Journey begins, travel to Wilmington and save Graham from city punks. 2:30 hour trip down to beach get there near 1, Tim and Kelly still working for first hour and find out Erin won't be making it...not the greatest start, go to the beach, JUST TOOK A GREAT STEP FORWARD! The beach is amazing and the waves are 20 feet high and a current that drags you a foot to the left every time you're feet leave the ground! After around 30 mins we feel like we've fought death itself so we hang in the sand. Then we go to the salt water pool in Tim's development and swim for hours. . We get food at this Bethany blues BBQ place. The foods great! Then we watch Summer School, PS: actually really funny movie and there's a lot of actors who I know from recent things. After that, a nice dip in the hot tub then a few hours talking in the living room before we're off to bed!
Day two, the adventure continues, and my recollection of the order of the awesome events gets fuzzy. We already know it's going to rain. We decided to spend the day renting movies and going to this awesome old toy store. I find out they have a game section in the back and I buy 2 NES games and 1 Sega, great for a gaming nerd like me! Graham gets some transformers too! We then watch Hot Tub Time Machine, which was also a good movie...but frankly not sure I want to see it more than once. Then we travel around the board walk and go into some funny shops. We then return to Tim's place and Me, Tim and Graham all go swimming in the salt water pool for a few hours. Go back to the house and eat some burgers and dogs off the grill with Kelly's awesome homemade mac and cheese (with Tomato sauce, odd but yummy). We then watch a lot of funny wedding related things, such as how I met your mother and the office to celebrate Tim and Kelly's engagement. By the end of the day we can hardly stand so we all pass out and agree to get up early.
THIRD DAY AND TO THE BEACH WE GO, FIRST THING! It's super clear so we get a great spot and the waves are perfect. We arrive around 8:30, and while fighting the large (but calmer then before) waves Graham Yells "RIDE IT BOYS!" and we obey...which ends with a mouth full of water and losing the ground as it dips down. 3 hours and 100's of gallons of salt water later we decided to head back to Tim's again. We pack up, take showers and eat some lunch. Graham and Kelly need naps so Tim, Matt and I battle it out in Goldeneye for the N64 a bit. After that's over we all start our goodbyes and we're off.
The train from Wilmington doesn't go up to philly on Sunday so I have to drive him up. We stop only to check on my car at my dad's (ps: it's in the shop now...more on that later) We go to China town and have to kill an hour for his bus to New York so we get some Chinese food in China town! After a good conversation we say good bye and I travel down to Tim's because I'll be working on Monday and Tuesday at Silver Spring...weird but that's a story for another day! CAUSE THIS IS A HAPPY POST!
