Rally ’round the…RV?
First off, I want to wish my beautiful bride Jan, a Happy 42th Anniversary!
Sweetie, You’ve made it all worthwhile.
Although today was the official start of the Gypsy Rally, nothing really happened until about 3 pm with the Welcome Meeting, since RVs were still arriving in the morning.
So about 11 am we headed out to a Chinese Buffet we had been told about, China Wok Buffet. And we weren’t steered wrong. It was very, very good. Probably in the top 5 of all the ones we’ve eaten at. We’ll go back.
About 2pm we went over to the Vendor area to look over what they had for sale.
We bought a couple of Rally T-shirts and Jan got 3 more magnetic bracelets. She’s had really good results with the one she got on the ferry to Newfoundland, and wanted to get some more…in different colors.
At 3pm the rally got off to a start with the introduction of the vendors and the seminar instructors. We then had a panel discussion where anyone could ask a question, and hopefully get an answer from one of the experts.
At about 5:30 pm we broke for dinner. Since it was our anniversary Jan and I decided to go to a nice place called Pullman Bay. Very good food, and even better pumpkin pie for dessert.
At 7 pm we had a door prize drawing session, with about 30 prizes. No luck for us, yet.
We broke for the night about 7:45.
Tomorrow, it starts with coffee and donuts from 7:30 am til 9. Then the first seminar starts.
More tomorrow…
