2009.01.15 Thursday

We arrived at the airport at approximately 6:40AM. Jean and I checked our bags in and walked into the terminal. We waited for everyone else to arrive and of course they come right as we are boarding. Yes... a bunch of laggers in our group. We're all sitting in rows 12 & 13 and most of us pass out and try to sleep while the Lee's watch a movie and keep disrupting my sleep by asking my for tech support.

Upon taking the short 2 hour flight, we arrive in Utah and collect our bags. Waiting a long time to rent our car (yes, it's due to Sundance going on this weekend) we finally get to rent a Ford Expedition EL. I am elected the driver (mostly cuz I'm the most responsible) and head out on the 80E towards our condo.

Our first stop is McDonalds to grab some brunch. Afterwards, we head to Wells Fargo and get some cash. Then we head over to the state run Liquor Store. Now, this store is quite interesting. In Utah, you can only buy hard alcohol at state run stores. You can't buy it anywhere else. Knowing this, we stock up on about $300 worth of alcohol for the weekend :) Yes, we're a bunch of drunkies. We haven't hit the slopes yet, haven't unpacked, haven't bought real food, yet one of our main concerns was to find where we could buy alcohol and ATTACK! heh heh.

Finally, we head to the condo and drop off all of our gear. After dropping it off, we (minus Jess) head to Park City to go ski/boarding. We finally get to the mountain at about 2:30pm and are on the slopes at 3pm. After getting on the slopes, we discover that Jean and Akiko are too inebriated to be able to actually board. Akiko was so naseus that she had to get ski mobiled down the mountain. In the meantime, Chris, Molly and myself ditch the two knuckleheads and have our own fun.

Afterwards, we meet up at about 530 or so and grab a few beers. We discuss our dinner plans and decide to buy groceries so we can cook dinner. We stop by Albertons and shop our hearts out. At least this time, we were buying actual food and we only spent about $200. We head home and start cooking pasta, salad, garlic bread, and random other goodies.

After eating, we clean up and play catch phrase.

Jean's two friends Connie & Marta come to hang out with us

We hit up main street and bar hop.

Come back and eat quesidillas adn then pass out to watching a movie.
