Giant drinks, 2 for 1

I don't think I need that much drink

Waitress: if you got 2 normal size drinks, it would cost the same as this.

                                               

                                               

       

                                                 

                                       

       

                                                

This is the Aurora, someone cool owns it. It's enormous.

       

So enormous in fact, that the buoys are about twice the size of me.

I haven't been feeling very witty lately. Maybe I'll write more later this week. I've got a pretty exceptional story to share.

Wine Bar

This weekend Jaclyn and I drove to Fort Lauderdale to see Rachel and Cody who are vacationing there for the week.  We ate supper at a cute little wine bar that was like nothing I've ever seen before. The wine was in coolers but set up like slot machines. You put money on a card, and slide it in the machine, pick your wine and size of glass and it just pours out. You could get a sample, half, or full glass. Revolutionary.

Tampa

Spent the night in Tampa and had brunch at a cute outdoor bungalow. Saw Tampa Bay and drove over the Sunshine Sky Bridge (it was really foggy)

                       

                        

                                                

       

       

       

                                               

                                               

The skybridge was absolutely terrifying and breathtaking all at the same time. At night it was pretty scary because you knew you were driving over water, but just couldn't see it. In the afternoon when it was so foggy, it was like driving through the clouds...well because you were.

Guide: So I studied at the University of Bugle, and have always loved marine life...blah blah blah 

<2 hours later in the car>

Me: so that guy was an idiot

Kendra: yeah no kidding, who tells people you studied at the University of Google.

Me: wait what?! Google? He didn't actually go to school

Emily: uh no Alyssa, where do you think he went

Me: errr the University of Bugle

Kendra: that isn't even a real school, have you ever even heard of that before?

Hi, do you know where I can buy the paper since you're out?

Hey guys I bought us each a lottery ticket!
