Spent the past four days in southern Virginia. Left Thursday around noon first stop Williamsburg. Got there around 3PM and checked into the hotel, ate lunch and then went to the Ripley's museum and 4D theater. Spent a couple hours there. Next day checked out of the hotel and went to an outlet for a bit and then headed to Norfolk, VA to do a Naval Base Cruise.
Two hour cruise, saw all the different boats it took us through the Elizabeth river to Hampton Roads and the guy narrated for a while. Went and stood on the bow of the ship, titanic feeling, LOL. And then when the narration was done the boat was heading back. We went to the lower deck to go inside, parents sat in one row we took the row in front, while we are sitting some lady comes and goes "did you sit on our stuff?" I'm like umm No... unless you mean this trash thats your stuff, she thought she could reserve her seat by using trash. -_- I'm sorry I ain't moving lady, trash does not mean its taken. So yeah didn't move, she was pissed but I didn't care, took out my phone and saw that its rumored that Lisa Edelstein might be coming back to House!!!! OMG if thats true eeek!!!
Yeah so then left Norfolk and headed to Virginia Beach and checked in. Ate some and then went on the boardwalk for a bit. Got their right around sunset and the sky was GORGEOUS!! then it got dark lol.
Next day after breakfast went to the beach and sat their for a few hours reading Chasing Zebras, enjoying watching the water, stepped in the water, freezing cold, walking around, doing yoga, etc. I love the beach.
I want to get a beach house when I'm older, New Year's Eve day was very relaxing just sitting around the beach... rest of the familia that came down decided to go mini golfing and stuff but we passed on that to enjoy the beach, after all you go to the beach to GO TO THE BEACH... not leave the beach and go mini golfing... just saying I mean whatever floats your boat really. Then went out to find dinner, such a hassle... after that walked around the boardwalk some more and then went back in changed into PJs and sat to twitter/fb and watch Dick Clarks Rockin New Year's Eve :) what was gaga wearing?? LOL I like born this way though so that was a plus.
Today morning woke up to watch the sun rise over the ocean. So pretty!!
Went back to sleep and then got up and the seagulls were flying, the people in the suite next to ours were throwing food so we got some bread and threw some too they came so close it was so cool and they catch it in their mouths, they were fighting over food it was so cute!!! and they'd eat out of your hand!
And then alas after eating some pancakes and chugging some coffee, were on the road heading home. Took a couple stops for a bathroom breaks and snacks, rest stop for bathroom breaks actual restrooms were busted and it had lines of porta pottys and some sink thing where you had to pump the water with your foot so strange and gross.... never again haha
Got home around 3PM and got into my sweats, ate falafel and french fries and relaxing. Love the beach want more time there. Next time I'm taking a beach chair and umberella LOL
Happy New Year!! Hoping that 2012 brings about many new and better things, and this year is the best yet.
As for resolutions... not sure yet.
