Independent

Don't get me wrong. There's nothing i'd rather do than drive alongside some beautiful lady.
But to spend some time in the car on a national holiday with four beautiful ladies?
Now that's just tops.


Happy independence day everyone. I hope yours was as good as mine.
Waking up at 2:30 in the afternoon, walking to breakfast/lunch in the rain, and hanging out with Kristyn L. and her roommates at Pleasure Island, Disney watching the fireworks, that's hard to beat.

The only fourth of July that I think truly tops this one was last years, when, after a hard day working alongside Habitat for Humanity in Catamayo, Ecuador, our hostel fed us hamburgers and gave us American flag napkins.



Nothing makes you appreciate your country more than not having it.

Los Entiendo

It's a lot of fun to sit down next to someone speaking on the phone in a different language.
You just have to make sure to give them confused or put-off looks whenever they laugh genuinely.

You know, to keep them guessing.

Onward!

So, Kristyn and I got lost today. But not the bad kind of lost where you're not happy not knowing where you are and you follow a river in circles in the woods at night and your nose runs and you make a crappy faux-documentary while escaping from a folklore witch of the "Blair" variety.


Yeah, i'm looking at you, Dennis the Menace.



Anyways, we went out to look for something to do. Four hours later we got back, plus food from Sonic, a DVD, two CDs, two posters, heads full of memories and absolutely no clue where the hell we just were.

I'd totally do it again.
