Well, it wasn’t perfect. It wasn’t as good as our beach trip last year. Or maybe I have forgotten any challenges or downsides to that trip. Maybe just the fun stuff from that trip stuck in my memory. And if I could only remember the fun stuff from this past weekend’s trip would I want to forget the challenges. We can certainly laugh about them too.
There were quite a few distractions and events that came our way and tried to spoil our weekend. And putting them in perspective, they weren’t the worst things in the world. Our adventures with the bus trips were minimal delays. And even though I didn’t have everything planned out when we went into the city we at least got to explore a little bit. Our hotel stay was certainly pleasant enough. We had a lot of fun while we were there.
I believe we had a good plan when we went out for the evening. It was certainly close enough. And even though the music wasn’t always polished and sometimes far from it, it was entertaining. And the crowd was fun. I think we proved something on the dance floor, especially for “white” people, and one who is approaching his “senior” years.
The next day, the time at the hotel was fun. I think we squeezed a lot into that morning.
And I think we had a great plan after we left; coffee, a light lunch, walking. Little did we know that we would be on the verge of being stranded. But even that turned out to be minor.
Despite the challenges our weekend couldn’t go too wrong. We were together. We love each other. We still know how to have fun together. And we danced!
It was a great weekend in my mind. I was proud of us for keeping our cool and rolling with the punches. No matter where we go or challenges we face, we seem to manage to have a good time just being together. I think I recall challenges on just about every getaway we’ve had. Mostly minor stuff but we always get past the challenges and make the most of of what we have to work with. And yes sometimes we get a laugh out of it.
I couldn’t imagine our life without the ability to laugh at ourselves. It seems we began early getting a good laugh at what some might not find so funny. Remember jumping the median with that rental car? Or the leg cramp/heart attack? Or the early morning mess in the bed? All times I remember laughing so hard tears emerged. LOL And I don’t think I will ever forget the wheel chair guy who came home to us. ROTFLMAO!
I couldn’t imagine experiencing any of this stuff without you. It’s very appropriate that you call this blog Soulmates… cause that is just what we are as long as we are together.
