Monday - March 27

The boys decided they wanted more beach time today, so Mark took them back to the hotel for pool/beach time at 9:00   He stopped at Publix and then we left around 11:45 to meet the cousins.
 
It's been a very fun-filled day and it was all about "the cousins" who gathered in Daytona Beach starting with lunch at Aunt Catfish's.   There were 15 of us.
 
There are 9 cousins on my Mom's side of the family.    Six of them along with spouses and our
 Aunt Dee had so much fun laughing and reminiscing thru the years as kids growing up in northern Illinois.
 
Anne, Patrick, Liam and Connor came for lunch and then off to the beach.    Ron (brother) and Vicki came from Lakeland and went on home after lunch.    9 came aboard Catrina and sat up on top of the bridge this gorgeous day visiting and having so much fun.
 
Seven of us went to the Chart House for dinner and shared more memories!    They even had "Welcome Cousins" printed on our menus.   And then it was time to say good bye.....
this was a really special day!
