BFF Adventure Week

By Samantha Curtis @hooahandhiccups

Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (“Toyota”) provided me with compensation and use of a Prius for a short period of time. The opinions I have shared about this vehicle are my own.

Since having kids, I haven’t really been able to take many trips or go on many vacations. Or even a staycation for that matter. So since the kids were in camp last week, my friend Amy and I decided to go on a little adventure around town. Just me and her, doing some of the things we love! Plus a few new things we had never done before.

Southeast Toyota was kind enough to loan me a new whip for the week… a Prius! I picked up the Prius from the dealership Monday evening and immediately fell in love. It was obviously different from the SUV I drive but I loved it. It seemed so state-of-the-art and had so many features. If you follow me on Snapchat (@samantha_show) you know that this thing PARKS itself. Like, parallel parks itself. Insert mind blown emoji. It also gets 800 miles per tank of gas. That’s insanity, right?

I picked up Amy the next morning and we headed on our first adventure…ziplining! I’ve always wanted to do it and this seemed like a perfect thing to do to kick off our adventure. There were two ziplines; one over the Chattahoochee River and one in the woods. I think I actually liked the one in the woods more because it went a little faster and was a bigger drop!

We worked up an appetite after our adventure so we grabbed coffee and a snack and then headed to get our nails and toes done! I loved that my Pandora hooked right up to the Bluetooth in the car; every girl needs the perfect music to complete a girls day, am I right?

We did a little shopping after our nails and toes were finished and then I had to head back to camp to pick up my kids. But we were ready to head out the next day for more adventures! Which included a trip to the spa for facials, lunch, and then some more shopping. Complete with a photo shoot in some of my new purchases 🙂

We had so much fun exploring our town that week. Sometimes when you live somewhere for a long time you forget to take advantage of all of the amazing opportunities around you. We went places and did things we had never done before and it was so much fun. I was also kind of obsessed with this Prius and was super sad I had to give it back. But I think we’re going to make more of an effort to go on adventures more often. I’ve been inspired!
