One Day Vacation

DD4 and I took a "vacation day" on Friday and ran away for an adventure. Our plan was to go to Rainbow Springs, float around on the water, relax the afternoon away, possibly with a book (if we stopped talking long enough) and have a picnic lunch. It was a great plan.

You do know what happens to great plans, right?

The floats weren't allowed. The water was too cold to get more than our feet wet. The only shady spot we could find for our chairs was on an incline that was steeper than it looked so the chairs kept tipping, slipping, sliding and finally collapsing. DD4's sinuses decided not to cooperate with her so her energy was taken up with breathing and trying to clear her head. We forgot to bring the books.

So, when we hit somewhere around Plan Q we changed out of our swimsuits into comfy clothes and walking shoes. She took an antihistimine and we found a beautiful spot on a park bench and ate our lunch. Then we took the camera and hit the walking trails. Only to discover that I had removed the card that stores the pictures and we only had enough memory for about 6 shots. It was just enough to get this one, though.

Pretty much a perfect day.
