Wandering Tribulations

I know I usually post astronomy links today, but it has been such a long one that I think it is better that I don't even try.

We started by getting up before 6:30 a.m., waiting for Bombshell to show up with the kids, because she is working a triple today and really needed to get to work before 7. Not a normal thing at all but this year the restaurant she manages was having a "Kringle Mingle" breakfast. And since she didn't bother to really explain it until it was almost time, the only opening they still had was at 8 a.m.

Things got better though. As I was trying to get shoes and different shirts on the kids and motivate Pan, Bombshell calls and wants me to stop by her house because she left her work keys behind.

Surprisingly enough we still managed to get there just a little after 8 and they reserved the Princess' favorite booth for us. And being a sports bar restaurant the booths all had televisions and there were large screen tvs situated throughout the restaurant, all of which were playing Rudolph. Each child was presented with a foam memory book to put together and a choice of french toast or pancakes with eggs and either bacon or sausage. Adults pretty much the same thing only no french toast. And being so early I really scarved up the coffee, LOL. Santa made his appearance and went by each and every table talking to all the children, then made his way to his special chair where they could get their pictures taken with him. Upon leaving the kids were presented with a bag of small toys, candy and bubbles.

Then it started all over again at 9:30 for the poor waiters and waitresses. They really did a good job putting it all together. Will try to get some layouts posted next week (or the first week of December) of our time there along with a photo of the near life-size elephant topiary all decked out for the holidays.
