We left Bar Harbor early this morning. I was very emotional, leaving my Mom was not easy. She and I both acted like everything was okay until it really became time for Joe and I to leave. It was a lot of tears. I’d never been this far away from her for such an extended period of time. I am a Mama’s Girl.
The drive was actually really fun. We just danced and sang the entire time then all of a sudden- we were in Boston! First stop was my good friend Whitney’s apartment to unload, shower, and relax. Eventually Whit, Joe and I went to Newbury area and got a few drinks, then wandered over to Sylvi’s workplace, The Summer Shack. We ate a lot of seafood and drank a lot of beers.
After Sylvi got off work we all headed to her favorite bar, Goody Glovers. Drank more. I think we all see where this is going. We woke up the next morning, feeling it. Whitney came over looking oh so fresh faced (how she does it, I don’t know) We walked over to The Living Room and met up with Krystal! Fun Fact: Krystal, Whitney, Sylvi and I all met online when we were 13 – 15 years old. We are lucky if there are more then 2 of us together once a year! The story of that will come soon. It’s fun. So, my head started to feel better after I drank some “Super Mimosas” – orange vodka, OJ, strawberry puree & champagne. They were exactly what we needed.
Later, we found ourselves at the North End Pool. This place is perfect for a hot summer day in the city. It’s on the water edge, clean, and has fun snacks like peanut butter & fluff for sale. I wish I could find a place like this in Brooklyn! It was the 4th of July, so I was itching for some fireworks.. we ended up finding ourselves at a rooftop party, where two sets of fireworks were in eyeshot. At this point, Joe and I were exhausted. We got on a bus the next morning at 6am and were dropped at Penn Station by 11. It felt so good to be home.
