While the staff we hired along with our chef did a great job cleaning most of the dishes, that of course could not include the dishes we were still eating and drinking from when the staff left after the last dish. Washing just that was a lot of work, so I can't imagine how much it would have been to wash everything.
But of the main job was to separate rentals from our stuff, salvage food that was salvageable, including re-inviting family that was still there on sunday to help us finish the leftovers, including the huge amounts of cake we had left (since we were flying out 2 days later, most of the food had to go).
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the already opened wine, that was also something we had to deal with :)
by now, it wasn't looking too bad, except for food, wine, and 80-ish glasses to wash
can't be so hard, can it?
knife didn't work soo well on half deflated balloons
and dangerous to nails :)
perfect problem to solve with engineering, an aerosol and lighter

Doh, I totally forgot to plan for that, it took close to 1H to get all the balloon pieces from the bark
Monday, I'm not too sure what we worked on, but the day went by very quickly: returning all the rentals, more cleanup, last minute planning for our trip, fixing just broken sprinklers so that the grass doesn't die while we're gone, packing/freezing left over food, and of course packing our luggage. |
