WEBVTT - Miss Bahama Mama

0:00:08.720 --> 0:00:16.919
<v Speaker 1>Misspelling with Tori Spelling and iHeartRadio podcast. Okay, I just

0:00:18.079 --> 0:00:25.360
<v Speaker 1>officially took my kids on the first vacation as a

0:00:25.400 --> 0:00:33.400
<v Speaker 1>single mom alone with five children. Oh boy, so grateful.

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:38.880
<v Speaker 1>We had the best time. I mean, oh am I kidding,

0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:43.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm a mom. I need a vacation from my vacation.

0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:49.199
<v Speaker 1>But the kids had such a great time, and I

0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:52.920
<v Speaker 1>felt like this was the right time. They've been through

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot in the last couple of years and we

0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:03.280
<v Speaker 1>haven't been able to go places and do things, and

0:01:03.520 --> 0:01:06.240
<v Speaker 1>I really for this spring break. I was like, you

0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:11.000
<v Speaker 1>know what, I want to make this happen and super grateful.

0:01:11.400 --> 0:01:17.320
<v Speaker 1>We went to Atlantis in the Bahamas, Bahama Mama here,

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:22.880
<v Speaker 1>and they were so lovely and just provide it such

0:01:22.920 --> 0:01:32.319
<v Speaker 1>an amazing environment and time for us, and it was great. Okay,

0:01:33.080 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 1>let me start at the beginning. First of all, I

0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:41.400
<v Speaker 1>just got to say, I came back from my vacation

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>and this is the only thing I came back with.

0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 1>Nice thanks. What does it say? It says Bahamas? Oh yeah.

0:01:54.320 --> 0:02:01.680
<v Speaker 2>When I describe it for the fans, oh, it's a.

0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:08.360
<v Speaker 1>It's a booby mug clack. It's quite literally a boob

0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:12.560
<v Speaker 1>mug so I used to when I was younger, and

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:17.640
<v Speaker 1>I haven't traveled that many places because my fear of flying.

0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:23.480
<v Speaker 1>And you know, it's my new chapter, Tory two point zero,

0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:28.320
<v Speaker 1>and I'm trying to let go of that and really

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:34.880
<v Speaker 1>do experiences with my children and create memories. So when

0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I was younger, though, whenever I would go away, which

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:41.960
<v Speaker 1>was usually for work, like to go do a TV

0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:46.120
<v Speaker 1>movie or anything. I don't even know why, I would

0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:50.040
<v Speaker 1>always get a shot glass and it wasn't for like

0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:55.920
<v Speaker 1>drinking purposes. But yeah, so I have this like insane

0:02:56.400 --> 0:03:00.840
<v Speaker 1>shock glass collection from like, you know, a TV movie

0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:06.080
<v Speaker 1>in you know, Charleston, South Carolina, you know, every place

0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 1>in Canada, like you know, and the places I did

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:13.680
<v Speaker 1>visit and I have actually been to. We went to Nassau,

0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 1>which I think there's seven hundred islands in the Bahamas,

0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:23.280
<v Speaker 1>which I did not know. Nasau is the capital and

0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:28.160
<v Speaker 1>it's just like growing exponentially every year. So I was

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:32.640
<v Speaker 1>here twice. I came once on a celebrity like one

0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:36.080
<v Speaker 1>of those celebrity trips. I and Zering was there with me,

0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:40.440
<v Speaker 1>my brother was with me, a bunch of other celebrities.

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, Jean Claude van Dam last time. Let

0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:49.520
<v Speaker 1>me take that again. Jean Claude van Dam. The first

0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:52.480
<v Speaker 1>time I was in the Bahamas, was there on the

<v Speaker 1>celebrity trip and at the time along with Chris Jenner

0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 1>and then at the time Bruce Jenner. So that was

0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:08.640
<v Speaker 1>a fun experience, and Jean Claude van Dam had quite

0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:13.120
<v Speaker 1>a fancy for me, and he kept coming up but

0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:15.800

<v Speaker 1>like action film. And I was like, I'm not that girl.

0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:39.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm not like a casting couch girl. And I was like,

0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.640
<v Speaker 1>and he keeps calling me Lori, and he's like Sean

0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.200

<v Speaker 1>didn't go for it. Yeah, could have been a huge movie. Star.

0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh well. But the second time I was in the Bahamas,

0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:11.479
<v Speaker 1>I came for Jason Priestley's wedding. Ruthan, you were there.

0:05:11.760 --> 0:05:12.159
<v Speaker 2>I was.

0:05:12.839 --> 0:05:15.880

0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:20.680
<v Speaker 1>oh I was, I was, you were and we were

0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:24.800
<v Speaker 1>there and Jason new we got married in the Bahamas

0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:29.120
<v Speaker 1>and it was really really fun. It was great, great weekend.

