A Weekend with Holly Bourban

Holly and I had a great weekend exploring and getting some much needed rest! Holly has Saturday and Sunday off from the aquarium. Saturday morning we started the day with a nice hike to Loch Raven Reservoir. It was great to get outside and start the day with some exercise. We then did a ton of errands, including going to the grocery store to get extra ingredients for a pasta dish I was making for dinner. We went to a little market where fresh fruits and vegetables were being sold, and they were so good!

 Holly took me to Pure Ocean for lunch where we had a pretzel with crab and cheese on it for lunch. I had never had a meal like this before, but I loved it. We had some down time to read after the errands, and then I made the pasta dish and Holly made a salad to go with it. They were both great and we ate them while watching Mission Impossible. I didn’t fall asleep watching the movie this time!

On Sunday, Holly went to the gym in the morning and I went on a run which kind of turned into a walk. I tried. The previous day, while doing errands, I saw a sign for a massive flea market, so we decided to go. We visited every little vendor and I ended up getting a necklace and Holly got a book. It was so hot, so we then went to her friend’s house and hung out by the pool for the rest of the day. The relaxation was great, and really rejuvenated both of us for the week ahead.
