several of my teachers were there doing last minute shopping at the bookstore.  after the tour i set up a table and gave calvin a massage.  then we hopped back on the bikes and headed to the prairie.  first stop at the bolen bluff trail, through the spanish mossy woods and out to the prairie.

one more stop at the prairie boardwalk and then back on the bikes.  

we made it all the way to the UF bat houses  in time to check out several gators in the wild life sanctuary/pond, waited for the (unimpressive) twilight bat egress, then biked back to La Tienda for some delicious Mexican food.

 Calvin ate impressively:  3 fish tacos, Huevos Rancheros, and a Burrito.  I ate fish tacos and nibbled on his extras!  While we were devouring the deliciousness, a friend texted about watching a silly movie, so after a brief stop for wine and another at home for warm clothes, we headed over there for a home viewing of Elf, a ridiculous Christmas movie.  then Home and Bed!
