Cup cake

A crafty weekend off island starting today. We fly to Miami soon and will then drive the hour and a half north up the I95 to Palm Beach where we will eat, drink and shop for a few days with our daughter’s 3rd birthday being the centrepiece of the weekend.

Her only wish is a cupcake, which I think we can manage but the weekend coincides conveniently with Halloween, which we know the Americans are nuts for, and on Saturday we will be at nearby Spookyville to be scared witless, well a teeny bit anyway.

We have thrown in the suitcase a fancy dress outfit for our daughter, and I’ll be surprised if we can keep it off her until Saturday. Otherwise it’s shorts and t-shirts as the weather is still warm although there’s rain in the forecast as an end of season Tropical Storm named Sandy isn’t too far away, although I am hoping it will dissect Bermuda and the South East of the U.S. and not cause us any travel problems. Probably famous last words.
