Grump woke up grumpy, (imagine that!). He had difficulty falling asleep the night before, and had wanted to sleep in a bit, but Kuya, (whom he shared a bed with), was up and KICKING before 6:00 am! Grrr ......
Since we were all awake anyway, thanks to Kuya's noise and bouncing, we just went on downstairs and had breakfast at the hotel breakfast buffet. After breakfast was over we had to decide what to do, because we weren't supposed to meet up with Grandpa and Grandma until 11:00 am. We decided to go swimming!
The hotel pool was outdoors, and was as warm as bathwater. All four of us, Grump, Sweetie, Kuya, and Dodong, went swimming. Kuya and Dodong had a great time splashing around!
Lunch was back at the Fleet Landing dining hall, where we all ate too much. (What can you do? The food is so good!) After lunch Kuya stayed with Grandpa to go swimming in the big indoor Fleet Landing pool, while Gramdma, Grump, Sweetie, and Dodong, went to The Avenues, a nice mall on Southside Blvd., to do some shopping. Dodong and Grump walked around a bit, trying out free samples here and there, (Grump even managed to spill some iced tea down Dodong's back!), while for the entire two hours we were there, Sweetie and Grandma never even left Belk! While there, Grandma bought Sweetie some very, very nice clothes, including a Ralph Lauren dress.
After all that swimming and shopping we got a light dinner at Panera Bread. "Highlights" of this meal included Grandpa completely knocking over a glass of water, twice, and Dodong deciding he likes to eat sliced apple.

After dinner the four travelers, (Dodong, Kuya, Sweetie, and Grump), were all tired, so we went back to the hotel room to go to bed early. By 8:30 pm all four of us were in bed, and snoring happily!
