Mad Gab and Shout House

This weekend we headed down to San Diego to see Kevin's friends from high school. Dan is going to law school while staying at his Aunt and Uncle's house. Aunt and Uncle were spending time in Hawaii, so we, along with Colin and Ashley, headed down for a weekend away. The ironic thing was the house we were staying in looked like a Hawaiian condo. It had wicker furniture with red cushions covered in palm leaves. Every picture and every knick-knack was somehow related to Hawaii. Even the magazines were about Hawaii. There were Hawiian print comforters and sheets. Potholders and door mats had flip flops on them. There were even plumeria plants out by the pool. Ashley and I found it all quite strange.

On Friday, we got in late but headed up to meet Colin and Ashley in Oceanside on their way down from L.A. We had some appetizers and headed back to the house for games. The videos below are of us playing Mad Game. The point is to read the words on the card out loud in attempt to guess the common phrase. For example, "Went Hurl Hymn Pick Aims" is actually "Winter Olympic Games" and "Hike Up Hull Comb Egg Sicko" is actually "Acapulco, Mexico".

Danny was laughing so hard he was crying.

On Saturday we had a pretty leisurely day. The guys went out to play Disc/Frisbee Golf. Ashley and I slept in before heading to the store to buy breakfast, lunch, and dinner. After lunch we napped, but after dinner, we went out. We went to the Gas Lamp District, parked, and then got right back into the car: Colin forgot his walltet, i.e., his ID. The scond time we parked downtown, we headed over to the Shout House. The dueling pianos were fun to watch, and great to sing along with. We had a relaxing weekend with our friends.
