:P
So yeah, I forgot about my blog'n stuff. Well, not forgot, more like discouraged. I went, "meh, nobody reads my blog." Buuut, no, that's not the case. So yeah, *posts*
So, I'll start off with an account of my 4th of July week down in Southern Ca.
Day 1
Got to wake up at 4:30 today! yay! Lots and Lots of driving, as you can guess, about eight hours approximately. Anyway, so we're driving, I do many things while driving, listen to my MP3 player, (pretty much Extreme Ways, Battlestar Galactica, Nightwish, and Within Temptation)played a game of Age of Empires: Age of Kings DS with my brother. (for a cheap knockoff of an awesome game, it wasn't that bad.) And... uh... sat? Yeah, that's pretty much it.
At around eight o'clock we stopped at Harris Ranch for breakfast, and yum! I had a sausage, cheese and ham omelet with country potatoes. Very good, Harris Ranch has always been awesome.
So, on the road again, kinda like the song, accept for the, "so glad" part. Anyway, we drive for a good while, then we get into a traffic jam. Well, turns out that on Highway 5, there was some kinda fire that was started and we had to go an alternate rout. We stopped at a gas station, and decided not to go the alternate rout. Then we decided we did, but we had to get back on 5. So, we did. Fire thing was over when we got back on so it was smooth sailing till we got to the hotel.
I have to say something. I don't know if it was just this Marriott or what, but the Marriott sucks. The first room we got the bathroom door wouldn't close properly, I mean literally it wouldn't close. When you did finally get it closed, it was stuck. We ended up complaining and we got another room. Same type, but at least the door closed properly. So after that we go down by the beach to get something to eat.
The beach is an awesome place to go, but not when it's over-crowded. I'm not kidding, this beach was crowded. It took about a half hour to find a parking spot, we ended up getting one in front of a pool-bar. They didn't actually sell beer, but the bouncer up front said that people usually buy something from the liqueur store then hang out at this place. Also in front of the place were two girls "looking for work", if you get my drift. At first I couldn't tell that's what they were doing, cause everybody was really nice over there, but later I went, "ohhh, THAT'S why they were standing outside that place."
So, what do we get for spending a half hour trying to find a parking spot? This little hole in the wall called the Crab Bucket. Now granted, the food WAS good, but it was really really crowded. I was expecting somewhere a little nicer to sit down at , instead of feeling like I needed to eat my food ASAP so the people standing next to me could sit down. (there wasn't really anybody standing next to me, but that was the atmosphere of it.)
After that, we went back to the hotel and swam. Then after that, bed.