0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:33.960
<v Speaker 1>That was such a great trip. And yeah, that was

0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:37.960
<v Speaker 1>all before kids. So this is my first time there

0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:42.440
<v Speaker 1>with kids. And it was like to begin with, it

0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:45.000
<v Speaker 1>was like, you know, I'm doing everything on my own. Now,

0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:48.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm my brain doesn't process things like oh my gosh,

0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:51.400
<v Speaker 1>booking flights doing like I don't have an assistant, Like

0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:57.640
<v Speaker 1>it's like, uh so, just just booking the flights alone

0:05:57.800 --> 0:06:02.640
<v Speaker 1>for six humans was like, oh my gosh. And of course,

0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:05.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know, kids are kids, and they're like, oh,

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:09.160
<v Speaker 1>are we in first class? I'm like nope. Are we

0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:13.920
<v Speaker 1>in business? I'm like nope. So it was a pack flight,

0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 1>so we got a direct flight there. It was like

0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the last seats available, very last row of the plane.

0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:28.599
<v Speaker 1>But Bo was so excited and I realized, like he's

0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:33.039
<v Speaker 1>been to Mexico before, he's been to Maui, but he

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:36.160
<v Speaker 1>doesn't remember because he just turned eight, so you know,

0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:40.000
<v Speaker 1>his memories like he kind of remembers Maui, but not really.

0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:42.680
<v Speaker 1>So for him, he was like, oh my gosh. He

0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:47.200
<v Speaker 1>was elated. This was like really truly his first vacation.

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:51.440
<v Speaker 1>And he started packing like days before, which I'm like,

0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 1>you are not my son, because if you know me,

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:56.920
<v Speaker 1>you know me. And I throw everything in a bag

0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:01.120
<v Speaker 1>thirty minutes before we leave for the airport. That's a

0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:06.000
<v Speaker 1>lot like fifteen Dan stress it. Ruthanna and I go

0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:07.920
<v Speaker 1>on work trips all the time. That stresses her out

0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:19.480
<v Speaker 1>really well, A list you have to medicate. She sends

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:22.240
<v Speaker 1>me a list the day before and I'm like, that

0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:24.200
<v Speaker 1>is so kind of you, and you took the time

0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:25.600
<v Speaker 1>to do that. Do you think I'm going to look

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:26.160
<v Speaker 1>at a list.

0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 2>I haven't known to come over and pack for you

0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:33.920
<v Speaker 2>because I just can't handle worrying that you won't be

0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:35.760
<v Speaker 2>backed and believe.

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Well, you usually get here and you're like are you

0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:46.440
<v Speaker 1>ready and I'm like nope, and they're like okay, let's go. Okay.

0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:49.240
<v Speaker 1>So Bo was packing days before and he had a

0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 1>T shirt picked out for every day and underwear for

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:56.080
<v Speaker 1>every day pants shorts. I'm like, dude, we're not going

0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:58.560
<v Speaker 1>to need that, Like you're it's vacation, you're going to

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:00.680
<v Speaker 1>be in the same thing. But he was too excited,

0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:03.200
<v Speaker 1>so he was bringing everything. And then he was like

0:08:03.240 --> 0:08:07.800
<v Speaker 1>shriping toys. I'm like, you're gonna need toys, like you're

0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:12.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna be out there doing so many things. Anyway, it

0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:18.680
<v Speaker 1>was it was a good flight. You know. He asked,

0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:21.720
<v Speaker 1>as all kids do, are we there yet? Are we

0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:24.640
<v Speaker 1>there yet? That doesn't just happen in the car, It

0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:28.960
<v Speaker 1>happens on planes too, And I was like, well, nope,

0:08:29.240 --> 0:08:32.680
<v Speaker 1>four more hours, Nope, three more hours. And our flight

0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:36.959
<v Speaker 1>there didn't have like the TVs or anything, so I

0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:40.480
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh boy. And then he's like, oh, snacks.

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:43.920
<v Speaker 1>He wanted snacks and I'm like, oh my god. And

0:08:44.480 --> 0:08:46.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, they didn't have meals on the plane, so

0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:49.800
<v Speaker 1>we dealt with that. He had some like pretzels and stuff.

0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:52.560
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, he was just so excited to get there

0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:58.440
<v Speaker 1>and we landed. It was beautiful. Well we landed at night,

0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:01.800
<v Speaker 1>so it was beautiful, but we couldn't see everything. And

0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:04.120
<v Speaker 1>I said, just wait in the morning, you guys, you're

0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:08.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna see, it's gonna be like crystal blue waters. We're

0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 1>on an island. It's gonna be so great. The hotel

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:18.120
<v Speaker 1>picked us up, got us to Atlantis, and in Atlantis

0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:24.000
<v Speaker 1>we had Butler surface and I was like, I mean,

0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:27.079
<v Speaker 1>you know me, I can't ask for anything, like I

0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:31.920
<v Speaker 1>feel bad asking anybody to do anything for me ever,

0:09:32.200 --> 0:09:36.560
<v Speaker 1>like not worthy, not worthy. And we got there and

0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:39.960
<v Speaker 1>they were like, oh my gosh, you know my kids.

