Later that evening, some of the lake water had gotten into my sinuses and I had a strange allergic reaction and my whole face swelled up.

The great facial hair-growing experiment that began 18 days earlier at the start of my RV Adventure finally came to an end. A new personal record!

I accidentally left my brand new cell phone on the bus and my dad had to drive me to the NJ Transit Bus depot...

I am now the kind of person who tapes crystals to my shirt. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (How else do you expect to clear a blockage in your vishuddha?)

...and clear our pores.

While they were admiring the ceiling, I became quite taken with a nearby mirror that somehow made my nose look enormous! (Turns out it wasn't the mirror!)

A little after noon, Meredith and I put on our beach best...

I woke up hurting the next morning. Best cure for a hangover? the beach!

I like dressing up, but I don't really like all the planning and buying stuff that's involved in dressing up. So more often than not, I'll revert to a last-minute halloween costume with whatever's lying around.

After I finished borrowing Ellen's eyeliner, she touched up her slutty 80s rocker make up!

...and a few days after the party, Leigh sent us a link to...

Fell asleep with my hoodie on. Haha.

A little before midnight, everyone left whatever little corner of the party they were in and headed to the main room to bring in the New Year together. Me and Cyn.

Wendy showing off a zoomed-in pic of what she calls my "crazy eyes." We sang karaoke for about an hour or so and then around 12:30am they came in and told us the restaurant was getting ready to close. We decided to head over to Hanger Bar to see Sarah and Karen. Even though we'd only been drinking for a little while...

Later that night, we made ugly faces in the mirror together...

He wandered around on the path with us for like five full minutes while we checked him out and snapped tons of pics.

...was this fucking awesome water-proof case for my camera so that I can take pictures while scuba diving!

Here's me with my portable Wolverine drive! (When you're traveling, you can copy over the pictures from your full memory cards to this little bad boy, then erase the cards and keep shooting).

Once we hit the beach, it was portrait time!

After Fatty and I spent the better part of Wednesday getting acquinted with a few of the ranch's horses, on Thursday we were ready to ride. Here's me on the walk down...

And me. Someone call your high school photo teacher, I think what we've got here is a "work of art! " I call this one "Self-Reflections of a Helmeted Scooterteer."

"Yep, you're right Brian. You totally do need to cut off your silly, hippy hair."

When Fatty showed me the great mid-air picture he captured of me jumping of the rock, we decided we needed a picture of EVERYONE jumping off the rock. So without further ado, here we go!

It was right around this time that I decided it was time to pull out the video camera and start capturing some of this. I mean, Christ, I'd already failed to capture the lobotomy guy and Smari dropping the C-bomb about his sister - I wasn't about to miss out on any more. I asked him if he minded me filming him talking and he said he didn't. As soon as I started taping, he launched into all these stories about Iceland's crazy nightlife and told us that we needed to come back over the summer and spend a few days. "Don't worry about a hotel." He told us, "You won't be needing one." Hahaha. (Footage coming soon).

We breezed through security and made it to our gate just a little past 6pm (which gave us just over 2 hours to kill). We grabbed a snack in the cafeteria, read a bit and (what else?) goofed out and took pictures. (Chris and I had both just gotten new cameras so we spent a lot of time familiarizing ourselves with how to use them.

Andrew hands me back my cam. (If you look left of me you'll see I left in one nipple for all you pervs. Sweet!)
