north towards Hunsader Farms, where I was meeting Madi, Jared, and Elian for strawberry picking and a petting zoo. I picked up a phone case for my FREE PHONE that Amazon kindly just refunded me for, more on that soon, and returned some things to TJ Maxx on the way.

      The strawberries were pretty picked over, and we had to really hunt to gather a couple of handfuls. It was still great fun to search out the good ones together. When we headed over to the petting zoo, it was suddenly exciting. All the cute animals were so sweet, and we really enjoyed feeding them. It was a magical time for sure, and I think we spent like 4 hours there altogether. We said our "See you laters" and parted ways as I headed for Nora's in Orlando.

      Orlando

      February 21, 2022 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F

      I arrived at Nora's about 7:30, and we squealed and giggled while our tired selves caught up. We were going to go out for Thai food but were so sleepy, and Tobi offered to cook dinner so he went to Publix and got some ingredients while we chilled on the couch and watched the new Sex and the City spin off called And Just Like That. We ate a delicious dinner of chicken Alfredo with bow tie pasta and veggies. Tobi is really talented in the kitchen! Well, in lots of areas. I passed out on the couch and moved up to the guest room in the middle of the night.

      In the morning, I woke up early and booked flights back to Mexico. My friend Michael bought a ton of beautiful friendship bracelets down in Cancun to sell on tour and I decided I needed to find them as well, just so I could have something for sale in my booth for under $5.00 for the little kiddos to be able to buy who only have a few dollars. I also love Mexico! So, my plan is to go home around March first and make tie dye until my hands fall off, or April 1st, whichever comes first. Then, on April 4th, I fly to Mexico for 2 more weeks out of St Louis.

      When Nora and Tobi got up, they came into my room, and we had a kitty cuddle puddle for a while. Then it was time to make breakfast, so Tobi made us some lovely sausage croissants with cheese and egg. We watched a terrible fantasy show with him until Nora and I both fell asleep, actually immediately. When it was time for Tobi to go to work, we switched back to And Just Like That and enjoyed ourselves just relaxing and laughing.