0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Of course my kids go, uh did we see a Starbucks?

0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:47.880
<v Speaker 1>Heer And I was like, oh my god, you got

0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:51.040
<v Speaker 1>to Bahamas and that's what you noticed in the hotel

0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:54.920
<v Speaker 1>walking up because I'm pointing out, like this hotel they

0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:59.120
<v Speaker 1>have like they have everything. They have like different towers.

0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I think they have fun different towers. It's expansive, it's

0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:07.440
<v Speaker 1>huge something for everyone. You really don't have to leave

0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:12.640
<v Speaker 1>the resort, which we didn't, and you can do so

0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:16.240
<v Speaker 1>many different activities anything and everything. Oh we had so

0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:19.240
<v Speaker 1>many plans, you know they had you could go like

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:24.520
<v Speaker 1>swim with the dolphins. Oh of course, my kids because

0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:28.760
<v Speaker 1>we have pigs. We're like we read on TikTok or

0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:31.720
<v Speaker 1>we saw on TikTok that you can go swimming with

0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:36.200
<v Speaker 1>the pigs and so on the way there, we asked

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:39.560
<v Speaker 1>the driver. We were like, oh, you know, tell us

0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:42.679
<v Speaker 1>some great things like and I was like, you know,

0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>if we do venture off, you know, out of the resort,

0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:50.360
<v Speaker 1>we like, you know, not anything touristy or fancy. We

0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:54.320
<v Speaker 1>want like really like like great food and like where

0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:58.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, locals eat like we want want that experience.

0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:03.760
<v Speaker 1>We like trying new food and everything. And then I said, okay,

0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I got to ask you. My kid's asking about swimming

0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:10.640
<v Speaker 1>at the pigs and he's like not a fan. And

0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:15.160
<v Speaker 1>I was like why And my son, Finn goes because

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.840
<v Speaker 1>they poop everywhere. Have you seen those videos? And it's

0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:23.360
<v Speaker 1>in literally the videos that people being like, oh my gosh,

0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:26.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm swimming with the pigs. I'm playing with the pigs,

0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:30.320
<v Speaker 1>And then it's like that on Instagram versus the reality

0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:33.560
<v Speaker 1>that there's someone in the water that literally is going

0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:37.600
<v Speaker 1>behind and just scooping up poop because they're just pooping everywhere.

0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:45.280
<v Speaker 1>No way, you just burst my bubble. But I know

0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Finn looked it up and he showed me. He's like, Mom,

0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:56.040
<v Speaker 1>don't do this. He's so nice. He goes, don't waste

0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:58.960
<v Speaker 1>our money. On this he goes the pigs poop everywhere.

0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:01.600
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be messy, it's going to get everywhere. No

0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:04.600
<v Speaker 1>one wants that. And I was like, no, no, no, no,

0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:07.800
<v Speaker 1>we don't want that. So we did not do that.

0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:11.120
<v Speaker 1>But there was like a the at Atlantis that you

0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:14.960
<v Speaker 1>can go like swim with the dolphins and play time

0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:19.560
<v Speaker 1>with the steamrays and go fishing and do all that stuff.

0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:23.840
<v Speaker 1>We had all these big plans, but honestly we were

0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:28.559
<v Speaker 1>so happy just going down to the pools every day.

0:12:28.920 --> 0:12:31.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh the water park. They have a water park. That

0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:34.840
<v Speaker 1>was big success. The kids loved that we were there

0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:46.240
<v Speaker 1>every day. That was like huge. Going back to our

0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:50.760
<v Speaker 1>butler the first night, Valentina, and you become like family

0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:54.200
<v Speaker 1>with everyone. I got to say, everyone in the Bahamas,

0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:59.959
<v Speaker 1>especially at Atlantis, huge hearts. Everyone is kind everyone is positive,

0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:07.160
<v Speaker 1>and it's very refreshing nowadays coming from the States that

0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:11.439
<v Speaker 1>we're in, going somewhere where people are just all positive

0:13:11.760 --> 0:13:16.720
<v Speaker 1>leading with kindness, you know, just happy and just the

0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:23.280
<v Speaker 1>kindness was unbelievable. So but Valentina says, oh, I was like, oh,

0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:26.720
<v Speaker 1>my kid's like, oh Starbucks, and she's like, oh yeah,

0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:30.079
<v Speaker 1>And I was like Okay, well, if you're going to

0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 1>get up in the morning, go to Starbucks, like we

0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.080
<v Speaker 1>could go down and have breakfast, like you can get

0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Starbucks anywhere. And she was like, no, give us the order.

