Today has been the longest day. Best part? I woke up at 8AM! That's two hours later than usual. I woke up to freshly brewed coffee made by Danny. I could have slept later, but we wanted to get breakfast and checkout of the hotel by 11. It was nice to just lay around and be lazy, without having to chase around the puppy.
We went to Blynk for breakfast. My Mom ordered a gift certificate for our trip. I don't think she really looked at the menu though. We all thought it would be a real breakfast place, but it was a counter service, completely organic place. Like, everything was biodegradable, natural, and organic. It was good, but not what we were craving. I had a yummy yogurt parfait with cranberries and almonds. And the strongest coffee...ever.
Then we made the four hour trek back to Jacksonville. Atleast we were in good moods on the way home! It's seriously the longest ride ever. So close but so far away.
I couldn't wait to pick up the puppy! I always feel bad bringing her to the kennel. I picture her sitting in the corner and no one wanting to play with her. On the report from the day camp it says she is shy and nervous. And she likes to play with the humans more than the dogs. And that she really likes to cuddle. My little lovebug!
We didn't do anything today. Went to the pawn shop for some movies and ate some Mexican food. Even thought I'm pretty sure no one was actually hungry.
Now the guys are playing Wii golf and we're planning the rest of our weekend. Haircut, tattoo, and Myrtle Beach! Can't wait!

Day Three: PAUL MCCARTNEY!
Yesterday was a-ma-zing. There's not even a word to describe how awesome the concert was.
But let's back up. We were four very cranky people on the way out to the concert. This is what the ride looked like...
Let's just say it was a very long four hours. With no talking. We couldn't wait to get out of that car!
But get alcohol into our systems...and we're good to go! We had dinner at Enso, an amazing sushi place. Everything was so so good! We had stuffed mussels to get started, had some wine and sushi. It was a great way to start the night!
After dinner we walked around the area a little bit. I wish we had more time, Charlotte looks really nice!
It was so so hot out. We stood in line waiting for the doors to open, and sweated our butts off. At 6PM they finally opened!!
We couldn't wait to get to our seats and for the show to start. But we had to wait for TWO hours before the show started. But once it did...it was amazing. He sang all of our favorite Beatles and Wings songs. Two and a half hours of Sir Paul singing, playing guitar, piano, ukulele. My favorites? Hey Jude, everyone singing together...I got chills. Back in the USSR, I just love that song so much! Let it Be, all time favorite. And so many more, seriously, there wasn't a bad song!
And now...videos!!!!
After the show and all the beers, we wanted some food! We headed to Wild Wings Cafe and had some salty deliciousness that tasted so good at the time...but totally regretted it today! Fried pickles, yum!
We got back to the hotel, had a good laugh over the size of the pullout...and passed out after an AWESOME day!
