South African Claire had organised a canal cruise and then a dinner reservation at a Mexican restaurant so that we could have some margaritas!
For starters, half of us were sick. South African Claire (or Saffa Claire) was sick as, but still came. I was pretty sick still, but came too. Kieran pulled out because he was sick. The metros weren't working because of some track malfunction so Cherilyn couldn't make it! Karen, Ashley and Steve were mega late because of the metro issues.
Saffa Claire, Cath and I were all a little bit late to the canal cruise, and so we missed it! Oops! So we (along with Kinga and Ricketts) headed to the restaurant early, in order to get started on the margaritas! Which we did - the first drink was free because of some Valentine's special! After a long wait Karen, Ashe and Steve showed up and we finally ordered our meal (the first lot of us had been at the restaurant for over an hour and a half at this stage! Then, they mixed up our meals and so we didn't get any food for another hour and a half! Just before the food is about to come out, Saffa Claire decides she can't stay out any longer as she's feeling too sick, so tells the guy to cancel her Burrito because she can't wait any longer. He's fine with this, but he cancels BOTH BURRITOS that we had ordered from our table, meaning that 10 minutes later, when the food arrives, Steve gets no burrito! So then they had to make another for him!
Such a debacle. By the end of the night I was shattered and I hadn't really done anything!
At least our canal cruise tickets weren't date specific - we can still go on a cruise at some point!