0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:43.480
<v Speaker 1>We will place the order for Starbucks. And I was

0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.800
<v Speaker 1>like what. I was like, oh no, no, no, I

0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:49.839
<v Speaker 1>don't feel worthy. I can't ask for things. She's like, well,

0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:52.320
<v Speaker 1>she's like I'm going to change that. She's like, you're

0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 1>going to learn to ask for things on this trip

0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:57.560
<v Speaker 1>because that is what this experience is about. We are

0:13:57.600 --> 0:13:59.960
<v Speaker 1>here to help. And I was like, oh my god,

0:14:00.480 --> 0:14:04.760
<v Speaker 1>thank you. So yeah, so the kids got Starbucks every

0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:08.840
<v Speaker 1>single morning. I'm like pointless whatever. But AnyWho, being a

0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:12.760
<v Speaker 1>big family, you know, we always have to have rooms

0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:16.479
<v Speaker 1>where we double up. And they had this beautiful suite

0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:20.040
<v Speaker 1>that they put us in where we had two bedrooms,

0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:24.200
<v Speaker 1>so Bo and I were in one and then two

0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:28.720
<v Speaker 1>queen beds in one room, so Liam and Finn and

0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:34.520
<v Speaker 1>Stella and Hattie. Although Hattie's Hattie said that Finn was

0:14:34.600 --> 0:14:37.720
<v Speaker 1>on his device talking to his friends back in La

0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:39.720
<v Speaker 1>like great, how much did that cost?

0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Uh?

0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Most of the nights, so she slept on the couch

0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:50.480
<v Speaker 1>every night to get some sleep. But it's definitely Mike.

0:14:51.040 --> 0:14:54.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm lucky my kids sleep in and this isn't a

0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:57.600
<v Speaker 1>me thing, Like, well, I like to sleep too, but

0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:00.920
<v Speaker 1>having kids, I'm up every day, Like I just wake

0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:03.960
<v Speaker 1>up at like six or seven, but I'll chill and

0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:06.960
<v Speaker 1>just lay there. If they're not up, I'm like, cool,

0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:12.240
<v Speaker 1>this is some meantime I can get some work done. Yeah. Anyway,

0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:16.400
<v Speaker 1>so they slept late, like every day, so by the

0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:19.280
<v Speaker 1>time we would get down to the pool, it was like,

0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:22.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, half a day and it's like okay, but

0:15:24.320 --> 0:15:26.640
<v Speaker 1>they have a lounge there, so they would go up

0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:32.440
<v Speaker 1>and have breakfast. Bo was a huge fan of the

0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:38.760
<v Speaker 1>chicken sausages. He says, no pork, my good boy, chicken sausages.

0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:44.240
<v Speaker 1>He got that. Every day, he got orange juice. Mama

0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:50.000
<v Speaker 1>had an espresso and a mimosa. Why because I deserve it.

0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:55.760
<v Speaker 1>And it was really funny. Before we left for the trip,

0:15:56.040 --> 0:16:02.440
<v Speaker 1>my daughter Stella, we had gone to Rolling Loud, first

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:06.200
<v Speaker 1>music festival that I've ever been to in my life

0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:11.480
<v Speaker 1>aside from like iHeart experiences, but like at two day

0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:14.960
<v Speaker 1>like music festival and it's called Rolling Loud and it's

0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:18.600
<v Speaker 1>rap music and some of my kids were like, oh

0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:23.120
<v Speaker 1>my god, we're super into it. So we got tickets,

0:16:23.160 --> 0:16:27.000
<v Speaker 1>and of course, single mom here I had to take them.

0:16:27.120 --> 0:16:29.400
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, oh my god, it's just like

0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:35.400
<v Speaker 1>thousands of people and they're just dancing and jumping, and

0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:39.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure, you know a lot of people are intoxicated.

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:43.800
<v Speaker 1>It's just like loud music. And I'm like, oh my gosh.

0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:48.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm a good mom. I'm a really good mom. But anyway,

0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:53.080
<v Speaker 1>she got her toes stepped on so hard at one

0:16:53.080 --> 0:16:58.560
<v Speaker 1>of the performances that her toenails turned black and blue

0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:03.760
<v Speaker 1>and one toenail came off. It was that bad. So

0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:09.520
<v Speaker 1>she was worried going to you know, another country and

0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:13.080
<v Speaker 1>being you know, in the pool or the ocean and

0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:17.119
<v Speaker 1>the sand with the toenails. So the day before we

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:20.600
<v Speaker 1>got in to see a podiatrist and we went and

0:17:20.680 --> 0:17:24.080
<v Speaker 1>he said to me, okay, you know, he patched her up.

0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:28.080
<v Speaker 1>She was okay, and it's fine, but he said, oh,

0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 1>where are you going? He said, oh, the Bahamas And

0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:37.399
<v Speaker 1>he said oh with who, Like, are you bringing help?

0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:40.520
<v Speaker 1>And I said no, no, I don't have that, like

0:17:40.560 --> 0:17:45.480
<v Speaker 1>it's literally just me. And he knew I'm getting divorced,

0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:51.040
<v Speaker 1>and he said, are you medicating? What medicine are you taking?

0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:55.359
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, shoot, I don't have anything. That

0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:58.760
<v Speaker 1>was my first clue, like, oh my god, Oh my god,

0:17:59.080 --> 0:18:05.680
<v Speaker 1>am I going to be okay? But yeah, so yeah,

0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:12.280
<v Speaker 1>it was definitely tricky being a single parent with five kids.

