I went to a spoken word event on the night of day three that turned out to be very nice. I finally got a chance to meet up with another old friend (Dana) on day 4 at a restaurant called the Bamboo Club. Again, it was great to see an old face!

The rest of the time was spent relaxing, enjoying the weather, and working on a new project. Tuesday will be the first desert adventure day, so I should have plenty of photos to post!

Every day isn’t accounted for, but I’ll just wing it and make them random adventure days. Today’s agenda consists of being outside soaking up this fantastic weather, driving around and learning the area a bit, and generally doing a whole lot of nothing!

I managed to find a small Creole/Caribbean restaurant near Tempe. I was really hoping to get some curry goat, but jerk chicken and red beans & rice hit the spot! If you are in the mood for desert try the Southern Pecan, Chocolate Chip, or Banana Waffle w/whip cream!

Second Line Creole - Caribbean Cuisine
2727 E. Broadway Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85040


The owners of the restaurant are super nice! They gave me a few tips on what to check out while I was here, they even told me to check out the competition (another Caribbean restaurant down the street)! After I left I felt like driving around some more and taking in some sights…

Back To Room
Headed back to the room for a bit…

Later I met up with my friend Tanya and her boyfriend for drinks at a place called San Felipe Cantina Restaurant in Tempe. I recently connected with a LOT of my friends from elementary school on Facebook, Tanya is one of them. I’ve known most of them since kindergarten! I hadn’t seen her since eighth grade, it was good to see an old face from my childhood. Another old classmate was suppose to meet us as well but she had to cancel. ( :-P Dana!) We all plan to hookup later this week with a couple of others as well.

I had a hell of a headache after I left (and no, not from drinking!), so I called it a night when I got back to my room. I’m looking forward to another day of beautiful weather tomorrow!
