Days 3 and 4 in Antigua







Well I'm starting to not remember everything quite as clear from last week...sooo I'll try and remember the exciting parts!








Monday day 3, actually I have NO clue what we did during the day, it was either hanging out at the beach or hanging out at the pool. So we did one of those. Then they had a scavenger hunt for returning guests. We thought it would be like the one last year where you have to find stuff and take pics of it on your digital camera. But no, we just had to run around the resort and find balloons, that had point amounts int them, and bring them back where they would pop them and add up the points to determine the winner. There is this big obnoxious guy there, who is telling us all that we are living on his land for free, because he is an Indian and he was here first, then he starts bringing up politics and other things, so I just decided to walk away from him. He's being a jackass, and you can tell everyone is annoyed...Its time to start...Art and I split up and go running once they say go. I find one right away and then go into the pub where I find three more balloons, I don't want to drop them so I stick them all in my shirt. It made everyone I passed by laugh alot, which is always good. We searched for another like 30 mins, art found 5, but I didn't find any other balloons after my initial four.




I go back and they start counting my balloons, and I'm holding my last one and the big indian man comes and takes it, I laugh like ha ha you are so funny. Then I'm like okay give it back, he says nope, it says where ever I find one and this is where I found it. All the employees are like give it back to her. We go back and forth for probably like 3-4 mins of him being a jerk. I tell him to give it back or I'm going to kick him somewhere, he says go ahead, then I'll stick my wife on you and she's 6 ft. I tell him I don't care how tall she is, cause I'll just sit on her. Then he's like it doesn't matter you're going to get second place just like at name that tune last night. Then he's like and second place is way worse than last.... REALLY ?? How do you figure, for second place I would get $100 gift certificate and he'd get nothing for last. Anyways, then the couple who won first place comes in, and they had a CRAP load of balloons.... They won a couples massage, but hey I'm still okay with the gift certificate. The big indian dude is still going on and on and on, and we just walk away. I now HATE this man. (I'm telling you, because he's in future posts)




That night they had Caribbean night at the beach with a big buffet out on the sand. We went to that and ate ALOT of food. :) After dinner we went to a fire dancing show. The guy was really good, and then he did limbo, and he went under the limbo bar at about 7 inches. It was INSANE!! I've never seen someone be able to bend like that before.








Tuesday Day 4. Again I'm not sure what we did during the day, beach and pool and lotsa drinks I'm assuming.... For dinner we headed to Kimonos, its Teppenyaki (sp??) style where they make it on the big grill thing right in front of you. We met The Dr's there ( Ryan and Ashley) and Glenn and Brittany who were getting married at the resort on Thursday. We chatted with them about all the sandals and all the cool things you can have your butlers do. They were the first people we had talked to who also had butler service. Then we found out that Glenn and Brittany were staying in the villas which I wanted to see, and that the Drs were staying in the penthouse which we wanted to see as well. Then come to find out they all wanted to see our Rondoval. So after dinner and dessert we went around and toured the rooms. Glenn and Brittanys villa was very nice, has a pool and private hot tub, which was sweet! And the Dr's had a room quite similar only they had an AMAZING view of the ocean ... So its like you pick a view, or a pool. I like pool, so I'm glad with our room still.






After this its time to head to the Lovers Game. This is a game that we all signed up for and then they'd pick 6 couples to play. Think the newlywed game. Embarrassing and hilarious. So we're sitting there talking to the other 2 couples, when all of a sudden I hear room 314...ohhhhh lordy...thats our room. Because of course, I mean OF COURSE, out of the 50 couples who signed up we'd be one of the 6 that is chosen. I'm instantly like, ohhhh no I think I'm going to throw up. We'd just met these nice couples, and had about 10 other couples of friends in the audience. Once we get up, all our friends start laughing hysterically and cheering. This is NOT good!!! So the way it works is the guys stay out and get asked q's first, while the women go into the bar so we can't hear. I won't tell you the answers or all of the questions...my parents read this for goodness sakes. So I may put a few risque ones in, but not all. :) so we are finally allowed to go back out, and its time for us to answer the same questions, whoever matches their lovers answers gets a point, who ever gets the most points wins.... easy enough right?? Wrong...






