We arrived in Rochester late Tuesday evening at about 7. Bailey was getting cranky in the car and we thought for sure she would eat dinner and crash when we arrived. Boy, were we wrong! We bathed her within 5 minutes of arriving and gave her a bottle but she was up past 9 pm exploring the new house and getting to know James and Allison. She finally went to sleep and slept the whole night. The next day we woke up and "attempted" to go the Lilac Festival, which was being set up for the upcoming weekend. However, the new Subaru Tribeca developed a severe vibration in the rear end. After calling the tow truck and arranging to go to the Subaru Dealer, the tow-truck driver discovered it was the Emergency Brake that was on! I never set the Brake and don't know why I did pulling in the driveway the night before. The big red "BRAKE" light didn't alert us in the dash either. After solving that mystery, we all had a wonderful time walking around the beautiful park and seeing the flowers and trees in bloom. Bailey really enjoyed being caried around by James.
After naps in the afternoon for all of us, we decided to check out the Erie Canal and take a short walk. It was really cool to see the lock systems. It was fun to see the paved bike path that runs from Albany to Buffalo...maybe we will return for a major bike ride someday.
From there, we went out to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and had a yummy dinner. James got to feed Bailey her carrots and he did a pretty good job. Perhaps James and Allison are ready for one of their own now!
The next morning we woke up and headed out by 10 (nap time for Bailey) and drove to Buffalo, which was only 60 miles away, to see Jeff, Tiff, Luke, and Roan.
