Well Plonker decided he wanted some alcohols, so we went to the only bar within stumbling distance of the hotel. We drank more then we have in months… combined. So like 4 drinks! I think I recycled that from twitter. Live with it.
I stole my laptop from work for this trip, which I actually bought myself… on last years trip. So… I stole my own laptop to bring on this trip. Yay me!
I know the title talks about it being Vacation Day 1. And it is. Though it wasn’t that interesting.. that I remember. Plonker is supposed to be writing something, I’m guessing he’s passed out right about now.
We had a few hiccups in the morning, some rain in the middle, but overall the first 60 mile leg wasn’t too bad.
Day 1: Called for 0 Rain. Rained about 23 miles in. Not long though, fortunately. Rest of the day was fairly good, no issues. Stopped at a local bar, drank and talked up the waitress. She seemed to liven up after a little bit, at which point… we left? We’re… we’re not good with women.
Day 2: Started earlier than Day 1, but the mileage ended up being further than anticipated. Arrived in Cleveland, and went to the bar for food an alcohols. It was busy but we found a seat, though the waitress didn’t seem too pleased with having customers and we felt a little rushed out.. I mean Plonker had his plate taken before he finished his sandwich. I didn’t even get dessert. We went to a second place (they didn’t HAVE dessert….:() and got some alcohols. That waitress was great and we had some alcohol related conversation happening. We were going to order more, however the manager said to close out tabs and send the waitresses home. Yeah, we COULD have transferred to the bar, but we liked our waitress. She seemed fun. What are the chances of finding another one like that in short succession? Experience tells me not very good. We did ask her for recommendations for dessert places but they were all close at this time of night. We get Snickers Ice Cream Bars in the hotel.
Tomorrow is Day 3 of the bike ride, getting us into Sandusky. Again, its supposed to storm all day.
