As you might have gathered from the previous post … I was at the beach this past weekend.

The Boyfriend and I made a fairly impromptu trip down to Fernandina Beach/Amelia Island to see Dr. Phibes and Co. It was a pretty awesome weekend.

Something I Learned on the Drive:
– Follow your instinct and don’t get out of the car to beat up the old man with his grandson because he’s a thoughtless asshole and left his car at the pump when he went inside even though he was well aware that you were waiting behind him to get gas at that pump and that the gas station was super busy.

Some Things That We Did:
– I went to the beach Friday morning and watched the sunrise.
– We all went to an after hours event at the Jacksonville Zoo. It eventually rained us out.
– Saturday we kicked around Centre Street for lunch and shopping.
– We went walking on the beach and then had a fancy steak dinner.
– Sunday included wings for lunch and Mission Impossible: Fallout (which is most excellent).
– We drank way too many Gin & Tonics.

There is an Irish store on the island called Celtic Charm and I like to go in there every time I am down that way. I was looking for a new Guinness hat this year, but ended up with a Ireland/Harp Rugby Jersey. Not really sure why I bought it considering I am not a huge sports fan and don’t know a lot about rugby. I think it’s cool though, and hopefully I won’t look too dumb in it if I wear it out and about.
