Wednesday: Heading South Again

We set off from Marilee's and headed south to see an old friend. Teri is Canadian and we met her and Roger on the day we picked up our trailer 2 years ago. Though we only met for a few hours we have kept in touch, never really expecting to meet again, but somehow not doubting that we would.
Unexpectedly they had returned to Florida and we were able to drop in and see Teri (Roger was away on business). we had a lovely afternoon catching up on all that has happened over the last 2 years. However eventually we had to move on as we were expected by some friends in Winter Haven. They are a lovely family and although we did nothing special it was a special time as we became immersed in a normal american family (that is not an insult)for an evening. Husband, wife and three kids, all of whom were delightful, interesting and well behaved. We fell about in hysterics when Sarah (the youngest) sat on the floor and let rip with the longest and loudest fart, we all looked on in horror as she laughed and pulled out a tub of Flarp, at which point we all laughed as well. After dinner they treated us to a demonstration of tap dancing. It was a real shame that we had to leave next day.
