Andy just showed me his post.....and the whole "are you gonna watch my kid" thing reminded me.... I never said this before the trip in the Pre TR b/c I thought it was a one off thing.....but....
About a week before we left on the trip Kevin calls up and asks me if we wouldn't mind watching Audrey one night so he and Lori could do something. I figured he meant something like keeping her for the evening so they could have an evening to themselves. I said I didn't see that being too much of a problem but I wasn't really sure b/c we already had ADRs made and they'd have to change that......
So I hung up with him and talked to Andy about it and Andy goes "You do know that he probably didn't mean just for the evening" that with Kevin he bet he meant the whole night. I completely didn't believe that our friend would assume that we would take his child for a whole night on our vacation.....so when Kevin called back I made Andy talk to him. And sure enough...that's what he meant. He wanted he and Lori to have some "alone time" GIVE ME A BREAK! I just couldn't believe he would have the gumption to ask that of his friends. Andy flat out told him that we loved Audrey to death but neither one of us felt comfortable keeping her overnight. I mean c'mon, she's in a foreign place and they think that she'll be okay overnight with other people? I just couldn't believe it. Little did I know that was foreshadowing of the trip. I think Kevin was a bit peeved when Andy said no to that ridiculous request.....but by the time the trip rolled around I figured he had gotten over it.... who knows.....
Now I'm off to do the next update. We'll try to keep the whining about Kevin and Lori to a minimum now
