Moving Day 1

Today is the day... we hit the road and make our way to Maryland for the night. Our plan was to be on the road by 8am which didn't happen since we wanted to sleep a little longer. Then we had some other issues.

Me being all excited and brain dead (because I was excited and tired) as I was putting the lock on the truck (which the lock which is 2 pieces) I put the key whole facing up! How retarded am I?! so of course I freak out. Luckily we had 2 keys, so my dad cut one of the keys and was able to unlock the truck.. Then the trailer running lights weren't working so we had to make a trip to U-Haul. So we were finally on our way by 10:30am.

After going through 6 states we finally make it to the hotel in MD. Of course with a big truck Thiago had a great time driving down the streets of MD. When I made the hotel reservation I was told there would be no problem parking the truck that is also towing a car. Well guess what... there was no parking spots... luckily Thiago's friend only lived 20 mins away. So he took the truck to Cleber's place, while I checked in, unloaded Jane, also made room for his friend to come back to the hotel for the night.

Our plan was to go to bed early but that didn't happen. Of course with the way the day was going something else had to go wrong.. while we were parked at a gas station waiting for Cleber I was listening to the radio in my car and talking with Thiago. Well as we were about ready to go I turn my key to start the car... the engine is trying to turn over but it isn't... ya... dead battery.

We got jumper cables and a nice guy was able to help us. We finally got my car to start and headed back to the hotel.

Total drive time today: 8 hours
