I thought it had rained much of the time we were in Mystic but actually the weather had been nice enough that the kids did get to be on and in the water a good portion of it. Thursday, off they went again with grandma and grandpa. And, yes, no one fell off the boat.Meanwhile I got to sneak off to browse the shops on Main Street... I was good... 'just bought two books from Bank Square. One was Perfume by Patrick Suskind (the movie also already out on DVD... I wanted to read the book before watching the movie but from what I hear both are pretty amazing) and the other, The Priest's Madonna by Amy Hassinger (a fictional story revolving around the priest from Rennes-le-Château who supposedly found out the whole secret behind Mary Magdalene). Yes, ala DaVinci code for those who just can't get enough of the whole Dan Brown phenomenon. I actually did have my fill of the DaVinci code thing but the few pages I skimmed over seemed well written and it's supposed to be told through the eyes of the priest's housekeeper and *gasp* lover. Well, color me happy, I needed some fluffy reading.