0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Now a lot of people will say to me, my

0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:17.800
<v Speaker 1>friends will say like, oh, but they're older and the

0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:22.040
<v Speaker 1>older ones will take care of the younger one. I'm like,

0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:25.719
<v Speaker 1>have you met my kids? Oh? Boy? You know, and

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:28.160
<v Speaker 1>it's their spring break. They each want to do their

0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:31.399
<v Speaker 1>own different thing and they do travel as a group.

0:18:31.520 --> 0:18:37.720
<v Speaker 1>But you know Stella immediately, she's very social. She met friends.

0:18:37.800 --> 0:18:41.320
<v Speaker 1>So she had like teen friends the entire time from

0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:45.680
<v Speaker 1>different parts of you know, the country that she met,

0:18:45.800 --> 0:18:48.480
<v Speaker 1>and she would hang out with them and go do stuff.

0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:53.240
<v Speaker 1>And one of our closest friends happened to be there.

0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:56.960
<v Speaker 1>It was her last day there. We got to see

0:18:56.960 --> 0:19:01.399
<v Speaker 1>her the first day and Liam did help. He was

0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:05.520
<v Speaker 1>very helpful and he kind of stuck with me. And

0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:10.879
<v Speaker 1>it was interesting because the legal drinking age there is eighteen,

0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:15.880
<v Speaker 1>so he could legally have his first drink. And I

0:19:15.960 --> 0:19:19.520
<v Speaker 1>was like, he was like, are you okay if I

0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:23.000
<v Speaker 1>try something? I'm like, yeah, of course you're in the Bahamas.

0:19:23.080 --> 0:19:26.920
<v Speaker 1>It's legal, you're eighteen. So he's like, okay, which I get.

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:29.480
<v Speaker 1>He got like I think he got a peanut Colada

0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:33.159
<v Speaker 1>and he was like, this is so weird, mom, Like

0:19:33.600 --> 0:19:36.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm able to drink here and they can gamble, which

0:19:37.080 --> 0:19:41.840
<v Speaker 1>we didn't do. But it's interesting because legally they can't

0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:46.639
<v Speaker 1>drive there till they're eighteen, but they can drink and

0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:51.640
<v Speaker 1>gamble at eighteen, and here we can't drink gamble till

0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:55.760
<v Speaker 1>we're twenty one, but you can drive at sixteen. So anyway,

0:19:56.160 --> 0:20:00.800
<v Speaker 1>little facts, fun facts. Hattie when in ocean a lot.

0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:06.760
<v Speaker 1>She loves snorkeling. She loved seeing all the fishes and

0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:11.520
<v Speaker 1>doing that. Finn did the water park. I did. We

0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:15.920
<v Speaker 1>did have a cabana and I had to I took

0:20:15.960 --> 0:20:21.720
<v Speaker 1>photos multiple times to be like, uh, guys, the scenery's great,

0:20:21.800 --> 0:20:24.160
<v Speaker 1>so you can look out, but if you're on your

0:20:24.400 --> 0:20:28.720
<v Speaker 1>devices here in the defeats the whole purpose. Like we

0:20:28.760 --> 0:20:31.520
<v Speaker 1>could have stayed home, you know, and put up on

0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:36.000
<v Speaker 1>the TV, like the TV screen like an island picture,

0:20:36.200 --> 0:20:41.920
<v Speaker 1>like it's beautiful out there, like go and one day

0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:46.359
<v Speaker 1>the butler at the cabana. She was telling me. She

0:20:46.520 --> 0:20:49.520
<v Speaker 1>was like, so, she's like, you guys, you have to

0:20:49.520 --> 0:20:52.080
<v Speaker 1>get off your devices and tablets like and phones like

0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:54.800
<v Speaker 1>and go out and do stuff. And she's like, you know,

0:20:55.400 --> 0:20:57.560
<v Speaker 1>when your mom and I were young, because she's fifty,

0:20:58.119 --> 0:21:00.720
<v Speaker 1>and she said, when we were young, we didn't have

0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:03.359
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. And she's like, especially, you know, I grew

0:21:03.400 --> 0:21:07.359
<v Speaker 1>up here on the island and there was nothing, and

0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:10.240
<v Speaker 1>our parents would say, you know, get up in the

0:21:10.280 --> 0:21:12.840
<v Speaker 1>morning and they'd be cleaning the house and they'd say

0:21:12.920 --> 0:21:17.000
<v Speaker 1>go out, and we'd have to go outdoors and you know,

0:21:17.160 --> 0:21:20.119
<v Speaker 1>make friends with lizards and make our own toys and

0:21:20.200 --> 0:21:24.760
<v Speaker 1>climb trees and you know, have fun outdoors and we

0:21:24.800 --> 0:21:27.280
<v Speaker 1>couldn't come back in until it was like the sun

0:21:27.400 --> 0:21:32.480
<v Speaker 1>was setting. And then she said, but she said the

0:21:32.600 --> 0:21:35.880
<v Speaker 1>highlight was at this time when she was growing up.

