Florida with Graham
Three things stand out in my mind when I think of
the trip I made to Florida when I was 18; crashing my friend’s dad car,
meeting American girls and eating peanuts in the Bahamas.
My best friends’ parents had moved to Florida. His dad lent us his car
to visit Key West and we crashed it on the first day! It wasn’t our
fault. Someone drove into the back of us. That didn’t stop his dad from
hitting the roof, though!
Our British accents helped us meet a couple of cute American girls at a
disco one night. We had a lot of fun hanging out with them for a few
days and we wrote letters for a while when we got back to the UK.
Eventually, we dropped out of touch. I suppose the distance was too
great.
Towards the end of the 3-week trip we were running out of money, despite
the fact that we’d been sleeping and eating at his parents place for
most of the time. Nevertheless, how could we pass on the opportunity to
go on a 3-day boat trip to the Bahamas?
We had enough money for the boat ticket, but there was hardly any left
after that. We had enough money for one Kentucky Fried Chicken meal when
we got to the Island, and we survived on eating peanuts, crisps and
olives that were left on the bars of hotel swimming pools. It was easy
to sneak into the pool area and sit at the bar eating the snacks.
Sometimes, we even got a free beer!
