Rest day

We all slept in and spent the morning loafing around the pool watching the planes from the nearby Marine Corps Air Services base flying over. They are very noisy - so noisy it seems like the sky will split, but when you look up to try and find them they are so high that they look like tiny greyish moths. Every now and then one of those double rotored helicopters will chug over as well.

In the afternoon we discovered the Target store down the road. We got a few snacks including Cheetos (ooh, I love these - they're a bit like Twisties but denser and more crunchy) and Twinkies. Janet Evanovich's heroine Stephanie Plum is always eating Twinkies and other snack cakes in the same family so I just had to try them. And they were ... well, they were kind of tiny sponge rolls with artificial cream inside. Quite pleasant, I guess. Our favourite snack (and breakfast) is Reese's Puffs - a breakfast cereal that tastes just like Reese's peanut butter cups (chocolate and peanut butter flavour). If we were going straight back home I would definitely bring back a couple of packs! Junk food at its finest!
