To recap on the journey, my friends and I traveled down to Gulf Shores, Alabama on March 14th:
- March 14th: Immediately upon arrival we noticed the undeniable attraction to a team of baseball players (take note--this is important information later on in the week). After we all had a chance to settle down, we headed down to the pool. After a few cocktails, we checked out a fantastic restaurant called The Gulf. Stumbling through the mile walkway through sand, I enjoyed an over-priced burger with even better camaraderie.
- March 15th: BEACH TIME! I made my signature special of pink lemonade, pineapple juice, lot's of ice, and Malibu; and headed down to the surgary white sand. For some darn reason, alcohol seems to have the effect to make people wake up early. We headed down to the beach bright-eyed at 10am. The only issue with this....barely anyone was out at the beach at this hour (including the sun). We eventually found our saving grace from the wind, by hanging out at the volleyball courts and meeting our out-of-state friends. Let's just say this was our longest day, because later that day we moseyed our way over to Flora-Bama. The alcohol seemed to be wearing on me, because I barely ate anything all day. The chicken wrapped tasted DELICIOUS, however it took a good while to finally arrive.
- March 16th: Brunch was on the agenda for today. Other than brunch, we headed over to the Gulf for "l-inner" and chilled at the beach for the rest of the day. March 16th also marks the first time I ever had a Tequila shot. I was never one to drink until I turned 21, so I guess you could say I have not accomplished a lot at this point. At this point I was amazed how much alcohol men can put back day-after-day, with it barely wearing on them. Kudos to them.
- March 17th: On the agenda: Hurricane Party. Today was the second-to-last day of our trip, and on the agenda was to get rowdy all day long. I learned my new favorite game, Ring of Fire. After walking to the water at night, and talking to our Oklahoma and Alabama friends, this night probably was my favorite. I might also note that today was the day that one of my friends i-phones dropped from our 7th story balcony and SOMEHOW still works without a scratch on it.
Spring Break 2016...you will be missed. You did not really help me get many tan lines, because it was pretty gloomy throughout the week, however you've gave me memories that will last a lifetime. I hope all of y'all's Spring Break's were SAFE & FUN!
