so many things to say...let me start at the beginning
Friday came and went without a hitch. I really can't remember too much of Friday now that I think of it. I guess I was just cleaning up the place for the arrival of my Miami friends. I'm sure my mom and I went somewhere and I think it was back at Hogbody's where they have 17 different types of hamburgers and 54 types of chicken wings. And let me tell you they have some of the best burgers and wings I've ever tasted. Finger Licking Good!!!
Saturday was very stressful! It started off with my friend NB calling and saying that Mapquest is the worst thing invented and that his friend J must be behind its creation. That's because anytime J says go left then you go right. Believe me he's that wrong that many times. Anyway NB was coming up I95 and he had to travel around a bend, go down a ways then end up on I75. Well he calls and says that he's lost and that he must have missed the exit and he wound up all the way back from where he started. OH BOY! I thought for sure he was just gonna go back home and call it a lost. Thank God I explained it to him in a way that he found his way and what was supposed to be a 3 hour ride turned out to be a 5 hour ride.
But boy was it worth it!
First thing he did was call and say "ok I'm here. come get me." So I went down with mom and picked him up at his hotel room. BTW that was a beautiful room right on the water. He cancelled the room like 3 times and ended up with this corner room facing the water that was just perfect. He has a very powerful guardian angel on his shoulder.
So we went to this place called Fisherman's Village where they have shops and restaurants very Key West like. We ate at Harbour Harry's which was just oysters, mussels and clams with the coolest looking beer bottle we had ever seen. It was for Michelob Light and the bottle was made of a hard aluminum with this blue design. It was so nice that we were gonna keep the bottle. That was up until we saw a Bud Light bottle with the same look. Bummer!
Well after we finished eating there we went to another restaurant. Yeah we're eaters. Anyway this time it was an Italian restaurant and it's the best Italian I've ever tried. Donato's is the name of the place and they have this cute little tradition where the staff sings Amore by Dean Martin and they really sing the hell out of it. I was telling NB about it and saying I hope they do it and I swear right after I said it they did! All together now "When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie that's Amore".
Well that was just my one friend. There were more stressful moments along the way. Like for instance my friends Leela and Dean. They were on their way when they got a flat tire. I knew my Leela very well and the first thing I say is "honey just fix the thing and get here, we're gonna have a great time." Well this is all during my time with NB so we are doing our stuff when the cell rings...It's Leela saying that the tire guy wants to sell her a new tire and he won't fix the tire. It seems that the manager over at Martino's Tires feels like ripping off their customers by ripping new hole in the flat tire and telling their clients to spend unnecessary money on their product. Well this of course sets Leela off and she's calling me saying "Listen I can't get my tire fixed so I'm going back to Miami and I'll go there tomorrow. Well I knew for certain that that meant she wasn't coming this trip and that it was just me, mom and NB. After a time I get another call and IT'S LEELA SAYING THAT SHE CHANGED HER MIND AND THAT SHE'S COMING...YEAH!!!!!!!
Seems She went to Hialeah and got her tire fixed and decided that she would just come now. Oh Happy Joy! She and I both knew that if she didn't...well you know!
So Leela and Dean get into town and the party starts...
