ASHEVILLE, NC WEEKEND TRIP

Flamingo Tumbler (similar-$18)
Lemon Bikini (TTS-$19)



I'm excited that so many of you wanted to see what we did in Asheville, NC for Courtnie's Bach party, cause it's definitely the best trip I've ever had!

To start, we are all 85 years old in a 20something's body. Loud and proud. We never made it out to a bar the whole weekend, hahah. No shame. But, we had big plans to hang at Off The Wagon Piano Bar. It came highly highly recommended, but Netflix and pillow talk about the old days won on this weekend. I'm not mad about it though!

WHERE WE STAYED
Our Airbnb was the cutest! So so nice and clean and in a great spot. It was about 10 minutes from the Sierra Nevada brewery and 15-20 from downtown. Publix and our favorite breakfast spot were within 5 minutes! Click here to see where we stayed.


FUN & FOOD
Highly highly recommend. One of the best things I’ve ever done! It far exceeded my expectations and the best $20 I’ve ever spent. And I sound like a Google review so, let me try to stop that haha. 
So basically, you park, get shuttled up the road, grab a float (and cooler float if you need one, extra $5), put in the water, hook yourselves together, and RELAX for the next 2 hours til you reach the end where they help you out. 
They said that the put-in area was the deepest part of the whole float-9 feet. We were able to stop and stand or hang out on some rocks/an island pretty much any time we wanted. But, that made our trip 4 hours instead of 2, and it was amazing haha. The floats are so comfortable, your butt isn’t in the water, and they have cup holders!  The only change we would’ve made... bring snacks 😂

It’s actually a pizzeria but we all ordered pasta 😂 what the heck. It was good though! And they have SO many beers to choose from. The blueberry was good! I’m not one for craft beers, but it was a fun spot!

So nice we went twice. Seriously. If you’re a biscuit and jam lover, you’ve got to go. Don’t be intimidated by the long line. It moves pretty fast and the food comes out super fast, too. Literally not a bad thing on the menu, and they have a huge Jam Bar that’s to die for. 

I don’t think I’ve ever been to a Mexican spot that I didn’t like, so I’m adding this one to the list. I got a burrito bowl and it was DELISH. Hit the spot after our long day on the river! Thank you to the sweet gal that recommended!
