I should have known that a visit from my family would include many comical stories to look back on, since all of our vacations always do, but I didn't expect so many to happen the first day they arrived. After we ate some bread & cheese (we never did make it to dinner) and hung out for a little while, catching up, we decided it was time for bed so we could begin our sight seeing in the morning. My mom and I went upstairs to our room, Taylor went to the other room she and Nikki were sharing, Nikki was going to shower before bed and Uncle Mike settled in on the couch with the iPad in hand ready to begin his 24 marathon.
From bed, I could hear what sounded like water dripping, but I just assumed it was sounds from the shower in the next room, boy was I wrong. All of the sudden you hear footsteps flying up the stairs, and Uncle Mike going into the girls room to ask what was going on. Hearing the conversation from the door was quite comical, especially when you heard him pounding on the bathroom door telling Nikki to turn the shower off, followed by the two of them talking trying to figure out where the water was coming from. Turns out, there was a bit of a leak. We walked downstairs to find a huge puddle on to floor with water dripping from the ceiling, guess that was the dripping noise I heard. It took all of the towels in the apartment and a pot to catch the water still dripping from above to clean up the mess. Good thing Uncle Mike was down there though, I can only imagine what the mess would have looked like had he not noticed the problem.
Good thing there were two bathrooms in the apartment because we will definitely be steering clear of that shower for the rest of our visit...
