25 things i learned on my vacation...
1. leaving early from work on the day of your vacation makes everything that much sweeter.
2. GPS is from God. seriously.
3. Trust your instincts when booking hotels online or you'll wind up with either someone trying to get into your room at 2am or at a time share...
4. Atlanta was surprisingly beautiful. Nashville was a DUMP!
5. Driving thru the appalacian mountians is fine during the daytime. quite the opposite at night. imagine 4 lanes of interstate traffic, all going 80mph at a 6% incline with semi's on either side of you. the runaway truck ramps were a little ominous...
6. The interstate looks like one big city from Chattanooga to Orlando...
7. Even if the hurricane advisory is for southern florida and waaaaay off the coast of orlando, you will still get high winds and rain as it passes by.
8. Florida roads + rain = winnipeg streets in the winter. NO TRACTION!
9. not everything is cheaper in the states.
10. i'm now addicted to dasani vitamin water...pomegranate blackberry flavor. but why does it have no calories in the states and up here theres 5 calories per bottle?
11. in the northern states there are casinos everywhere just off the interstate. In the south its nudie truck stops...apparently they BARE ALL...and have GIANT billboards telling you that every 5 miles.
12. Did i mention GPS is from God?
13. Universal Studios is awesome. but i will say that i have never seen so many gay men and lesbians in one place at one time. apparently the saturday we went was possibly 'gay day'. seriously. no word of a lie...
14. robs the shopper...not me. SHOCKING! we went to the outlet mall and i bought flip flops. seriously. flip flops. what the heck???!!?!?
15. but i can always find something in womens home depot....SEPHORA! i got my eyelash curler! yay! and a few other things...
16. give a teenager a year to grow and he'll grow....hes a young man now! and his brothers arent far behind him!
17. no matter where you go, you can always run into someone from your hometown.
18. the beachhouse is the best....
19. i can acclimate to florida temperatures pretty fast...
20. i cant go back to watching a hockey game the same way again...i've been spoiled...
21. think big, and just when you thought you had reached the limit, think bigger!
22. if you're willing to listen, you'll hear what you need to hear.
23. faith is spelled R-I-S-K.
24. my marriage can survive and thrive on a 64hr+ road trip
25. going on holidays is sweet, but coming home is much sweeter...
oh, and did i mention that GPS is from God? dont leave home without it!
