We stayed at this AH-mazing hotel called the Surfsand. It had SO many ammenities it was CRAZY. It had Tempurpedic mattresses, a flat-screen TV, a complimentary bucket with s'mores fixings, a heated pool, a sauna, complimentary board games and DVDs that you could rent from the front desk, complimentary ice cream cones on Saturdays, a HUGE bowl of saltwater taffy free for the taking, a jar of chocolate chip cookies sitting on the front desk with a bucket of milk next to it, a view of Haystack Rock:
a jacuzzi tub, a walk-in shower, and a TV in the BATHROOM! (Ring any bells, Maki?) It was the coolest hotel EVER!!!

The next day, it was HAILING sideways. It would hit you on the back of the legs and it HURT. Our pants were literally DRIPPING. The next day it was actually sunny!
We got a kite on Sunday and flew it on Sunday and Monday.
(is that not the coolest kite you've ever seen?)
It was great. We also went to the "Marine Garden" and saw starfish, and mussels, and sea sponges and all this other cool stuff. Our quest was to find a whole sand dollar, but no success. Too bad. We went to this awesome candy store with these HUGE barrels of saltwater taffy. There was watermelon, orange, chocolate, peanut butter and jelly, blue raspberry, even butter (but...EW!) I got this awesome hat and shirt. On the way home, we had lunch at Nike! My mom's good friend works for Nike in the Mia Hamm building, so we had lunch there. The cafeteria was AWESOME! It had burgers, soup, salad, stir-fry, all sorts of drinks, even a frozen yogurt machine! We also got to go to the Nike employee store, where everything is half-price what it would be at a regular Nike Store. I got these AH-mazing shoes:
We also saw this funny sign.
