Weekend Wonderment


I hope you do something out of the ordinary this weekend.  
What is that one wacky thing you've always wanted to do?
Make it an adventure and bring someone along for the ride.

My husband and I are going to a small town outside Buenos Aires.  We have no hotel and we are unsure if we'll be able to find one.  We weren't aware of the Auto Race that will be held there this weekend.  All the hotels are booked.  So here we go, a little scared and nervous.  Wish us luck!

Much love,
Rachael

Good Luck, Rachael!

However, I have a feeling you and your husband will have a fun, little adventure and I can't wait to hear about it and maybe see some pictures too! :)

I'll be at the Yankee game with my unexpected love this weekend while they are in town playing the Angels...so, not too out of the ordinary, but fun! :)

Buenos Aires is one of the places I most want to visit--have a wonderful time and share pics and stories!

That sounds like an amazing weekend adventure. Going to a city where you don't have definite plans. Atleast you're with your husband. I wish I got the opportunity to travel to so many places. It must be fabulous.

I can't think of a wacky thing I've always wanted to do at the moment. =/ The only thing I've been wanting to do is to go to the park and have a picnic or go bike riding. Kind of boring I know but I haven't done anything like that since forever.

My husband and I went to Italy back in 2002. We visited Rome, Florence, Vernazza, Venice and back to Rome within a week's time. No schedule and no reservations in any of the cities. It was scary, but turned out to be the best trip we've ever had! I hope you have a fantastic time on your trip :)

Belen said...

I DO want to do something out of the ordinary this weekend! I so do! But I work alllll weekend. I wish the "something out of ordinary" could involve quitting my job. -___-

I am looking forward to playing Twister in an elevator soon. I've just recently found a friend who is as crazy as me and is willing to try it. Now we just have to find an elevator and someone to spin for us.
