Re: TRIP REPORT!! 10 Days and a sore bum!
After a long day with Grandma the sun is beginning to set in St. Bess. Nicole goes into the house to get hats for the twins to protect them from the evening air. No sooner does she have the hats on their heads before Grandma is saying "Dew staw fall, betta tek di babies inside." "Yeah, that is why I put the hats on them", Nicole said.

Red and I look at one another and he knows it is time to leave. The sun is quickly disappearing and we still have to drive to Mandeville. We say our goodbyes and pile back into the car.
We arrive in Mandeville to a full house. Mr. Red is there with his wife and step daughter. Mr. Red's best friend is there with his wife ans 2 kids. There are 7 people staying in the house not including Red and I. All I care about is where I am to put my things. I just want to get a little settled. We have been driving so much and sleeping in a different bed just about every night. I am exhausted.
Mr. Red tells us to take his room, he and his wife will take the helpers quarters. He must be joking! The helpers quarters has a bed barely big enough for 1 person. There are 4 bedrooms in the house, all being used, there really isn't room for Red and I. I insist on taking the helpers quarters, I can't see Red's father and step-mother cramped up in that small room. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70388-shameonyou.gif[/img] They are busy entertaining a house full of people and preparing for the party on Tuesday. If anyone needs their own space it is the 2 of them.
We head into the room and put our luggage down. Once the suitcases are in the room, there isn't a place to even stand so we quickly leave. We sit on the couch and just sort of veg out. We are both exhausted, we have been moving non-stop since we first got to JA and are brains were fried. Mr. Red and his best friend are busy trying to get an old crusty record player set up. They have been out walking all day and want to listen to some oldies music. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70371-jump.gif[/img] Watching 2 grown men, who had been out Christmas walking all day, try to set up this record player they found in the garage, was one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time.

We climb into the tiny single bed and drop dead.
