A Girls' Weekend Away

Woohoo ... we're on a Girls' Weekend Away -- well, weekend may not be the best description as we arrived yesterday afternoon and then we are heading home tomorrow. So, a Girls' Few Days of R&R" would be a better description.

We already have had a great time .. we arrived around 2:30 but our condo wasn't ready until around 4. Actually, not even then but we were taking our stuff in as the cleaning staff was cleaning the kitchen. But, we managed to get settled in time to go down to the Lazy River and find a float. We floated okay -- I managed to get a little stuck under water spouts ... fun ... brought lots of laughter -- the whole afternoon and evening had lots of laughter, except ...

Rachel couldn't find her phone (see if her kids read this -- they agree this happens quite often) ... so I offered to call the phone. Couldn't hear it but that would be difficult anyway since it was on 'vibrate'. I tried a total of 6 times and on the next to the last time, I heard "Hello"? We were disconnected so I tried again. This time, "Hello? Is this Linda?" How would some stranger (if it was) know my name? Well, it seems that Rachel forgot her cell phone down by one of the pools and it was found by a family when it repeatedly "rang". I just couldn't believe that it had been almost two hours and no one had taken it but rather had kept it until we called it!! We retrieved it and went on to dinner ... now they are pestering me to get going so I must sign off or be left behind -- and we don't want any 'gal left behind' ....'til later ...
