Last Sunday when we went to visit Grandma and CJ with Uncle Andrew, Andrew asked Alice what she wanted to do for her birthday. It was then that the idea for an escape room was formed.
Andrew came after school and picked up Alice and Fiona and took them to get Dairy Queen. (Kate had Steel Pan rehearsal, but her DQ was purchased and stored in the freezer.)
Alice decided to see if her friend Kathy could go - as she likes horror stuff. Alice, Andrew and Ken picked her up and off they went to Trapped in Pickering. The game was called Room 57. They beat the room and it took them 15 minutes less than the allotted time.
After that they dropped off Kathy - she had a class, and they picked up Kate and the four of them went out for dinner. (Fiona had gymnastics, so that's what Fiona and I were doing.)
Alice had a fun night! Now a side note about her friend Kathy. She and Kathy (Katerina) had music class together last semester. I can't remember exactly when Alice pieced it together, but at some point she figured out that Kathy was her long lost best friend from Kindergarten - the one year that she went to Carruthers Creek P.S. I remember Alice checking her School Days Memory book and seeing the name Katerina. Alice has really enjoyed making new friends in high school.
