North Shore Bliss

I can currently hear the crazy crashing of the waves on Lake Superior RIGHT outside the window I'm sitting by. The water is super loud right now, but I love it. Wave noises are great.

I've had a great time on this vacation. We go home tomorrow, and I figure that since everyone else is sitting around watching TV right now that it's o.k. for me to blog real quick. I'm currently at Bluefin Bay Resort, and I'm in Jake's aunt and uncle's room. They have six kids who are all here, along with their oldest son's girlfriend and her daughter. Their family totals ten. Then Jake's sister, Genna, is here 'cause they invited her to come with one of their kids, and then there is Jake and I. That's 13 of us that are all here right now. The three or four younger girls are all sleeping right now, the rest of us are sitting in the living room/ dining room watching "Deadliest Catch."

Jake and I decided we didn't want to be complete moochers and take advantage of his aunt and uncle, so we got our own little room. When I say "little" I mean LITTLE. It's just a bed and a bathroom basically. We've spent most of our time at his aunt and uncles four bedroom place. We don't have a microwave or a fridge, so all our food is here. Thus the biggest attraction of hangin' out with all these crazy people. Haha. They are crazy, but I love it.

Today was my favorite day so far, though. I spent most of the day in our room while Jake was on a fishing trip (which I am VERY glad I didn't go on. The people who went said it was windy on the boat and that they got sea sick. ew), I read a book and I took a nap. Then when I woke up I went for a swim with almost everyone on the trip. Haha. It was glorious. A wonderful vacation day.

Yesterday Jake, Justin (his cousin), Mai (Justin's girlfriend, and my friend =] ) and I went on a 20 mile bike ride. We were all hurtin' today. But it was really fun.

All in all, this vacation has simply been wonderful. I haven't taken a lot of pictures, but I HAVE taken some, so when I finally get back to MY computer (Jake's laptop doesn't have the ability to upload my pictures) I will have to give you a photo update.

  3. 1. I sincerely wish you could have been there with us. Maybe next year?
    2. Yeah...it was better that way.
    3. We split the room so I paid half.

    And no, it wasn't my first time, but it basically was because I barely remember anything about the last time except that I had my hemotoma and everything hurt it...including/especially swimming. =P
