Thursday night, Elaine, Christine and I elected to stay home and relax. We got our clothes packed, cleaned up and went to eat. It was nice just to sit and visit. I finally had my first drink during the entire trip.
The ladies that went out had decided to go back to the French Market and River Walk, because they had not bought enough. Go figure. We begin to worry about them later, because the weather began to turn bad outside. Christine called Sandy to see if they were okay, and they said they were still waiting for the shuttle. About 9:00 they came in just before the rain hit. When we talked to them, they said they had to catch a ride with the Holiday Inn bus, because the shuttle was still not there. We began loading the vehicles up so that we would not have to do it the next day.
Our last day was the best! Short and sweet. Our presenter had to leave for the plane at 3:15pm, so she relaxed and showed films after lunch that we had not viewed before. We presented her with a special gift before lunch, so she could enjoy it. We had some headaches again about checking out. Once again there was miscommunication between our title one treasurer and the hotel. We were afraid that we were going to have to pay the tax for the bill if we did not check out again. Thank heavens, they were able to correct it. We were able to leave on time and headed toward interstate 10 and 310. Now I understand why Sandy wanted to go the West Bank way. Bumper to Bumper traffic headed our way. We did make it out with out any problems and home by 8:00pm. It was great to be back, but we did have a good time. One teacher said–Hey we should do this again next year. I told them I was game, if they gave me time to save money. 😀