These are the questions they asked the guys, and we have to answer what we THINK they answered!



Q1) Whats your wifes bra size....okay I'm not telling everyone my bra size, but we were the only couple to get this WRONG!!! So now I'm like ohhhh no, what have we gotten ourselves into??



Q2) What item of clothing do you HATE when your lover wears... I have no clue, then Brittany mouths high heels..I'm like what, and she mouths it again, one of the other girls sees and goes CHEATER! The girl who's turn it is says high heels, and is right, so I assume its her answer too. But alas I say PJ's or sweats, and my answer was high heels...ughhh, another one wrong.



Q3) If you could get rid of one person in your wifes family who would it be. Now for obvious reasons, I'm not putting that up here, but alas...guess what...we got it WRONG!!! So we're 0 for 3 now...And we're the only ones who've been married over like 1 week. This is getting embarrassing.



Q4) Whats something you've been begging your lover for that they refuse to do. I'm thinking, hmmm well we've always been pretty clear on the things not happening, so I'm going to say nothing. So of course when its my turn I say, I'm awesome...nothing. And everyone is dying laughing. I get it right, and HOORAY we finally have one point. I can't tell you what the other couples said, but let me just say I was laughing so hard, I almost peed my pants. Play this game if you ever go to Sandals...






Now its reverse time. Ohhh wait, let me also say Art and I had been practicing questions all day just in case we get called, of course they don't ask any q's we had practiced. But our butler did tell us that they do a multiple choice one most times...So we agree we should just pick a letter no matter what and stick to it. I ask Art, but what if its humiliating, he says No, stick to the plan, we'll get over it, and it'll help us win... (you'll need to know that multiple choice part for later)






Okay so its guys turn to go into the bar, and girls turn to answer q's.



Q1) What is the weirdest gift he's ever given you. I answer nothing, we save for vaca's usually, and when he does buy gifts, they're pretty good.



Q2) If you could change one thing physically about your man, what would it be. I say his insanely large neck, because its impossible to buy dress shirts for.



Q3) what is something he does that drives you CRAZY and you wish he'd stop. Right after the host says this I'm like ohhh pick me pick me, I don't need to think about it. He comes over and I say, he's picky, he picks at everything, he's a pickypooh...thats what I call him



Q4) If you had to rate your lover which of the following MULTIPLE choice answers would you rate him as.



a- he's long and boring like to flight to antigua....yaaawwwnnn are we there yet, can I get some peanuts..



b- he's like the energizer bunny, he keeps going and going and going



c- BAM...he's wham bam thank you maam.






Okay sooooo....we'd already decided to go with A regardless of the answer. So as soon as he asks the question, I'm like dying, I drop my head and want to run away...but alas I stick to the plan and say A...the Crowd is like....huuuuuu, you know the noise of shock...no laughter here, the host is like man, you are MEAN!






So the guys come out to answer



Q1) Art says nothing...hoorrayyyyy a point, that makes two!



Q2) he says his nose...we get it wrong. Shocker, since we're totally LOSING! Two of the girls had answered stomach, and the guy from couple 6 was NOT happy when he heard this. If was quite funny to the rest of us!



Q3) Art is like, ohhhh I know this one, and he goes I'm a pickypooh...the crowd is dying laughing that he says the exact same thing, and the host is like, mannn what the hell is that. He explains.



Q4) Arts reaction is about the same as mine, head goes down in shame, and he answers a, and the crowd again is like totally shocked....We're sooo humiliated, and the new couples we've met are like, oh my gosh!!!






Anywho, to say the least we totally lost, then I had to go tell everyone about the multiple choice question, because they were all thinking, whats going on...so it was a hilarious night, even though we didn't win. So thats the end of day 3 and 4. The couples game was much more funny, but like I said, for OBVIOUS reasons, I'm not putting the answers from the other couples up here, because I think some people would not appreciate it, and I'm polite what can I say!
