Vacation: Day Four

I would have to say that day four of our vacation has the most "small funny stories" of them all.  So, I will try and remember them all.  We got up around 8:30am and ate some breakfast.  We sat around the room for a bit and waited for the sunny to really start shining.  We all decided that today we would just hang around the hotel at the beach or the pool.  So we get the cooler packed with water, gatorade, and some coke.  We head down to the beach and rent some chairs.  Lesli and I laid out and talked while Kent and Jared played in the ocean and snorkled.  We watched people parasail and go jet skiing.  Being an active person, I really wanted to get out on a jet ski and just have fun or go parasailing...but Jon Kent disagreed...lol.  Maybe next year...  Anyway, around lunch time Kent and I went back up to the room and had some lunch.  On our way back down, we got on the elevator with a "boy" who was probably 15 or 16 years old.  He was the type of person that "tries to be funny" but really isn't.  Anyway, we start out on the 14th floor and by the 10th floor the elevator was packed.  So every floor from 10th to the 6th the "boy" would be like "sorry no room here...try again".  Well, it was funny the first time but by the 6th floor it was quite annoying.  Well, the doors close on the 6th floor and nothing happens.  We don't move.  WE ARE STUCK!!!!  The "funny boy" quickly turns to the purest shade of white and starts saying "try getting the doors open, try getting the doors open."  Well, we finally got the doors to open and he was gone quicker than a flash of lightening.  LOL!!!!!!  Once he got off the elevator started working again.  The rest of us happily rode to the 1st floor in peace.  The rest of the afternoon was just laying out and getting in and out of the ocean.  I got a great tan that day!  Around 4:30pm or so we went back to the room and got ready to go out for the night.  We went and ate at Captain Crabby's.  It was HORRIBLE to say the least!  The waitress spilt ranch dressing on Jared's plate then didn't get his salad order right.  She then gave Lesli spicy shrimp instead of plain and then when he brought Lesli the right shrimp she spilt the shrimp juice into Lesli's purse.  THEN when Kent went and paid for the bill for himself and me it was $40 and something but when she brought us the ticket back to sign it, it said $83!!!  I was like "WHAT!?!?!"  Well, then as we were leaving and practically in the parking lot the waitress runs after us and catches Lesli.  And asked if the service was bad or something because we left her a small tip.  Lesli told her yes the service was bad...the lady was SO RUDE.  She just threw up her hand and said "whatever!"  I was like we should go back in there and get the rest of that tip that we did give her!  Anyway, we then went and played putt-putt golf again but at a different place.  It took us like 2 1/2 hours to play the whole game.  It was so crowded there!  I didn't come in last that time.  Only 3rd!  We then went back to the hotel and on our way up to the room 3 guys got on the elevator and one of the guys was TOTALLY wasted.  The drunk guy's friend kept tapping him and making him hit the elevator door.  The drunk guy was like "yeah I've had a few...ok, ok...I'm drunk."  It was funny.  THEN everytime the elevator doors would open the drunk guy would get off and his buddies would have to pull him back on and tell him that it wasn't his floor.  By the time we got to our floor we were all laughing.  When we got back to the room we all played PASSWORD.  Proudly...Kent and I won.  We were proud.  We then went and started packing to head home the next day.  We called it a night around 1:00am.
