Busy weekend

This weekend when by quick and it was a blur. Friday after work I decided to go straight to Santa Cruz where b-day celebrants
Rok star and Tina-maan decided to rent a house for the weekend to celebrate their respective b-days. I decided to take Hwy 1 as hwy 101 was sooo backed up from where I was coming from. It wasn't a bad drive, until I got behind a caravan of cars where the lead car refused to go over 30 mph even though the speed limit was 55 mph. I was getting frustrated as this went on for about 5 miles. I was high beaming to get the person in front of me to high beam the car in front and so on so that the car in the lead would either pick up speed or pull into the slower right lane when it shows up (hwy 1 is a 1 lane hwy, 1 per each direction)
When the goober finally pulls over, everyone else that was in front and back of me decided to pull over too and stop. It turns out that they were all together. Man, I was sure glad they did that 'cause I was getting real pissed off. Anyways I finally arrived at the house at a little past 9 pm. Just in time to catch dinner with Oj, Tin, Tina, Edward, Ed, Isaac, and Malaya.

The house was huge, it was a 5 bedroom house with a fairly decent size backyard and a hot tub. As I was finishing dinner, the Laxa's arrived and we just pretty much hanged around and talked (while drinking some spirited drinks) the night away. At about midnite, Manok, Herna and Scot finally arrive.

The next day, we all decided to go to the boardwalk and play at the beach. Ed buried Isaac in the sand up to his chest. Andres just kept standing by the shoreline waiting for the tide to come in, letting the water reach to him and then run back.
Some of us just lounged on the blanket that we set up on the beach. Afterwards, we just walked around the park, eating funnel cakes and cotton candy. Then some of us decided to ride the roller coaster, and the log ride. Play some of the games trying to see if we can win stuffed animal prizes. After a day of fun, we decided to go back to the house where we found OJ's parents have arrived already with a LOT of food and then Tin arriving saying she needed help with the cake. It turned out to be a full sheet and it weighed about 40 something lbs. THAT was pretty heavy for a cake.

As the night progressed on, some more Likha peeps arrive and we just ate, dranked, smoked and talked the night away, in fact all the way to the wee hours of the morning. (I'm still tired as I was writing this)

Sunday, we had our first meeting back after the big show. We also started our dance and music workshops. It was nice to see that we have a lot of new people that are partaking in the workshops. We even have a couple of bayanihan alums participating.

Afterwards some of us decided to go to Fenton's and grab a bite to eat. Then we all went our merry way home.
Needless to say, I'm tired and will call it a night soon.
