Vacation Was Way Too Short.. - torradan - 08-22-2006

Well we left on Monday morning (8/14), returned to Toronto Sunday afternoon (yesterday)... a whole week of doing absolutely nothing, going swimming, and boozing at the quiet, and remote
M & K Beaver Trailer Park
in the middle of nowhere (Omemee), Ontario.

And unfortunately it came to an end way too fast.

I thought before we started it: "Nice, a week off of relaxation, maybe when I get back to work on Monday, I'll be a little more mellowed out and not so edgy."

WRONG.

I think I need to win the lottery or something.

haha been there,

Going to Cuba, everything free, non-stop drinking and lounging not to mention gorgeous weather for an entire week..

Coming back to work and normal not-so-nice weather was such a kick in the ass. I did notice myslef buying alot more lottery tickets.. haha

haha we bought 649 tickets for the 42 million, only got $10 out of it, and then bought super 7(?) tickets with that $10.

And for the moment, Cuba isn't a very good option as a couply-type thing, if you read to the left where I'm from. I know I *can* go there, but I'm leary because if they were to stamp my passport, I'd have some issues renewing it/etc. (or I could just report it lost and get a replacement).

haha yet another benefit to being from the US :P

They want nothing to do with US down there, some guy was struttin around in a speedo with the US flag pattern, I saw him for the first 2 days all tough sh*t, then the rest of the week he was wearing swim trunks, made me wonder... Oh well, you can go anywhere else, I just dont think you can beat the price.
It cost me $500 for an entire week incl. air, hotel, food and booze. I think I drank about $600 worth of it the first day! :D

Yeah its dirt cheap, we were looking at Mexico and stuff for around $500/head.
Unfortunately, we couldn't afford it this year, since we're saving all of our money for immigration fees/moving costs/etc.
