My 4th weekend started by going to the airport to pick up a friend that was in from Sicily. She is a Master At Arms K9 and will be heading to Kuwait in a month after some stateside training. She was supposed to fly in at 8:50 pm, then 9:30 pm, then 10:00 pm... She finally made it at 10:45 pm; yay for mechanical difficulties.
On Sunday we went over to a friends house for yummy food, pool time and good friends. Our crew (which consisted of me, Darby, Chloe, Sadie and Steph) left around 4 pm. We headed out on the hour and a half trip up to Gulfport, MS. It was then when I found out my TomTom is bent on sabotage! It took me out to the boonies instead of the civilized Hampton Inn. So then it took another 30 minutes to figure out where we really needed to be.
After checking in to the hotel we met up with a couple of other military members who were about to be shipped out for a stint in Kuwait and Afghanistan. Our new found friend Derek bought fireworks so we all went down to the beach. It was actually pretty amazing; when we got there people were lighting fireworks up and down the beach. Fireworks were going off as far as the eye could see, it was great.
