Boating, Bicycling, and Best Friends

I had the perfect day today.  It was the first day of my 9 day vacation (yay!) and it was a day filled with all of my favorite things.

I went out on the boat with my family.  It was cloudy at first, but the weather ended up clearing and it turned out to be a just beautiful night.  I practiced swimming in open water for my triathlon and we did some tubing.

Please excuse the fact that I look like a crazy person!  :)

After boating, we went back home.  My parents decided to take some naps.  I was a good girl and went for a bike ride.  It was awesome.  I am falling more and more in love with my new bike everyday.  I love going fast (my average speed was much faster than normal today!) and I feel so much more confident on corners.  And it's pretty.  :)

After my bike ride, we ate dinner and I met up with my best friend and her husband.  They are in the process of buying their first house so we went and checked that out and then got my favorite ice cream in Holland!  It was the perfect way to end such a great day.

Without even planning it, I actually had really good training week this week.  I did each sport twice, completed a brick workout, and did a long-ish bike ride.

1 week until my triathon!
