Fresh from 5 hours sleep after a 21 hour day, some things from yesturday.
We had a 5 hr. C.E.U. class @ the Orange County Convention Center yesturday morning(Rules & Law/A.D.A./Ethics).
We then decided we would go to Destination Daytona first,for lunch,beer, and to see the Thunderbird, vendors, bands, and snapper.
What a disappointment ol' Bruces place is (after the first couple times).
The B.B.Q. place is great, pulled anything, with side and an import for $11.00.
The one band was ok, but only one.
The Thunderbird was mundane, totally lacks charisma/personality. Would have to put it with the metric V-twins, Shiny, pretty when new, but who do you know that actually ogles one? When I asked my buddy,"What ya think?", He could only shrug his shoulders and politly say "ya".
Everything else was bland at best, so we headed for Main st.(ya, I know), but the night life here is always the best mix of MANY bands, bars, vendors, bikes, and yes, snapper!
If your on a budget, look for ANY bar that has bottle beer.
They will have domestics for $2.00 & imports for $3.00. They will also have their own bands. The "can only" places are $3.50-$4.00 beers.
We went from A1A to Boot Hill, and ended up staying there for a good "Ozzi"copy band, followed by another great "AC/DC" copy band that kicked it till 11 o'clock. There was another "house band inside, but the outside bands were so loud, we didn't even know untill leaving.
Today, I WILL get ear plugs! The bands, and the I-95, I-4 highways were just too much on the ol' ears. Hours of 70-80 mph crusing, with all the loud pipes, and wind with no helmet, really that a toll.
****** day today, so I'll be fendered-up and be back (on Main st. only) with my better half next Saturday, all day & night. Just look for the dude with a sh-t eat'in grin on his face.
