What an exhaustingly fun weekend. My friends and I went up to Great Gorge for my friend's (soon to be annual) Birthday party weekend and it was epic!
I started the weekend early. Friday, I first went to lunch with some old friends I haven't seen in the longest. After, made my way to Great Gorge area to sneak in some mountain biking in before check in to the resort. Got some time in before I found out my friends came earlier than expected. lol.
Last time we went there, we made a plan and I executed it with the utmost success. I'll leave it at that. lol. We shuttled our stuff up to the condo, did some grocery shopping for the weekend, ate dinner and went down to the resort to play!
Played indoor basketball for a couple hours, which is always fun. I really miss playing basketball on a weekly basis. Makes me think if I should really take this triathlon thing too seriously by avoiding basketball to prevent injury. Basketball is after all a really good exercise. I put my heart rate monitor on and it was consistently above 120bpm, which is good, and I'm sure it peaked higher during sprinting around.
After, took a dip in the pool and took some hilarious underwater photos and videos. Yes videos too! lol. I'll try and get some of them posted here, since they are all on facebook at the moment. Then ate dinner and got hustled at Texas Hold'em by someone who "didn't know how to play." You girls are a tricky breed.
Saturday, just repeat! lol. More basketball, more swimming. Finally we able to dive off the cliff in Great Gorge. lol. Was fun! Was able to get a couple friends to do it too. hahaha. Good times. Then at night, people were getting there drink on and some things happened that I missed out on since I was picking up dinner. booOooo. Then played some Mah Jong.
Sunday, repeat once more, but a little shorter since people wanted to go home before holiday traffic begun. Then went to the driving range for a quick bucket at the driving range then to my friend's house for her father's birthday.
Then yesterday, met up with my old college buddy who was here from Las Vegas. We went to NYC for some Bon Chon Chicken, Red Velvet Cake, and Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory. Mmmmm. So good, so fattening. Good company and good food. Then went to dinner at Jersey City for dinner and dropped my friend off until the next time I see him (nest year most likely. lol. )
I'll try to rob some of the pictures and post them later. As for now, its sunny and in the 80's! That means me go play outside!
