Our Most Eventful Day

Day: 118 Starting off in Washington D.C.. the five of us set out on a whirlwind visit to the nations capital before 1pm when Ryan had to get back to the airport to return to his normal life. We saw the Korean War Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument, WWII Memorial, Vietnam War memorial, [...]

The Heart of the Nation

Day: 117 Waking up as the sun shone in through the open flaps of my tent, my day started uneventfully with the practiced breaking down of my tent and sleeping bag even before the others had woken up. They all started to stir a few minutes after that and we soon had Skittles(our car) and [...]

Driving and Camping

Day: 116 Piled into our cars minutes after our eleven o’clock check out, we didn’t know where we were going to sleep tonight but we knew it’d be to the north; we also knew we wanted to take a drive through the Outer Banks in North Carolina. We drove and drove through the eastern coast [...]

One Beach to Another

Day: 115 We woke up with the goal to get out of Daytona (since we only rented the house for four days) and get back on the road again and try to make it all the way to Myrtle Beach (another supposed eastern party spot; these guys are going to kill me!) in South Carolina. [...]

Mom Gets Angry

Day: 114 So I received a very formal e-mail from my mother today telling me that to her it looks like all I have been up to is drinking and partying. She wanted me to get back on the ball with my picture taking and explained to me that no one in the world wants [...]

Day: 113 The problem with a place like Daytona Beach is that if you partake in it’s nightlife it runs you into one of two choices. Either you can get up early and try to make the most of your day being tired the whole time, or you can sleep in (until roughly 2 or [...]

Am I a Hoodlum?

Day: 112 Am I a Hoodlum? I woke up wondering this morning, I wasn’t so sure anymore. The thought crossed my mind when I was standing on the curb last night with the police and Matt asked one of the officers; “Do you truly think we are a menace to society?”. The officer responded “No.” [...]

Miranda Rights

Day: 111 After another badass Cuban lunch we loaded our car, said our goodbyes to Aaron’s grandparents, and filled into Skittles. We were headed to Daytona Beach, Florida, where I had found a three bedroom house with a spa to rent for four nights for less than $200 a night; and since we had one [...]

Relax In Florida

Day: 110 We did absoultely nothing all day, except sleep, play on the internet, and eat Aaron‘s grandmothers Cuban cooking. At night Aarons cousin, Becky, and her friend Jayme took us out for a local night on the town in Lakeland , Florida. After a bunch of drinks we ended up a a little pub [...]

Flat Tires and Morning Afters

Day:109 Tap, tap, tap. “Housekeeping?” “Nooo…” We all mumble in unison, or at least as close as we could get to unity after barely four hours of sleep and the mass quantity of drinks we took in the night before. Shit. I realize after a few minutes that I am wide awake and won’t be [...]