0:21:36.280 --> 0:21:41.600
<v Speaker 1>She said, we had one TV channel, and that one

0:21:41.680 --> 0:21:44.919
<v Speaker 1>TV channel and it didn't start. TV didn't come on

0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:48.920
<v Speaker 1>till five PM. She said, So growing up, like kids

0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:51.840
<v Speaker 1>would be like, oh my gosh, we don't like have

0:21:51.920 --> 0:21:54.840
<v Speaker 1>clocks and stuff, so we don't know and we see

0:21:54.880 --> 0:21:57.360
<v Speaker 1>the sun start to go down and we're like, oh,

0:21:57.960 --> 0:22:00.639
<v Speaker 1>is it almost time. Is it almost time? And we

0:22:00.760 --> 0:22:03.280
<v Speaker 1>go in and you're allowed to watch TV from five

0:22:03.359 --> 0:22:07.040
<v Speaker 1>to eight pm, and she said I would always watch

0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:09.320
<v Speaker 1>nine oh two one zero and I said, oh my gosh,

0:22:09.600 --> 0:22:13.000
<v Speaker 1>thank you so much. She goes that. She goes, and

0:22:13.040 --> 0:22:16.639
<v Speaker 1>my other favorite show, she goes, I Love you a lot,

0:22:17.040 --> 0:22:20.320
<v Speaker 1>she goes, but my favorite was Punky Brewster and I said,

0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:23.080
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, Sole Moonfries one of my closest friends.

0:22:23.880 --> 0:22:27.600
<v Speaker 1>I said, so I texted Sole and Karne was her

0:22:27.680 --> 0:22:30.680
<v Speaker 1>name in the exchanged texts, and Karine was like, oh

0:22:30.680 --> 0:22:35.399
<v Speaker 1>my gosh, I can't believe this. Super excited, but it

0:22:35.480 --> 0:22:39.240
<v Speaker 1>was just so interesting that it's so different for us.

0:22:39.320 --> 0:22:42.120
<v Speaker 1>And I was hoping the kids were hearing this and

0:22:42.200 --> 0:22:48.359
<v Speaker 1>like and then she goes to Bo. She goes and Finn.

0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:52.160
<v Speaker 1>She was like, so do you guys know marbles? And

0:22:52.800 --> 0:22:55.080
<v Speaker 1>Bo was like, I know marbles and she's like, you do,

0:22:55.280 --> 0:22:58.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm impressed. So you do know games and getting outdoors

0:22:58.400 --> 0:23:03.520
<v Speaker 1>and playing stuff, And he goes, I know marbles. They

0:23:03.560 --> 0:23:06.320
<v Speaker 1>played it in squid games and if you didn't play

0:23:06.359 --> 0:23:12.320
<v Speaker 1>it right, you died. Like yep, there you go. So

0:23:13.680 --> 0:23:17.200
<v Speaker 1>that's how he knew about marbles. Interesting. So anyway, that

0:23:17.320 --> 0:23:20.400
<v Speaker 1>was one of the games and squid games, play marbles

0:23:20.440 --> 0:23:32.800
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, anyway, I have a question. Yes, if you

0:23:32.840 --> 0:23:38.040
<v Speaker 1>don't mind, please the butler. Uh huh.

0:23:38.320 --> 0:23:41.760
<v Speaker 2>I pictured the butler just sort of being on call

0:23:42.320 --> 0:23:44.320
<v Speaker 2>near your room.

0:23:43.920 --> 0:23:46.639
<v Speaker 1>But you said the butler was also at the pool.

0:23:46.800 --> 0:23:49.280
<v Speaker 2>So was the butler just following you around wherever you

0:23:49.320 --> 0:23:52.120
<v Speaker 2>guys went, like in a butler outfit holding.

0:23:51.760 --> 0:23:56.400
<v Speaker 1>A tray kind of thing. Like what I got understand?

0:23:57.280 --> 0:23:59.760
<v Speaker 1>You just said that I felt so shamed because of

0:23:59.800 --> 0:24:02.840
<v Speaker 1>my childhood. Like I want to like get defensive and

0:24:02.880 --> 0:24:07.880
<v Speaker 1>be like, no, no, we didn't have that. Yes, yes

0:24:08.200 --> 0:24:16.399
<v Speaker 1>you do. That's crazy but awesome. So they have the

0:24:16.440 --> 0:24:21.480
<v Speaker 1>butler service, like in your tower and you go on

0:24:21.800 --> 0:24:26.720
<v Speaker 1>WhatsApp and you have a group chat with everybody. So

0:24:27.440 --> 0:24:31.560
<v Speaker 1>it was hold on with everybody in your group or

0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:35.120
<v Speaker 1>everybody in the tower. No, you get a group chat

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:41.320
<v Speaker 1>and they titled it uh Tory's Family Vacation and it

0:24:41.400 --> 0:24:44.919
<v Speaker 1>was I was on it, Liam Stella, Hattie and Finn

0:24:46.000 --> 0:24:50.240
<v Speaker 1>and all of the butlers and people that worked in

0:24:50.280 --> 0:24:54.360
<v Speaker 1>the lounge in Atlantis. Everyone could pipe in so if

0:24:54.359 --> 0:24:59.359
<v Speaker 1>we ever needed anything or had questions, you know, reservations

0:24:59.359 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 1>for dinner, the like that we could ask in the chat.

