Girls night out

So mom and I went out one night without Dad, and girls night out quickly turned into girls night locked out.

I was feeling good so she and i went for a walk to check things out a bit. we went to the canal and zigzagged around, checking out some parks and statues. It was about nine o clock and dark but there were lots of people out and about.

Soon I had to go the bathroom. There were some public bathrooms on the street, but the smell of them stopped you at fifty yards. So mom and I decided to go in a cafe, buy a drink and some dessert, and then Id use the restroom. Then we realized we didnt have any money- dad had converted the dollars to euros and hadnt passed any out.

Thank goodness for visa. Mom remebered her credit card and so our plan was saved. We sat outside in the beautiful weathe- I had a creme-brulee, which was maybe the most delicious thing I ve ever tasted, and mom had a beer.

We decided to go back to the hotel a little before midnight. We got back to the front door uneventfully, only to find the front door locked and the concierge missing. Now we have no key- you have to leave your room key at the desk every time you leave the hotel. First I pushed the intercom button. Then we waited. Then we waited some more. finally, I went down the way to the entrance to the hotel bar. It was locked too, but I spotted someone in the back. I knocked and the concierge let us with many apologies.

Now, theres only one key, and it was in the room with dad. We were counting on him to let us in- it was his one job...
