I love free stuff…

December 27, 2009

Last time I hung out with Tracy, she borrowed my gloves and forgot to return them. So I was headed back to the Sheraton to see her again before she left and claim my gloves. I met her in the lobby and she escorted me to the VIP lounge on one of the top levels. The lounge was awesome! It had a bar with different alcohols and mixers free for one to pour their own drink. Then we walked into the other part and they had a buffet style setup. They had about six or seven different appetizer type foods, with fresh food coming every 20 minutes or so. We just sat and talked for a few hours. It is crazy to think that we hadn’t seen each other in four years, but picked up like we had been talking this whole time.

After we were done eating, really after I ate everything in sight, she gave me a tour of the hotel. She also said she and Zach had some stuff that they wouldn’t finish before they left. She asked if I was interested. Of course, when have I ever turned down anything free? So up to her room. She had magazines galore, all with recipes inside. I put those in my back pack, then she had a whole box of food that they wouldn’t be able to eat before they left. She asked if I wanted any of it. Of course, there was peanut butter inside! And it was JIF! She ended up giving me the whole box, for which I was, and still am, very grateful.

What are the chances that two girls who went to high school together in Anchorage, AK would meet up across the world in Turkey after not talking for four years?
