I’m Jenny Kaelin and I’m not a blogger, just a huge fan of Martinis and Minivans. When I heard about Flat Martini going on adventures, I just knew I had to be a part of it and that he had to come to Daytona Beach. It made my day when I found out I was selected to hang out with Flat Martini for a while!
Everyone was super excited when Flat Martini, aka Flat, arrived in my mailbox. Of course there was a lot of explaining about what he was and what it was about, but everyone loved him! My neighbor’s daughter, Jasmine, insisted on being the first to have her picture taken with him.
Flat’s first stop was the beach. He was quite adamant that you don’t come to Daytona and not go to the beach. Unfortunately, it was quite windy and hard to get a good picture of Flat and I so he picked this one to show off the beauty of the beach.
Flat met some of my husband’s coworker’s and thought they were a lot of fun. He even worked with them for a few hours. Apparently he’s pretty good at swinging a hammer and using a drill. They said he was a huge help and is welcome anytime!
Then it’s Bike Week 2015 in Daytona Beach! Flat had tons of fun and met lots of new people but the camera we were using went MIA. We did manage to get one picture on the way down there, however poor Flat is stuck in the saddlebag on my neighbor’s bike. He still wanted to share the picture though…..such a good sport! He’s super excited about Biketoberfest in October. He wants a redo on those pictures!
Flat was even in town for my son’s 15th birthday! We all went to a hibachi grill. I begged, pleaded and attempted to bribe my son into letting Flat cook with him, but apparently he was being the typical “it’s embarrassing mom” teenager. Flat understood and even managed to calm me down.
Finally, Flat’s last excursion during his stay was a BBQ/pool party. He was so excited to be there! In fact, he was first in the pool! Of course he had me hold him as he’s not much of a swimmer.
I had a great time visiting with Flat and hope he had a fantastic time too! He’s a great sidekick and is welcome anytime!
