Day 35 Westport New York

Matt had his first day off on Saturday, and we had a great day. I picked him up at Meadowmount in the morning (he had from 7 am on Saturday to 7 am Sunday off) and we drove to Lake Placid for the day. I hadn’t really done much research as to what to do in Lake Placid, so we just walked through the main part of town and then went to McDonald’s for lunch (thanks Mom!). We did stop by the Olympic Ice Arena, and we saw the ski jumps, but I’m hoping we can go back again to take a gondola ride, or see a show at the Ice Arena. After we got back to Westport, we went swimming, had dinner, put Sebastian to bed, and then Dora got to stay up late to see the fireflies and the fireworks over the Westport Marina. She also got to see some bats too; I think she had a pretty good time. And it was nice to have a full day with Matt. Very, very nice.

Today we walked to the park, and played with our hosts’ grandson Jack. Sebastian is sleeping now, and Dora is watching Blues Clues. Matt has a little bit of time this afternoon, so we will hopefully see him for a bit, and probably go swimming too. Ahh, this 7 week vacation thing isn’t too bad! I’m going to try to get to some emails now. More later…
