Aquarium Day

On Saturday morning in Charleston Jeremy was working so I got together with three other moms and their kids. We spent the morning at the hotel pool which was beautiful. We decided to grab lunch out and then go to the S.C. Aquarium before meeting the rest of the group in the afternoon. I am always amazed at how quickly kids get comfortable with each other. In our group of eight kids we had three eight year old girls. I will let you think about that one for a minute and just imagine how much energy was in that little group of girls. The whole group got along great and that made for relaxing day for all of us.

While we were finishing up at the aquarium we noticed it was 3:00 and we needed to be back at the hotel before 3:30 to meet the rest of our group to go bowling. From the aquarium to the hotel was one mile which should be easy but we had eight tired kids with us. We started walking back to the hotel as quick as we could but realized before we were half way there that this was not going to work. We spotted a cab that agreed to take ALL of us back to the hotel. Four moms, eight kids, and the cab driver all crammed into a minivan cab....clown car is what I am sure we looked like when we unloaded at the hotel.
