~ November 14, 2013 ~ Rick Springfield Fan Getaway

Today was our first day at Club Med Sandpiper Bay in Port St. Lucie, Florida for the annual Rick Springfield fan getaway. This was our first "real" vacation ever and it was to celebrate our 25th anniversary in February 2014. We had originally planned to vacation in February and then this came up and we booked it rather impulsively. I then spent the next few months regretting that we had booked this trip instead of doing a more traditional anniversary-type vacation in February. From the minute we arrived, though, there were no regrets. It was truly an amazing experience from start to finish. I would recommend it to anyone, and would gladly do it over again if given the opportunity.


Hanging out by the pool in the afternoon.








There was a "Welcome Concert" at 8PM which was followed by the "Welcome Cocktail Party" - here you can see the bar set up by the pool and the concert stage in the background.


Here are a few shots from the first night's concert.





Palm trees, with the restaurant, Soleil, in the background.


The bar, Slice. We had to run in and check the Bruins score every once in awhile (oh, and maybe grab a drink or three, lol.)

At the airport in Newark, New Jersey waiting for our connecting flight to Florida.


~ November 11, 2013 ~ Rememberance/Veterans Day

Sorry for all the warm-up pics today, but...

just LOVE them in their camo jerseys! Especially #55, in case you couldn't tell. I would have loved to buy his warm-up worn jersey, but the bid was up to $1225.00 in the second intermission and my wallet was just a little light. Oh, well - maybe next time (just gotta win the lotto first.)




















Here they come!


Unfortunately, Stamkos suffered a broken leg in this game and will be out indefinitely. :(





Bruins win 3-0! They have won three of the last four games we attended by that score. The other was a 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday night. We've got a good record; maybe we should go more often, lol.

~ November 9, 2013 ~ Back at the Garden

Went to Boston today to see the Bruins play the Maple Leafs. Boston won 3-1. Was great to be back "home" again.


CBC sign that we brought.


Some shots during warm-up.









Our seats were really high up, so the game photos aren't really too good.



Hard to see around Big Z!


Chara scores on the powerplay!



Darrin enjoyed the Ice Girls, especially in these outfits, lol.





Time out for some strategizing.



Teammates congratulate Tuukka on the win!
