Things I didn't Mention

Ok, here's the section with all the gory details of the trip that I didn't talk about yet. My dramamine medicine ran out the first night and I didn't realize that I needed more until it was too late. At dinner time, I took two steps into the restaurant and felt dizzy, nauseous, tingling in my whole body, and ready to faint. I turned around and sat on the ground nearby wondering what to do and how I was going to survive five days of this. Oh man!!! I went back to the room and crawled into my bed, ate a few bites of something and took medicine. The next morning was a vast improvement and the vacation became fun for me.

Ooh, don't let me forget to mention that I had to change Zoe's diaper while wearing a sequin dress and high heels under a stairwell with no wipes and one diaper. Yep, that was fun. The bathroom was far away and we were in the middle of dinner on formal night so I cut a few corners. Another highlight was constantly taking extra boxes of cereal for the girls to snack on. At any given time, I had four boxes of Cheerios, Lucky Charms, or Fruit Loops in my bag for the squirrels to eat. I felt like a thief!

The nightclub was great, my friends and I danced up a storm and acted silly when the 80's music came on, complete with "Thriller" and "Footloose". The penny slots kept calling my name, so I went and tried my luck with great results. After stating that I wanted to be able to scream and shout about winning, I hit two times in a row and earned myself some spending cash! That was exciting and I felt very satisfied.

We were very blessed to go on the trip and share that special time with our family. Regardless of all the little hiccups and speed bumps, we had fun and helped two people join together in marriage on a very beautiful and special day.
