Vacation

Went on a short vacation with summer friend. I'll try to give you the short version.
  • Summer friend likes to ignore the GPS
  • The GPS is sensitive and if you ignore him too many times he will fuck you and send you to the ghetto
  • Kids are fucking annoying and should be left home
  • The Holiday Inn sucks
    • They allow pets - ie barking dogs at midnight
    • They don't have enough parking spots to accomodate their guests so you may have to park at the PC Richard next door
    • The breakfast wraps made my kid sick
    • If you lie and say you tripped on the curb while crossing from PC Richard to Holiday Inn, they really don't give a shit
    • They make you sign out towels
    • Yes, I'm serious.
    • If one of your kids unknowingly puts the "do not disturb" sign on the door knob you will not receive maid service that day
    • Okay, that one's on us - but it added to the misery.
    • The pull-out couch had a blanket from 1957 that appeared to have never been washed
    • The carpet...5th avenue after the Puerto Rican Day parade is cleaner.
  • There is nothing at Pier 1 that I would not buy
  • I like Pina Coladas, a lot.
  • Cooper's Beach is supposed to be one of the most beautiful beaches in the US. It's nice...but, just nice. Not special. They lie.
    • The highlight of Cooper's Beach was a 90 year old man with a bathing suit sagging low enough for his crack to show. I took a pic.
    • The ugly - girls ranging in age from 5-8 ran, topless, over our towels multiple times until summer friend spoke to the asshole mother.
  • Montauk is cool
    • In hindsight, we should have stayed here. There is a lot to do.
    • We shopped.
    • We took the kids in paddle boats. I saw a swan, a muskrat and multiple geese/ducks.
    • Kids should not stear paddle boats. Ever.
    • We ate at cute places. I still like pina coladas, a lot.
    • We went to Ditch Plains (a cool beach with sea cliffs) and I took lots of pics
    • I bought my man a hat
    • We had so much fun here we are planning to come back next year, exclusively, yay!
  • Last day
    • We surprised the kids with a trip to Adventureland on the way home.
The End.
