25 Things for my 25th Birthday

So everyone on the trip has learned of my love of lists and as a result I was given a little something extra this morning with my cue sheet, a list of 25 things I needed to find while biking around on my 25th birthday. Here is a compilation of pictures from the day's events. There are some videos floating around as well, but I have not figured out how to upload them with this app just yet.

Take a crazy photo at mile 25


Honk the horn of an 18 wheeler
Guess the number Marta is thinking ... 1-25 (I guessed on the second try and she made me a sandwich)
Find your birthday cape and crown
Jump into a body of water
Do something You have never done before (bridge pose on some hay)
Learn the state song and sing it loud and proud (we did it the LA visitors center and got these snazzy pins)
Borrow a cup of sugar from a neighbor
Literally stop and smell the roses
Mail yourself a postcard to Monteray
Ride a horse (or a toy one)
This was technically taken the day after, but sadly the animal cracker I was going to take a picture with was eaten by a hungry teammate on the road
Play hopscotch with a stranger
Wait for a surprise from th Gentleman's Club (the eight guys on our trip)
For this one the guys had planned a bike ride a dusk to check out all of the historical sites of the city (swoon), but just as they had snuck my bike outside a huge thunder storm rolled through, complete with an air horn warning. They were quick on their feet and came up with a plan to escort me through the city under an umbrella to get some ice cream!!
Things completed, but on video

  • Learn three LA'isms
  • Sing a song at the top of your lungs on a bridge
  • Shoot a dance video with strangers
  • Make a beagle (this is a half one because I have the stuff to make bagels, but have not actually done it yet)
  • DM birthday jewels
  • DM a birthday kiss
 

Things not completed

  • Take a picture with a blue dog
  • Get a picture with a shirtless police officer or fireman
  • Get a Natchitoches meat pie
  • Get your face painted
  • Take a shot with 25 people
  • Slip and slide on the Hoff
