We had a full day of adventures with two grandparents who drove down from Michigan to spend time with us.
Grandpa Mike and Busha came bearing presents for all of the Adventurers (even those that did not recently have birthdays).

Suaram was particularly pleased with the sketch pads, pencils and guide books that she has immediately put to good use for her graphic novels.


The hotel has some facilities that the kids spent time at today. In the morning, the kids got to show off their knowledge of chess moves and strategies. CreeperKitty is convinced that he is on his way to becoming the first Grandmaster in the family.

All three kids went swimming in the hotel pool and impressed Busha (Brian’s Mom) with their underwater skills. Afterwards, they visited the exercise room and had some treadmill time too.

Despite their efforts, these kids seem indefatigable today and are slow in getting ready for bed and sleep. Some things never change!
