Yes these were few of the main attractions in Lake George we succumbed to. And also there was running around in Lake George beach, taking a boat ride in the lake, playing golf and all the shopping and driving husband insane :-)

So Monday being a holiday we had a early dispersal on Friday, so I left work @ 3:00pm reached home by 4:00. Made tea, cooked dinner and loaded the washing machine. By 5:30 I completed all this and went to pick up husband from his office. The plan was to pick boo boo after him and then come home and go out for dinner. Since I already cooked dinner we had to fit the grocery shopping somewhere in between. So from M’s office we both went to get groceries and then pick up booboo.

Whenever we go out on a vacation I make it a point to finish the weekend cleaning so that when I come back all tired this one huge task is hanging on my neck like a sword. So Friday night I spent cleaning the second floor, feed booboo and clean the first floor finish the laundry, arrange the clothes in closets, eat dinner and load the dishwasher. Phew!!!!i feel tired while typing this. So cleaning here means, dusting, cleaning the bathrooms, mopping the floor, and second floor needs vacuuming. Saturday morning woke up early, packed our bags, showered, fed boo boo, fixed breakfast for self and M and we hit the roads by 10:30am instead of the planned 9:00am.

Weather was perfect, a clear sky and crisp sunny morning it was. Drove about two hours and made a pit stop at one of the service areas, grabbed some lunch and this time I took the steering and more or less it was a good drive except for a 20minutes traffic jam. We checked in and relaxed for a about half an hour and then drove towards the city center where we had to take the boat which will take us around the lake for an hour. Dinner was at this Mexican restaurant and then a long walk around the city center. As I mentioned vacations for me are more about waking up late and no fixing breakfast than running under a tight schedule to cover all the so called spots and click some pictures.

Sunday morning woke up late or rather slept till boo boo allowed us to followed by a continental breakfast provided by the hotel. First half of the day we spent playing golf, infact booboo also got a plastic golf club and he enjoyed chasing the ball. So there was this gaming arcade in the golf course, where I played some games using quarters and won around 350 points which I used to but a huge soft toy for booboo which he loved. We quickly finished a pizza lunch and headed for go-karting. I was not sure how we can manage to go kart with boo boo. Well M had plans, we both took separate karts and M’s cart was a two seater and booboo sat with him. I literally braced myself and left the matter in almighty’s hands, I have not heard of a two year old hitting the go karting track. After the stipulated time both father and son came out laughing and it seems booboo had a blast, I tell you he is a little monster.

From here we went to the six flags-great escape. I had this same question, what will a two year old do there, apparently this two year old in question has a lot to do. He sat on some 9 rides and came out laughing and this included the roller coaster which almost gave me a heart attack. The day ended on a good note, I got to go-kart and play in the arcade, M, me and BooBoo got to ride so many rides. We came home around 10:00 fed and bathed and put booboo to sleep. And this is the time we (M & I) get to sit and talk and relax. I was so looking forward for the next day. To my surprise M wanted to visit the six flags again on Monday and then drive back home, but I was not sure about that. Morning we checked out of the hotel, went straight to the lake and we went parasailing. It was so much fun, I loved it. As we were driving towards six flags I happened to see this huge shopping area with all the names like Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren, Banana Republic, GAP, COACH, Gymboree, and many more. That’s about it, I demanded to be dropped off there and gave husband the choice to take booboo along with him to six flags or wherever he pleased. I knew my man cannot leave me and go, guys please its not love, he doesn’t trust me in such places. So we shopped till we dropped, I brought shirts, tops, hand bags, summer wear for booboo, summer clothes for husband, a dinner set from corelle & shoes for all. By the way husband is planning a bank robbery to pay the credit card bills else he needs to sell his kidney to raise the money. But I had fun. Around 4:30 we hit the freeway to drive back home. Booboo slept almost for two hours and later also he was a sweetheart and did not bother me while I was driving, husband was getting nervous looking a the speedometer, It read 80mph most of the time.

As planned I came home and the house was spic and span, I had cooked extra food on Friday so no cooking, I had to microwave it and eat. Unpacked the bags, arranged everything, finished the laundry, fed boo boo and ourselves. By 11:00pm I finished everything and called it a day.

Today morning I am fresh and infact looked forward to come back to work.

P.s., I forgot to write about ice cream. Somehow there were hundreds of ice cream shops there and I resisted the temptation and managed till we made the pit stop on our way back. There I gave it up for a chocolate vanilla cone. Delicious it was.
