Day 217

It was a pretty rough night lastnight. I woke up what felt like every hour AT LEAST. I'm not sure why. The bed is super comfy. I just couldn't sleep, which is insane because I was exhausted.

When I woke up at 7, I reset my alarm for 7:30. I was ready by 8, and then sat around until about 10, waiting for everyone else to go to breakfast. I watched a couple of episodes of Saved By The Bell, and then some Spongebob. Eventually the knock came. Down we went. The boys ate a ton of toast and cereal. That's "all" they ate because they didn't want to be too full for brunch at 1 :|

Heloise went back up to the rooms to work, and Tim, the boys and I headed out. We went for a walk through downtown, bought a soccer ball, and went up to a really pretty park. While Tim, Josh and Nathaniel played soccer, Zach and I hunted for some sticks to build our pirate ship on an outdoor stage. While we didn't build an ENTIRE ship...we had fun gathering thing. We even had bottle caps for treasure. We made the pirate ship steering wheel - I'm sure there's a proper term for that, but I can't think of it, and I made a fishing rod...cuz I'm just that talented. Then while Zach ran off to go to the washroom, before changing his mind, I wrote Jack out in sticks. We were going to write Captain Jack Sparrow, but then Nathaniel came to help us, we moved the wheel, and by the time we got around to that, it was time to go. We walked back to the hotel, met Heloise for Brunch, and everyone but me ate. I sat, had a cappuccino, and helped Zach colour. When we finished, we all went for another walk.

We went into a museum first, but just to take a quick look at what it would be like for another day. After that, we walked to the mall. We only went to a couple of "essential stores", as there was no pleasing the boys when it came to shopping. I told them I'd meet up with them, and went to Starbucks. I found out they have a new way of making their frappuccinos, and that means they can now make soy ones! YAY! I had already ordered my hot drink though, so I'll have to try that tomorrow. After getting my drink, I walked towards the Bay. They were supposed to be in there but "afraid I'd get lost" waited for me outside the door. How old am I? Anyway, we then continued into the store and Heloise searched for some pyjamas. When we left there, we came back to the hotel.

I came to my room, and Nathaniel and Zach joined me until they went swimming. We played a game they got from the hotel, and when they left, I turned the hockey game on. They were back by the beginning of the 3rd period. We finished a game, and then started a new one. Josh knocked on the door to say we were going down for dinner.

We went to the lounge downstairs this time, and just when I thought we were done...the boys were still hungry and ordered another plate of wings. We didn't get back upstairs until 8:30, so unfortunately I missed the beginning of the Junos. When I got to my room though, I turned it right on. At the first commercial break I saw, I ran downstairs to make sure my internet was for free for sure. It is. I came back up, watched the rest, then watched Desperate Housewives, caught a bit of the news...got mad at some people who are complaining about air traffic control trying to keep them safe....and now I'm watching America's Funniest Home Videos. It's a lot later than I thought though...and I should probably be trying to go to sleep. So now that I'm all caught up...Good Night xx
