We woke up and did breakfast for the final time in Fort Myers for this trip. We were on our 8th day but not quite halfway into the trip so we would have a lot of breakfasts in our future. Breakfast was noticibly busier than previous days. It was just two days before Christmas which… Continue reading Florida 2020: Diary – Day 8 →

We awoke to our last full day in Fort Myers. Breakfast went efficiently as always and I got the boys set up on their Zoom calls with no problems. Morning Prep After another morning run, I felt particularly energized. I had run the 5K route at a pace I haven’t reached in several years. It… Continue reading Florida 2020: Diary – Day 7 →

Enjoying my “Day Off” I was taking the day off from… Continue reading Florida 2020: Diary – Day 3 →

The sun was still coming up which made it harder to motivate the boys.… Continue reading Florida 2020: Diary – Day 2 →

Our getaway flight the night before arrived into Fort Lauderdale pretty late and the boys had class to get up for in the morning. Luckily Wednesdays are lighter days for the them, but we still had to get up relatively early. Breakfast and Classes Luckily we were on the same floor where the free breakfast… Continue reading Florida 2020: Diary – Day 1 →

Our first day of the trip was a getaway day. It was the first time we had been on a plane in 9 months and we were a bit nervous about what to expect. Getting a Lyft We considered driving to the airport to minimize our interactions with other people, but the cost of parking… Continue reading Florida 2020: Diary – Day 0 →
