As the immortal Yogi said, Lee: It ain't over til it's over. We can't see the game here in Florida but when I just checked on my laptop, Buffalo was ahead 20-14, but unless the 12 1/2 point spread is part of our bet, I feel relatively safe in predicting that our contest will be a wash.
We have met the folks we are renting from and they are now headed for their home in Michigan while we are settling in.
Lisa and her family arrived home by late afternoon yesterday. Kevin and Jamie and their kids drove to West Palm Beach and visited Jamie's dad and caught a later flight that got them back to Boston a little after midnight.t
Rita and had a minor problem disembarking. Since we were in the first group to disembark after those passengers who were taking their luggage off by themselves, the personnel at the terminal must have thought we were part of that group so they sort of herded us past the area were the baggage was being held and through passpgort control and out of the building. We couldn't go back in to get our luggage and had to wait until the entire ship was cleared and any unclaimed luggage was brought outside. We still were on our scooters and the woman who was there to collect them took good care of us and when the luggage finally came out, she helped us to collect our bags and take them to the location where we could get transportation to the hotel where Rita's car was parked. Taylor had ordered an Uber for us before they left the pier and it arrived quickly and we were in the car and back on the road in a very short period heading for Vero Beach. We made a stop for food in Melbourne and finally arrived at the Fairfield Inn in VB where we stayed for the evening. The young woman who checked us in went out to the car and helped Rita get into the hotel where another hotel employee helped us get our luggage to our room. After resting for awhile we headed out to get a bite to eat at Rita's favorite pizza restaurant in Vero - Big Apple Pizza.
The hotel where we stayed is less than a mile from where we are renting so the trip to our new digs was brief.
When we stayed here last year we made friends with the next door neighbor who is also a native of Massachusetts so we were very happy when she came over to welcome us back.
The TV in the living room is enormous and looks to have a thousand channels so it may take a while to master the remote and get to the channels .
Will come back later to describe our cruise but overall it was a great experience made even better by having all of our family with us.