0:25:03.520 --> 0:25:07.560
<v Speaker 1>But then at the pool, if you have a cabana,

0:25:08.280 --> 0:25:14.679
<v Speaker 1>they have butler service at the cabana. So there's like

0:25:15.119 --> 0:25:20.119
<v Speaker 1>room butlers and pool butlers. Does that make sense? It does?

0:25:22.040 --> 0:25:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah and yeah. And the first day I was like,

0:25:27.080 --> 0:25:33.760
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, poor fifth child. Yeah, poor, he's so spoiled.

0:25:35.560 --> 0:25:40.479
<v Speaker 1>He only has one bathing suit and he had outgrown it.

0:25:40.800 --> 0:25:43.000
<v Speaker 1>And I said, you know what, don't worry. We're going

0:25:43.040 --> 0:25:46.120
<v Speaker 1>to the Bahamas. We're going to Atlantis. They have everything.

0:25:46.800 --> 0:25:50.840
<v Speaker 1>It's like the shopping mecca there. Don't worry. We can

0:25:50.880 --> 0:25:55.600
<v Speaker 1>get a bathing suit. And he said, okay, okay. So

0:25:55.880 --> 0:26:00.240
<v Speaker 1>the first day I said on the WhatsApp group chat

0:26:00.320 --> 0:26:03.600
<v Speaker 1>with the butlers, I said, excuse me, I said, Bow

0:26:03.840 --> 0:26:08.119
<v Speaker 1>needs a bathing suit. Could you tell me where a

0:26:08.200 --> 0:26:10.719
<v Speaker 1>store is located that I can go down and get it.

0:26:11.600 --> 0:26:14.040
<v Speaker 1>And they said, oh no, no, no, we'll go for

0:26:14.280 --> 0:26:17.439
<v Speaker 1>you and we'll take photos and send to you. I

0:26:17.480 --> 0:26:22.359
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh my gosh, this is amazing. I said,

0:26:22.400 --> 0:26:26.320
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh. It was Dion, our butler. Dion. I said, okay, great,

0:26:27.080 --> 0:26:30.720
<v Speaker 1>So he takes photos and he has them all laid

0:26:30.760 --> 0:26:35.760
<v Speaker 1>out size eight of all the swim trunks, and I

0:26:35.880 --> 0:26:39.240
<v Speaker 1>showed Bone, we're zooming in on the photo and you

0:26:39.240 --> 0:26:41.240
<v Speaker 1>want to look, you want to look, and he picks one.

0:26:41.359 --> 0:26:45.679
<v Speaker 1>I said, okay, great, awesome. So I picked the swim

0:26:45.720 --> 0:26:48.480
<v Speaker 1>trunks and I said, is there a swim shirt to

0:26:48.520 --> 0:26:54.359
<v Speaker 1>go with it? Yes? Me being me, I didn't ask

0:26:54.400 --> 0:26:57.960
<v Speaker 1>any questions. So he brings up the bag and I

0:26:58.040 --> 0:27:03.960
<v Speaker 1>immediately see it's like a designer bag, and I'm like,

0:27:04.320 --> 0:27:07.520

<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, bad on me that I didn't ask.

0:27:29.119 --> 0:27:32.040

<v Speaker 1>remember when, like back in the day and we had

0:27:37.040 --> 0:27:40.639

0:30:14.880 --> 0:30:17.240
<v Speaker 1>he was fine. He loved it, and then the older

0:30:17.360 --> 0:30:20.880
<v Speaker 1>kids went on one that's one hundred and eight foot drop.

0:30:22.040 --> 0:30:26.680
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh my gosh. Meanwhile, like what mom. Here,

0:30:27.000 --> 0:30:31.840
<v Speaker 1>I go on the rapid rivers and it was like

0:30:32.760 --> 0:30:36.400
<v Speaker 1>the Lazy River. And there's like one thing where you

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:38.640
<v Speaker 1>get to on your inner tube. BO and I are

0:30:39.160 --> 0:30:42.760
<v Speaker 1>in a double inner two and you get to it

0:30:42.840 --> 0:30:46.600
<v Speaker 1>and it like slowly goes down on a mechanical hill,

0:30:46.760 --> 0:30:50.520
<v Speaker 1>like you there. It wasn't like a whoosh slide, It

0:30:50.680 --> 0:30:55.200
<v Speaker 1>just slowly goes down. I screamed so loud. Bo's like, mom,

0:30:55.440 --> 0:31:00.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm like that's weird. So anyway, so that happened. So

