Spring Break Day 1-3




Hey everyone! Just as promised, here is the run-down of my kickass spring training with Ashley!

Day 1 - Friday the 10th:

After lunch we got the pleasant surprise of one Gina Bator. It was great to see her again and it'll be even better when she comes up for a weekend again!! (Shaking Fist) Well after a quick hangout that included an Ocarina, Smash Brothers, and Stephen Lynch, it was time for me to go.

Me and Ashley hit the road and we arrived at my house around 6ish. After a nice "homecooked meal", Chinese Food, we settled down for the night and went to bed early. Now is the time where you read that and say..."HAHAH Greg and Ash go to bed early? Riiiiight." But in reality, we did. But only because we had to get up at 8 in the morning so that we would be able to get up at 6 the next morning.

Day 2 Saturday the 11th:

So we were up early (MISERABLE but up) so we headed out to Wal_mart for some last minute supllies. Well $100.00 later, i had all me last minute supplies... :P

So we were off to Ashley's house and we again had a great "homecooked" meal viz 'Nick's Roastbeef'. After hanging out with Courtney (Ashley's sister) and her friends, we again hit the hay early because...........WE WERE GOING TO FLORIDA IN THE MORNING!!!!

Ok so the above CAPS statement basically sums up how much sleep i got That night.

Day 3 - Sunday the 12th

Anyways, after an extremely restless night, i went into Ashley's room to wake her up bright and early (6:00am) on Sunday Morning. And yes...i had a death wish. But i didn't care if Ashley hated me for a good two hours after she woke up (which she usually does), cuz i was going to FLORIDA TO SEE THE RED SOX SPRING TRAINING!!!

Ok sorry about that...

So we jumped on the Logan Express and arrived at our jetBlue check-in right on time! So when we got there, we stood in the only other line minus "International Flights." After about 25 minutes or so, we find out that we are in the wrong line, and we needed to be in the International Flights, because obviously, Boston to New York to Florida is an International Flight. Don't ask...it's Logan Airport...

So now we play the waiting game, after going through security and having to take our shoes off, SOOO weird. And now we sat in the terminal watching our plane get loaded and anxiously waiting to board......TO GO TO FLORIDA!!

Well the time came and we boarded the plane. Our flight was going to JFK in New York first for an hour lay-over, but it was kinda cool seeing the New York airport too. After a short time, we boarded the plane set for Florida, and we were again on our way!

After a slightly bumpy ride (one that you forgot about because jetBlue has individual TV's in the headsets of all the seats....SO COOL!) we landed safely in Fort Myers, FL, and we quickly met up with Grammy and Grampy Taylor.

We collected my 49 pound bag (it's florida, i assumed id be going through like 3 outfits a day....i didn't know they had a washing machine at the house...shut up) and we took a nice long walk through the parking lot, because i think they found the farthest spot from the terminal. But no biggie.

After a quick car ride, we arrived at the Wonderful Elderly Ville house, (AJAX was def there!) and we started to unpack and get acquintted with the place.

After visiting briefly with Ashley's cousin, our vacation was in full force! We went for a bike ride around the villa to see the Gater. We checked out the shuffleboard courts. (which later that night i lost horribly to Ashley and Grampy. Gram was on my team and I'm almost positive she hated every minute of it...hehe.)

We headed back to the house after the shuffleboard game and had Ice Cream and started the puzzle that would keep us entertained for the week. Heh oh what a life it was!

After a little Tv, it was off to bed early, because tomorrow....


WE WERE GOING TO SPRING TRAINING!!!!

*Tune in later next week when i continue with our kick ass vacation!

Keep On Rocking In The Free World!
