Vacation Day #12: Thursday
I'm sure you noticed the theme here -- Mark worked.
The others? They were able to get down to Tarague beach one more time and play in the waves. Thursday night was a going away party of sorts -- burger burn! We fired up the the grill and made hamburgers and hot dogs. Many friends came by and brought other goodies. Gerri and Courtney got a lesson in how to make lumpia by Maria Cruz.
Unfortunately, the plane departed at 4:30 a.m. on Friday, which means arriving at the airport at 2:30. The great debate was whether to sleep a bit before leaving. We did, and Courtney drove her parents to the airport early, early, early for their 28 hour ride back.
The 28 hours did include a 12 hour layover in Japan though, and they bravely went into Tokyo to see the sights before hopping back on the plane. They safely arrived back in Springfield at 9:00 p.m on Friday (you lose a day flying back).
And that concludes the Vacation. Now, as soon as the pics start rolling in, we'll start posting them.
