Are we going in May... or not? Day 6, May 21st, 2 becomes 3!
Up at 6.15 today, excited because Jane is arriving this afternoon. She left her house in France this morning at 3.15!
After cornflakes we are off to Lowes...again! We need more outlet covers for the Master suite, we’ve decided the brushed silver looks nicer than the white ones. Followed by a side trip to Starbucks which is almost next door! Back to the villa via Publix, we need to stock up on chicken and Michelob in preparation for Janes arrival. We have rolls and salad sitting on the pool deck for lunch. After lunch we carry the pool roller round to the garage, we won’t need it again this year. We then scrub the deck where the roller was and rescue a lizard from the pool and return him to the wild. We manage a couple of hours by the pool, it’s very hot! We are tracking Janes flight. She messages us after she lands at Atlanta. We get showered and changed and head out towards the airport, we’re going to call at the Loop on the way to return something from the other day. It’s 106 degrees! We nip into Kirkland’s and return the lighted twigs, they are battery operated which is no good to us! I also pop inot Payless shows to try and exchange some shoes my friend bought couple of weeks ago. They are both left feet and she’s didnt realise till she got home! They won’t exchange them, really rude woman would barely speak to me apart from to tell me I have to take them back to the store they were bought from. Off to the airport and we park up in the Cell phone lot which is free to park. There’s a lovely breeze so we sit with the windows open till a swarm of love bugs appears from nowhere! We’ve been lucky and seen hardly any since we’ve been here - until now! Janes flight lands half an hour early and she’s out fairly quickly with no immigration to deal with. We get the text to say she’s through and waiting by sign number 31. So we pull round, she jumps in and we’re off! We have a cooler with cold drinks in it in the truck, it’s so hot we are carrying cold drinks all the time, Jane is very glad of a drink. It’s so lovely to see her, last time I saw her was last November and that was literally for a couple of hours. Crazy traffic on the I4 as there’s been an accident so we jump off at I Drive and drive down to the 192. Chicken for tea with Brie and crusty bread and mozzarella sticks, a lovely relaxing tea watching Midsomer Murders on the new Netflix we have installed. Early night for Jane and we weren’t far behind her! Not many photos today guys, sorry will do better tomorrow. TTFN xx Edited at 11:09 PM. |

Selina. Glad Jane arrived ok, what a long trip she had! Hope she likes the truck you have on this trip
I did chuckle about the 2 left feet shoes. How bizarre. I'm surprised you haven't had too many love bugs. Where we were staying they were the worst I have ever seen in 25 years. Not that they bother me but I know some people freak out with them.

How rude at the shoe shop?! Thought the US was the customer service mecca.
Glad Jane arrived safe and sound.
