I definitely have favorite teachers from my school days that helped shape who I am today. How wonderful to know that's YOU for many kids!
The Sex Museum? WTF?

I was 30 minutes to a beach when I lived in Port Charlotte but anywhere I could afford in Fort Myers when I was looking was just as long timewise (even if a shorter distance). We would go to the beach in Englewood or just north of there or to Boca Grande. Of course those areas are just opening up again after the hurricanes last fall. I think there are a lot of varied property options in Englewood too. We have friends there and their son just bought place near them recently.

Yes, Wisconsin weather is playing a role in our decision but the housing prices have come down considerably too and there is much more inventory to choose from. We just need to be careful to choose something not in a flood zone and maybe a little more out from the coast.

If you keep eating and walking like that you won't be gaining any weight! Sounds like a great start to your trip. I hope the ship is nice! What line are you on?
No snorkeling yesterday as it was a bit rainy in the afternoon. We went to dinner on the pier with our friends and their grandson while the parents of the child had a date night (and the grandson had a sleepover with his grandparents). What a lovely, sweet boy! And so well behaved at dinner. Just colors and plays with his cars while waiting for his food.
Today is more of the same, perhaps with the snorkeling today. Not sure as the rain showers may or may affect the day again. As mentioned yesterday this is actually pretty unusual for Aruba. Tonight is dinner at an older restaurant which used to be a favorite. We don't like it as much partially because it is probably the most expensive restaurant we go to and the food quality hasn't been consistent the last few years. But our friends asked us to go and we wanted to spend the evening with all of them.
Have a well-deserved Wednesday!

So this is the reason for the change in feelings about Florida. Feeling a *****illy, LOL!

Generally it doesn't rain too long - a couple of minutes up to maybe 15 at most.

What a tribute to affect the lives of so many others in a positive way. Leaving an insurance company didn't really feel that way LOL. Though I did mentor some people who continued on to have great careers.
I just looked at the weather in Massachusetts for next week when we are home. Still rainy half the time. Yuck!

Good Morning, from Amsterdam!
Weight? Who knows? I ate well yesterday: 3 squares. Protein, protein for breakfast - eggs and cured meats (love European breakfast!), Pea soup for lunch, and then dinner was in some swanky Portuguese restaurant. I had a small plate of beef filet in a delicious sweet and sour sauce with vegetables. We shared two desserts among the three of us.
Walked 7 miles over the course of the day.
Anne Frank House was deeply moving. At the end of the tour was a film about the father's trek back to Amsterdam. Lots of footage of refugees fleeing Germany. Reminded me very much of the stories my mother told me about her trek to escape the Russians.
Today we board the ship and start our journey to Budapest. Will post more pics on TT when I have a chance.
