Problems at the Resort

Dear Calista,
We are having bad luck with the weather, too! We went to Mexico for a resort vacation. It was sunny but very windy on our first day. Then the temperature dropped quickly, and a huge thunderstorm started. It was so bad that the electricity went off, and the backup generator flooded with water. The hotel gave us a flashlight, but the batteries died after 10 minutes.
Your Uncle Denny was in the bathroom when the batteries died, so he couldn’t find the door! I was in the hotel lobby, trying to call your mum, so I didn’t know he was stuck in the bathroom. Uncle Denny was walking around the bathroom in the dark. He fell down, and the toilet bowl broke off the wall. Water sprayed everywhere! It knocked my perfume bottles off the counter, and they broke on the floor. Poor Uncle Denny was lying in a huge pool of water and perfume on the bathroom floor in the dark for 20 minutes, and the water was still spraying out of control from the broken toilet bowl! When I came up to the room, I heard Uncle Denny shouting for help. I opened the bathroom door and a river of water came out and knocked me over. The smell of perfume was so strong that I almost passed out! We laugh about it now, but it was pretty bad while it was happening. Uncle Denny still smells like perfume!
Love,
Aunt Helen
