Work and play in the USA Part10.

Pensacola goodbye you suck, any town that Sheryl Crow sings about should be avoided at all cost! Now  waffle house (as seen in Due date the night before), we are never going to eat in you again, you may have 50 staff and 4 customers but you are more capable of giving me projectile diarrhea (incidently this means 'flowing through' in Greek) than the after effects of an 'eat off' at Taco Bell.


We drove to Jacksonville and headed to Sawgrass golf course (pretty good one apparently) for a steak and a meet up with one of Neil's childhood friends, a golfer perchance! It's always nice to meet your friends friends - if they don't have long term mates then give them a wide berth, they might well be Freaks or often be parasites, after something you've got or once had looking for an 'in'.


We had a nice night, a very good steak, 2 amazingly expensive bottles of wine and learnt what a 'Florida Fountain' was from the Waiter (don't ask). Next morning woke up with a red wine and rum hangover, and red teeth to match! We trickled around to the players lounge, coffee, eggs ben, a casting and a half of a Man City game ensued on the telly.



On the road to Miami we go, down the west coast of Florida, we stopped off at Ron Jon surf hell to experience the corporate soul-less hell hole of surfing, had a lovely spot of lunch served to us by Pink and then headed down to Boynson where Neil had the idea of running into a model (male) that he'd worked with several times. 



"Whata we gonna do car sales are slumping, if it wasn't for me turkey farm and thanks giving we'd all be proper fucked!" "Hold on.. I've got an idea that might just work.... free turkey with every test drive?"



Now we were lucky as it was dark when we got there and Ryan had just come back from a surf comp, he ran a proper surf shop with his brother and dad, his dad opened it in 1962 selling t-shirts and boards in an area his dad had let him have. 



If your ever in the area go see Nomad Surf, its really chilled out there, we hung out at the beach chatting to frisbie girls and his mates, it was just what we needed before Miami!
