Florida Fun!
Where do i start. I guess at the very beginning. Friday, Patty and I left around 1:45 for the Charlottesville airport. We got checked in and to the gate with no problems. I had stayed out too late the night before, so I was functioning with a brain cloud. I slept on both flights, I was so tired that I missed the take off on the flight to Tampa. The weather in FL was awesome. We got our car and navigated to St. Petersburg. We checked into the ghetto Travelodge. I call it ghetto because the rooms had outside entrances and didn't seem very clean. It was 11pm and we were starvin, so i ordered a pizza. I slept really well.
Saturday we got up late and ate breakfast at an old school IHOP. Now it was time to enjoy the beach. The ocean was beautiful and the sun was bright. We layed out for awhile. The water was pretty warm, but really calm. I would have gone for a swim, but there didn't seem to be a point since there were no waves. Soon it was time to pick up Gary at the airport. After that we were off to the cocktail party. This was pretty interesting. There was a really yummy crab and artichoke dip.
Sunday was pretty much like the day before. We layed out on the beach. Then went to The Pier for lunch and shopping. I thought it was pretty lame, but something to do. Then it was time for the wedding. It was fun to get dressed up in my new dress. The wedding was outside beside the beach at a beautiful resort, Don CeSar. The reception was really interesting, lots of yummy food, dancing and booze. The funniest part was with Emily's uncle Joe. He was the life of the party and got fixated on Patty. He asked her to dance and when she shook her head no and blushed, he was hooked. Every chance he got he would ask her to dance. I went once in her place, but he wasn't deterred. The best part was when we were returning from the rest room and he was by the door. I tried to block his view of Patty, but he saw her anyway. I let her go in front of me and put myself between them. He reached around my and was shouting "Patty, Patty". He had no idea who I was and didn't care, all he wanted was Patty. LOL
Monday went for a walk on the beach wearing shorts and a tank top. It was incredible! I was trying to think of a reason to return to Harrisonburg. Gary and Patty tried to convince me, but there wasn't a good reason. I finally decided to come back when Jeremy reminded me that I had given him a key to my house so that the gang could watch Sopranos. So with a reason to return, we headed for the airport. Our flights were uneventful. After we got into Charlottesville, we made a quick trip to the mall and then headed home.
So to sum up my trip, it was a lot of fun. Although not very eventful. It was extremely relaxing and wonderful to be on the sand and in the ocean.
The cats were happy to see me. Misty hasn't left my side all night. I can't believe i have to return to work tomorrow.
