I know, you can't find an answer. Neither could we, so after our lunch event today we took the Flex and ventured to the beach.
There we stood, right there beside the blue-green pacific water.
There was sand laying below us, rocks and logs scattered around us, and a vast blue spread of sky above us. We stood there and breathed in gusts of mountain-fresh air. And not the Febreeze kind. This is the real deal people: boundless blows of wind coming from the depths of the pockets of earth around us, echoing amidst the mountains on the horizon.
Yes indeed, the perfect place to spend an afternoon......had these boundless blows of echoing wind not been FREEZING cold!!
Truthfully, we arrived dressed to the nines in beach attire ready for a day of sandy relaxation, but were forced back into the Flex ten minutes later on account of goosebumps.
BUT! Back at the hotel, we improvised a new plan.
It wasn't any comparison to sand, but the chrome on top of the Showtruck acted as a great sun conductor! I'm back in my Scottish chamber now and I'm already feelin' the burn.
In other news, there's still a week and a half left until we're back at ye olde Lodge, but today (before our sun bath) we hosted our last Head Office event at Thrifty's. It was event number seven and definitely earned the title of BEST EVENT of the summer tour so far!
All our customers were so friendly and excited to see us at their own office. We were complimented so many times on the trailer, our service, the food, and Plinko turned all the middle-aged employees into a group of wide-eyed kids excited to win some STUFF!
We were serving Thai wraps again today, but also Ultimate Chicken Dogs and Salsalitta Chicken Thighs on a bun.
Never tried 'em? Well, our chicken dogs speak for themselves. (Or at least they would if the chickens were still alive, so I'll tell you about them now.) They are our biggest hot dog, delightfully juicy, and contain no MSG. Mmmmmm hm!
As for our Salsalitta thighs, they are boneless, skinless, and pre-marinated so you get that spicy mexican flavour without lifting a finger. It's a fiesta every time!
The cool thing about this particular event was that our Ultimates and Salsalittas are unlisted in Thrifty's stores, meaning that you can't buy them at Thrifty's because they don't carry the product - yet. Our goal today was to encourage our customers to take interest in our product within their own store.
It will take a little while to find out if we succeeded, but from what we heard, everyone really enjoyed the food and thanked us countless times for making the trek out west from Ontario.
It was a great day for promotion and it felt so great to be appreciated for doing so! We definitley agreed with Natalie when she said that people on the West coast are just more laid back.
...much like John the Fifth, the Waddling Dog himself!!!!!!
Yep. 'Twas a lovely day on the island :)
Now put cha hands up!
