Bette: Looks like we are at a stopping place. We will do the hanging clothes tomorrow.

Tina: Yeah, we are 15 minutes into our nap time.

Bette: Sorry. But we did get a lot done. I think we can finish in here by tomorrow.

Tina:  Yeah, you worked rather efficiently on your things.

Bette: When in doubt, throw it out. If it doesn’t make the first cut, I know I’ll never use it. Maybe someone else can.

Tina: Come on Babe. Let get our nap in.

Bette kissed Tina and then began to strip down to her underwear and bra and crawled into bed. Tina was right with her. They cuddled and fell asleep rather quickly.

The others had gone upstairs a good 30 minutes earlier. They were down to the questionable items on packing so, an afternoon nap was in order.

Bette and Tina awakened right at 5:00 p.m. They quickly got up and showered and readied themselves for their dinner outing. Tina called the doorman and asked for two cabs to Gramercy Park area. Three passengers in one and two in another.

After a discussion, they agreed that Tina would ride with Angie and Daniel and Bette would ride with Mary. On the return trip they could swap cab mates. This was so that Bette and Tina paid the cab fare. They did not want Mary to be using her funds and that was always a possibility.

After getting ready, they found their family looking sharp and seemingly refreshed after a nap. They then headed for the elevator and gave the cab driver’s the specific address of Thai Villa. Bette and Tina arranged that the cabs would return in two hours to make the return trip to Mid-town Manhattan.

The family enjoyed a variety of foods at the restaurant – mostly salmon and sea bass dishes with oriental vegetables and seasonings. This was an unusual treat for Mary as she and her friends were not adventurous in their restaurant selection. She was accustomed to going to western fare or Mexican cuisine. She enjoyed the spices and sauces used in the Thai foods as well as the vegetables.

Mary: This food is so good. If I stay too long with you guys, I’m going to need a new wardrobe to go with my somewhat increase in body.
