...Tuesday we had big plans for Mud Island. It's fun, it's free and the kids have never been there, that they remember.
Well... they still haven't.
Of course, the day we plan to do something outside is the only day this week it rains. We have plans to do something outside tomorrow. We'll see if that works out.Nani, the kids, and I packed the car with a picnic lunch and headed all the way downtown and wouldn't ya know, it started raining half way there.
We made the best of it and enjoyed a car picnic at Riverside Park. We admired the houses on the Bluff, talked about the mighty Mississippi with it's barges and tow boats, and we dodged homeless people in the parking lot.
I think all in all, the trip was an unexpected success.
Actually, the best part was the long, long naps we all got when we went home. THAT's how to spend a rainy day out of school.
