Halloween, American Style


Our last day at Mrtyle Beach and we needed to be out of our time share aprtment by 10 a.m. today - although we thought it was 11 a.m. After cooking a breakfast to use up some of our groceries and clear the fridge (bacon and omelettes) we madly threw things into suitcases and bags and packed Andrea's car for the long drive back up north to Youngsville, North Carolina stopping only to get some fireworks for Bonfire Night and a couple of comfort/eating stops. We returned to the Raleigh area by a different route to that which we took coming down. This time we took Route 501 and Interstate 95 through Fayetteville rather than the longer route via Wilmington. We arrived back at David and Andrea's around 4.20 p.m. which gave us a couple of hours or so before the Halloween Party started. Sara dressed up as a witch (see picture) and me as a cow (also see picture)! About 50 or 60 friends and neighbours came and we partied until around 1.30 a.m. The third World Series game was also on the TV which resulted in the first win for Texas Rangers (4-2). The series now stands at 2-1 to the San Francisco Giants. There was plenty to drink and eat at the party and we all had a really good time - especially some of the neighbours!
