Back at the arcade!
Yep - the next morning we got up nice and early, headed out for breakfast, screamed at the moving company again (we're starting to get ignored by the manager now - I think he knows they've screwed this up pretty much as good as possible) and then off to the arcade. This time - Natalie and Karina come along. Mixed feelings here - they arent exactly known for their attention spans, especially where gaming is concerned :( Anyway theres a kiddies sections of rides etc downstairs - should be good for a little while at least. We start there, play a little air hockey, then I slowly slink off upstairs to the peace of the Robotron machine. Its not long before I'm getting hassled... a few credits later and I need to take them back to the lodge, and I return for an hours peacful blasting. Guilt makes me limit it to an hour and I go back to pick them up for a day out, but "I'll be back!"
So, we don't really know where to go - its still not full season so a lot of the atractions are closed. We have a drive around, find lots of closed arcades and other typical "seaside fair" and end up playing on the beach for a while. Although its a lake, its easy to forget this and think you're at the coastline... despite the cold wind we had a fun time playing on the sand and the playground with Karina, until she decides to get into 
the mud and water and start getting herself into a real mess. As usual, pulling her away from such incredible pleasures results in a screaming session, but thats par for the course! Its a shame it was so windy because its a nice place, and on a better day, with everything open, it could be a nice relaxing area to spend a little time. Anyway - the rest of the day was spent eating, chasing more chipmunks, bathing, and finally - more arcade action!!!! Tomorrow is our last day at Weirs Beach and we need to move on further down into Maine (or even to Boston - if our stuff arrives as promised - though I have a bad feling about that). I'm sure I can fit in one last arcade session...........
