On my way back to Boston now from a wonderful weekend with my best friend, Parvati in Conneticut...and such. I went down Friday night, and got there about 10, so just in time to get dinner (Indian families operate on a different time schedule). We then watched a movie (This Means War, it was meh, not great) and went to bed.
We got up bright and early for an adventure to Six Flags, New Jersey. It was a full car: Parvati, her two brothers, boy friend, one of her brother's friends, and myself (we stopped in New York to get the brother's friend). Pretty much ran on time, too! We got to the park just about noon.
Instead of going to the regular theme park we decided to go to the water park, Hurricane Harbor. To be honest, there was nothing special about the rides. But we still had a lot of fun in the lazy river and wave pool. Doubly ironic, Parvati commented on how people in the lazy river need to be lazier, then when we got in we played games and got whistled at by the lifeguards. See, Matt (Parvati's boy friend) brought this little red ball with him and he starred throwing it around. We quickly turned it into a game kind of like basketball. It was fun. Later in the wave pool we continued our shenanigans by playing pass. After doing this for a little while we attracted the attention of some other random people at the park an pretty soon there was a whole group playing. There was even this little girl (maybe 3?) who joined. #omgSOcute! Some times we gave direct long passes, other times it was thrown high in the air, and others it was skipped off the waves. That ball could really fly! Matt & I managed too get kinda sunburned (#WhitePeopleProblems), but it was still really fun. On the way back we got pizza in New Rochelle for dinner (shout out to the Player's!), and then proceeded to head back to CT. we intended to have a bonfire & s'mores, but we all passed out pretty much as soon as we for back. Spending all day in cars, water, and the sun is tiring!
This morning we lazed around a bit more. After breakfast (yummy crepes) we went mini golfing. Today it was just Parv, Matt, and Parv's younger brother. I did better than I expected, even getting a couple hole-in-ones but still didn't quite make par...oh well. Matt was definitely the best. It's all just fun and games.
All on all it's been a fun weekend. Its always good to spend a weekend away with your best friend. Too bad weekends are so short though.
So now I get to sit on a bus for a couple more hours until I get home. Not to worry though, Parvati packed me grapes, mango, and a croissant. Yummy yummy :)
