First couple days

So, I set this thing up in the Toronto Airport, so i'll start filling in from then until today (Which is Friday the 15'th!)

I was absolutely dead when I got on here before, and like I said, the chairs sucked to sleep on.



Seriously, how am I supposed to sleep on that thing?

Other than that, the lounge was pretty rad. Had a bunch of different drinks, and I had a pretty good breakfast.



Anyways, I got on the plane and was sitting next to a lady and her daughter. We kinda chatted a bit, and I pretended I had no idea where we were going. I had my winter jacket with me and asked her "So, do you think i'll be warm enough with this on where we're going?" The look she gave me was pretty funny.

Anyways, made it through customs and all that jazz no problems, and met Dad, Stacey, and Megan outside. We went to their place and I started getting settled in.




Its totally on the 3rd floor. Thats right outside my room.
And this one is my room itself.




All in all its a great place i'm staying at.
It was a pretty "cold" day when I got here. A balmy 18', but it was pretty cloudy. I was nice and warm, but most everyone here was freezing.

Right away we went out to the little pool area/tennis court thats part of the condo unit here and went "ripsticking"
Its a little bit like snowboarding on wheels. Its like a skateboard with two wheels only, and you wiggle your back foot forwards and backwards to go. Its pretty hard, but here's my sister making it look like the most natural thing ever.



I didn't snap any pictures from yesterday, but I got to go see some more of the island, and had lunch at the golf course you can see from the house.

Today is gonna be pretty warm, the sun is out and not a cloud in the sky.

If you'll excuse me i'm going to get some food, then hit the beach.

Itinerary fail, exec lounge, and making this



So i'm just chilling out in the Executive Maple Leaf lounge in the Toronto Airport. Its 7:30 am here, which will be 5:30 am back home. I'm pretty tired but the chairs in here suck and I can't really get comfortable enough to sleep.

My 12:30 flight was just dandy. I slept for maybe half an hour and watch Public Enemies. That movie about bank robbers in the 30's with Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. It put me to sleep about 10 minutes in last time I watched it, but I must have been really into it this time cause I fell asleep over an hour in.

Oh, the itinerary fail that was mentioned in the title. (Which is ----^ up there if you missed it). I thought I was waiting in the Toronto airport from 5:30 am to 11:00 pm. Reading and Comprehension fail though, because 23:00 is 11:00 pm. 11:00 is 11:00 am. Smarty pants that I am.

I don't have any pictures uploaded yet. For now you get a cool pirate flag picture in spirit of me heading to where Piracy was the cats pajamas for a couple hundred years. I'll snap a couple shots this afternoon, and make a post or something tonight. Maybe.

Or i'll probably just go to bed instead.
