So, the husband turns to the wife and says:
I know we've barely unpacked and gotten settled from our camping trip two weeks ago... and the kids have had their fill of fun this week at Disney on Ice two nights ago... but what do you say we drop everything and visit the Edventure Children's Museum in Columbia and Georgia Aquarium... both in the next 24 hours? Does that sound reasonable? We can pack after the birthday party we're going to today, leave first thing in the morning, and be back at least two days before we have to pack again and head to Clemson for that diversity panel you're scheduled to be on.
... see, now that's supposed to be the point at which the delirious wife says to the insane husband, "are you nuts?!"... but instead she said, "Can we add the Zoo? Let's go!"... And just like that, the wheels on the bus were back in motion. To Atlanta and back at the speed of light. And it was worth every millisecond (well... maybe all except those few milliseconds when 3 cranky children simultaneously melted down at Papaduex Seafood Restaurant, shattering dishware on the floor and proclaiming their inability to sit still and be patient for the love of worn out parents across the world). I'll post some photos in the next few entries. Enjoy.
