Ouch

When this door in our condo is open like this and you go running up the stairs while not looking ahead you crack your face on the door. That is exactly what happened to me on Saturday, not good times. I've still got a nice cut and healing scab on the bridge of my nose, luckily I didn't need stitches and there wasn't much bruising either.

Anyway, I'm lucky that I didn't have this nice little gash when we were in the Bahamas a couple of weeks ago, that would have sucked. Mandy and Dan's wedding was absolutely awesome, here is a quick recap.

Wednesday
We left on Wednesday AM, arrived at the hotel by noon. Just as I was about to lay down for a nap Tracy calls me and tells me that I have to come down and go on some water slides with Dan and his niece and nephew, I can sleep when I'm dead. I go down, take one trip down the Geronimo (that slide that goes straight down) and then the skies open up. Mandy and Dan's Wednesday night clambake gets moved inside but it's open bar and we hijacked the piano guys microphone and created our own karaoke. We all have too much too drink, go to the club, continue with shots of patron and then Dan teaches me how to play craps at 1AM and I end up winning $100. Not a bad first night.

Thursday
It was overcast most of the day but the sun came out for a bit. Tracy and I took a trip down the not so lazy river, I say that because it is a lazy river in some parts but crazy rapids and waves at other parts. Thursday night we had the rehearsal at the church and then a ridiculous rehearsal dinner at this great Italian restaurant right on the water. The clambake was good and the surf and turf at the wedding was great but this was my favorite meal of the trip, I put on an eating display. There was a little bit of late night gambling but most of us were wiped from the night before.

Friday
The big day. I spent most of the day with the groom and the best man laying by the "adult" pool and drinking $15 drinks, good times. It actually was. There is this one pool at Atlantis that is the place to be, there are no kids allowed, there is a DJ playing music, all of the lounge chairs are like beds and there are blackjack tables pool side. The rest of the day was a whirlwind, they got married there was a fire dancer at the cocktail hour who was rubbing fiery sticks on everyone without burning them. Tracy's speech at dinner was perfect and the wedding group of 80 people drank 23 bottles of grey goose and many shots of Ouzo.

Saturday
A full day of gorgeous weather by the pool, highlighted by me getting tossed of my raft in the rapids of the lazy river, getting stuck under the person behind me, getting tossed down the remainder of the rapids without a raft and slamming my knee in the process. We had more $15 drinks by the pool, I went down some sick water slides with Dan, I got sunburned pretty good and it was for the most part a great day. That night we went out to dinner with a big group and got to see the Junkanoo.

Sunday we headed home completely wiped out. I didn't take many good pictures so I don't have anything to post and lastly congratulations to Mandy and Dan, it was a fantastic trip.

That turned into a bit of a marathon post, I'll have more this week including our trip home for Turkey day.
