I did some of that! Also I bought nothing (possibly because I was far away from the computer I use for shopping, but it still counts).

Ate way too many waffles, admired Non’s racing game tracks (because it’s 2024 and kids can just construct 3D environments on their notepads), played Everdell with the tree replacement expansion and Settlers of Catan and Lords of Waterdeep (again) and Holiday Fluxx, ate too many leftovers, played SPANC again because Ayse didn’t get to play last time, managed to get to bed not long after midnight. I’m sensing some themes to this vacation.

We had bacon! And also waffles! And later in the day, the traditional Chinese takeout. In between, there was Everdell and swimming, and afterwards, those of us who were keen on astronomy went up to a remote airfield for a star party. Alas, my eyes are just not good enough, even with a 10″ telescope.

I was also not good enough at Everdell. I blame the large number of places to put a worker that I had to keep track of and could not easily read, some of which were hidden in other players’ tableaus. Obviously it’s something of a skill issue on my part, but I think it’s also a problem with the design.

Stayed up too late reading a copy What If? (by the xkcd guy) that was in the room where I was sleeping.
