70

30/9 70th birthday. Up at 7 for breakfast and wave the coach off. 4 of us left. Spoke to Dennis and Florence. Swam and jacuzzi. Out of room at 12 and Uber to JFK museum at Hyannis - good photos and videos, baseball bit not of interest. The real kennedy museum is in Boston. Taxi back to Blue Water - a deep voiced woman with no time for the Kennedys. At least it passed the time! Waited in the hotel foyer from 2.15 to 4.15 and then driver came to take us to Boston airport rain and traffic. Checked in at 6.30 - no internet. Ladies flight before ours. Read "Music and liturgy" BA flight left 30 minutes late - full gave us champagne. Watched A bigger splash and My big fat greek wedding 2 which was funny. Landed 10.30 a.m. Lou and the boys there to welcome us with big cards and hugs and took us home which was great!
