It was a "free" vacation for the family, he had to work during the day and that left us to wander around. I rented a car and she and I went to St. Augustine to look at everything. We went to the "Fountain Of Youth" to drink the water. Of course, we each had to buy a bottle of the water. We laughed so hard just picturing some old grumpy man filling little plastic bottles of "Fountain of Youth" water from the garden hose out back. I still have my cheezy souvenier water sitting on the shelf at home.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160371074353452445.post-16228613325108108472008-09-07T08:14:00.000-07:002008-09-07T08:14:00.000-07:00A friend brought me from Cancun, a teeny tiny bott...A friend brought me from Cancun, a teeny tiny bottle of Tequila shrink wrapped with a shot glass with Cancun on it and a hot pink tiny sombrero with glitter and and sequins spelling Cancun on it. :-)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12997549543731061699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160371074353452445.post-62626582436360920942008-09-06T15:30:00.000-07:002008-09-06T15:30:00.000-07:00Hi Suzanne :)Enter me!!

I love giveaways, even the cheesy ones!<BR/><BR/>My favorite cheesy souvenir (there have been oh so many...) was what was called "chinese handcuffs". I always bought my self a pair when my folks took us to San Francisco's China town. It was a tube of woven straw or rattan. The idea was that you would get some unsuspecting sucker to stick their two index fingers into either end. When they tried to take their fingers out, the weaving would tighten around their fingers and trap them! Ha! Ha! Great fun for a kid!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485422535638850892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160371074353452445.post-6047569805937753652008-09-05T05:02:00.000-07:002008-09-05T05:02:00.000-07:00Numerous years ago,in my 20's..., I went to Vegas ...Numerous years ago,in my 20's..., I went to Vegas and one of the souvenirs I got was a wind up toy named "Happy Willie".

I always try to find a nice bell for my bell collection that my mom started me on when I was in 8th grade so I have bells from places we've visited and places friends/family have visited. I guess one of the most "why?" souveniers someone ever gave me was a bag of ashes from Mt. St. Helens. My uncle gave it to me after his family visited there. So for the longest time when I was a kid I had this bag of ashes, first sitting in my room on the dresser, then tossed somewhere in my closet. I finally did toss it because I wasn't moving it from my parent's house to my new house when I got married LOLIndiana Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03952773295122582318noreply@blogger.com
