Honey Moons, June 7
thursday
this day, we rented a car and drove out to St. Augustine to see my grandma, who couldn't make it to the wedding. i had called to confirm our reservation on Wednesday and to tell them where our hotel room was. Enterprise drove up in a Mercedes (they pick you up). nice. of course i asked if that was the car we got to take. haha. he drove us to the office, we filled out the paperwork and then went out to check out the car. our rep, Ryan (who looked just like Sean Astin), opened the driver's side door and immediately picked up something off of the floor of the car. a huge bottle of ephedrine. nice. he said that the guy who cleaned out the car must have found them and forgot to throw them away. ok. then i noticed a wrapper under the seat, which Ryan must have noticed at the same time because he snatched that up to. a condom wrapper. heh-heh. i think scott's statement was, "who ever had this car before must have had a good time."
so, the speed and empty rubber wrapper knicked, we were on our way. we stopped to get gas at a 7-11. scott got some water and an FM transmitter (because the car didn't have a CD player or tape deck). then he went into the glove compartment to put something in there and found another surprise...
a glove box full of lube.
that's right. he pulled out a near-empty bottle of k-y jelly. and it was near empty because the remainder of it was all over the glove box. and the car manual. and the maps. it looked like snot. scott closed the compartment and never opened it again.
but we had a good time at my grandma's. my uncle david and cousin stephanie were there, as well. i hadn't seen them since... i have no idea. we all went out to lunch at this place called "the reef," which was ok but not spectacular. then we went back to her house and stole someone's wireless internet so i could show them wedding pictures. then we sat around and shot the breeze for a while. around 5ish we left.
we debated on whether we should take the car back early and hitch a taxi back to the resort (they would already be closed by the time we got back) or if we should keep it for the night and take it back the next day when enterprise could drop us off. we decided to take it back early. we get to the place at 7pm, but the guys were still there. ryan came out to look at the car and scott mentioned that the mess in the glove box had already been there. ryan said, "mess?" then he looked. yeah, mess. after being thoroughly embarrassed, ryan took the paperwork inside for a few and then came back out. "i just zeroed your account out. we're going to give you the rental for free because of the mess in the glove box and the other stuff." ha! it was only $28, but still. it was very cool of him. then he took us back. it was a good day.
then we decided to go to the Disney Marketplace for dinner. we went to raglan road pub. i got a salad which was alright, but not fantastic. scott got this guiness stew that he totally raved about. i thought it was a little pricey for what we got, but my uncle paid for it with the gift he had given us today.
we shopped a little bit and then went home. sleep, glorious sleep.
