On Saturday, after recovering from Graham's epic graduation day, Jesse and I decided to take it easy. Unfortunately, I was still on East Coast time and sleeping in (for me) finished around 7am. Not wanting to be awake and miserable all by myself, I rolled around a bit and made Jesse get up with me and have Emily's muffins and coffee. Around 10:30, Bob made everyone "second breakfast," which included a delicious omelet, Corralitos breakfast sausage, and OJ.
Larson and Serena stopped by an hour later to get the day started with a leisurely game of mini golf and tacos. I only remembered to take a photo of my tacos after they were nearly gone (thankfully I only ordered 2 instead of 4)! Oh, and I found out that Squirt is quite tasty. Larson ordered the chimichanga, which apparently translates as the Spanish equivalent of "thingamajig." When I first googled chimichanga, I accidentally read the definition as "thanksgiving." Given the size of Larson's meal, I could see why - his chimichanga was about the size of my lower leg.
Anyway, with full bellies we were off to Neptune's Kingdom for a round of miniature golf at the Buccaneer Bay course. This was not our maiden voyage on the course, so we knew the drill: duck whenever Jesse swings, helmets are optional (but recommended), try to keep within the 6 stroke maximum, poop jokes are inevitable. We realized that it had been nearly 2 years since we last played and a new black light room had been created. I wouldn't say that enhanced the game in any way, but it was fun to see Serena's diamond glow like a superpower orb (Larson and Jesse were not impressed). In true form, balls were hit in the water, bounced off walls, and annoyingly stopped short by secret-hidden-bonus bumps in the green turf. Serena was the zen master of defying physics, which resulted in some pretty awesome situations. Maybe it was the all powerful moonstone in her ring, or the lead feeling in our stomachs from the tacos that transferred to her ball. Regardless, it was hilarious and we laughed (with her) a lot. Sometimes we laughed so hard that I thought Larson might get a nosebleed.
Buccaneer Bay mini golf warmed us up for the climactic afternoon at the newest boardwalk game. We got free tickets (for the grand opening) of Desperado, a wild west type setup where you sit on fake horses and shoot bad guys on a movie screen. The more you hit, the harder the horse bucks. I was an ace at the Desperado, scoring 62 points and coming in second place. Larson was also good at shooting, just not at the screen.

Funny stuff.
However, that is Tacos Moreno. What kind of crazy taco joint are you guys eating at?
Wait... on second look (I enlarged the photo) I realized that you had tacos from Tacos Moreno Dos on Beach St... very clever.
Hope you enjoyed.
Actually, we had tacos at a place called De La Hacienda. So I still haven't had tacos from your favorite joint!
