I Made It!!!

I made it to the keys all safe and sound!! Dad and Bear survived the long car trip too. We got in on Saturday around 5:00 pm and unloaded the car. Here is what the back of the car looked like...
Once we got in, we did some rearranging but since we were so tired, we decided to go get some food. We tried to go to Dad's favorite pizza place called Upper Crust, but it was closed due to the holiday. :( We ended up in this strange...i mean strangeee, Mexican/seafood place. The fact that they had authentic Mexican and seafood, is a little weird in itself. It is called Lenchos and I had never eaten there before. Besides the atmosphere being a little sketchy, and our waitress being clueless, the food was actually pretty good. I got a combination platter that came with a chicken quesadilla, nachos, and an enchilada. Dad got barbque shrimp wrapped in bacon....another weird combination, but he said it was good! Here are a couple of pictures of what my room looked like yesterday after we unloaded the car...
Today, Dad and I got lunch at Wendys and shockingly the dollar menu is not the "dollar" menu here. My crispy chicken sandwhich was $1, but my jr. cheeseburger was $1.69! And the value fries were $1.30! What is the deal with that? Dad and I also went to the grocery store and stocked me up on groceries! I'm all good to go now. Here is what my room looks like now with a little more unpacking completed....
And Bear is adjusting well too! He slept in the bed with me all night, and then Dad said when he woke up to pee around 7, Bear got in the bed with him until around 10. I think he likes his new beach bum life style :)
Its about 9:00 now, and I better start getting ready for bed because my FIRST DAY OF WORK is tomorrow!!!! I work 9-5 and I'm so so excited but a little nervous too. I wonder what I will do all day? They told me I would get all my DRC clothes, like my staff T-shirt, wet suite, foul weather gear, booties, sweatshirt, etc. That will be really fun and exciting, but I hope I can keep that at work, because my room is about maxed out! Well, I guess I will let you all know how my day at work goes sometime tomorrow. Have a wonderful night :)
