Jaime Visits- July 2016

Jaime's trip to Turkey was cancelled because a faction of the Turkish Armed Forces attempted a coup of the government on July 15, and the continuing bad situation there as President Erdoğan cracks down on civil liberties.

She got here Saturday and played with the kids a little and helped with bedtime reading. Then we celebrated that they were asleep with margaritas. Sunday, she went for a "spirit walk," which means she walked to the Sound  and then got lost. Then we went to the beach. We spent most of the time in the water because my kids are happy little fish and sad little land crabs. James hung all over Jaime in the water and Miranda insisted I hold her horizontally so she could "swim." Miranda was so angry when I made her get out of the water finally.

Kevin got back from his trip to Boston, and Jaime and I went out for dinner and drinks in Port Jefferson. We went to Kimi Sushi which I think I actually like better than Benten now. The sushi is just as good as Benten, the staff is much nicer, and when you're done, you're already in Port Jefferson for drinks or ice cream. After we that went to Brewology for drinks. Port Jefferson was full of people even though it was Sunday night. Port Jefferson loves the summer. We went different ways for dessert,  I got a dark chocolate ice cream at the Ice Cream Cafe, and then Jaime got licorice at Port Jefferson Frigate.

Port Jefferson was also really busy because it's been overtaken by Pokemon-playing zombies (like me). Tons of people there to play on a Sunday night because there aren't a lot of places with as many stops and pokemon as there are there. Plus you can eat and drink while you're there.

On Monday after our library craft program, Jaime met us for lunch at Sweet n' Savory. I'm officially obsessed with the savory crepes there.

After her fun visit here she went on to visit her parents in Massachusetts then go on a fun roadtrip to Arethusa Falls in New Hampshire and Wells, Maine. Lots of fun!