0:31:00.920 --> 0:31:05.080
<v Speaker 1>the water park, huge hit, pool, huge hit. I made

0:31:05.160 --> 0:31:09.800
<v Speaker 1>friends at the adult bar. I was like, I really

0:31:09.800 --> 0:31:12.080
<v Speaker 1>didn't get any like me time, Like I was with

0:31:12.120 --> 0:31:15.480
<v Speaker 1>the kids the entire time, and I felt guilty. Oh

0:31:15.480 --> 0:31:18.040
<v Speaker 1>my gosh. I did have a moment though. I took

0:31:18.080 --> 0:31:21.760
<v Speaker 1>a picture where Stella and I we both had full

0:31:21.840 --> 0:31:30.200
<v Speaker 1>sunscreen on seventy and we laid out on lounge chairs

0:31:30.240 --> 0:31:33.720
<v Speaker 1>together on our tummies. I haven't done that. I haven't

0:31:33.800 --> 0:31:37.479
<v Speaker 1>laid out like since I was in my twenties, like

0:31:38.080 --> 0:31:39.880
<v Speaker 1>because I was having kids, Like you don't have a

0:31:39.920 --> 0:31:43.600
<v Speaker 1>moment to lay out. And we laid down on two

0:31:43.640 --> 0:31:47.120
<v Speaker 1>lounge chairs on the sand and had the best time.

0:31:47.280 --> 0:31:49.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean it was only for like twenty minutes, but

0:31:49.160 --> 0:31:52.120
<v Speaker 1>I was like, this is such a bonding moment. And

0:31:52.360 --> 0:31:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm proud to say that. Everyone calls me a hoarder,

0:31:56.480 --> 0:32:00.280
<v Speaker 1>but I'm a collector. Thank goodness, I kept all of

0:32:01.000 --> 0:32:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Now they're back in my juicy couture and ed hardy

0:32:04.840 --> 0:32:08.440
<v Speaker 1>bikinis from the nineties because Stella wears them all, which

0:32:08.480 --> 0:32:12.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm super proud. But I forgot bathing suits as well,

0:32:13.160 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, I'm not going to buy one here,

0:32:15.760 --> 0:32:19.200
<v Speaker 1>and Stella's like, oh, I have yours. So I put

0:32:19.240 --> 0:32:21.920
<v Speaker 1>back on my juicy bikini from the nineties and I

0:32:21.960 --> 0:32:24.400

0:35:09.239 --> 0:35:13.560
<v Speaker 1>shells and everything. And Ruthan's gonna hate that, she hates

0:35:13.600 --> 0:35:16.480
<v Speaker 1>the poop talk, but it was coming out of both ends,

0:35:16.680 --> 0:35:22.520
<v Speaker 1>and I was like sitting there diarrhea and I'm throwing

0:35:22.600 --> 0:35:24.719
<v Speaker 1>up in the trash can, and I was like, you

0:35:24.760 --> 0:35:29.480
<v Speaker 1>know what, positive note, I'm in the Bahamas. I'm here

0:35:29.520 --> 0:35:31.880
<v Speaker 1>and it's beautiful, and I'm in a sheet cabana, So

0:35:32.280 --> 0:35:35.760
<v Speaker 1>if it could happen anywhere, it's happening here. And then

0:35:36.840 --> 0:35:40.040
<v Speaker 1>we had all these amazing dinners. We got to go

0:35:40.120 --> 0:35:43.480
<v Speaker 1>to Nobu and conk is the big thing there, Like

0:35:43.920 --> 0:35:46.799
<v Speaker 1>they have their version of conk everywhere that's like their

0:35:46.920 --> 0:35:50.759
<v Speaker 1>local and so we had conk many different ways, many

0:35:50.800 --> 0:35:54.200
<v Speaker 1>different places, and went to Nobu. That was a highlight

0:35:54.400 --> 0:35:59.640
<v Speaker 1>because we love sushi and the kids were super excited.

0:36:00.360 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 1>And then we had Easter, so we flew out on

0:36:03.640 --> 0:36:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Easter Sunday at night on a connecting flight, but we

0:36:08.600 --> 0:36:12.040
<v Speaker 1>got to celebrate Easter there and both was like, but

0:36:12.080 --> 0:36:14.200
<v Speaker 1>the Easter Bundy's not going to come. I'm like, dude,

0:36:14.239 --> 0:36:17.960
<v Speaker 1>you're in the Bahamas. The Easter Bunny travels the world.

0:36:18.120 --> 0:36:21.040
<v Speaker 1>He's going to know you're here. So I said, did

0:36:21.040 --> 0:36:23.200
<v Speaker 1>they have an Easter egg hunt here? And they said

0:36:23.200 --> 0:36:26.600
<v Speaker 1>it's in the rapid rivers and I was like, oh cool.

0:36:27.600 --> 0:36:29.600
<v Speaker 1>And I was like okay, Bo, let's go. So they

0:36:29.600 --> 0:36:32.600
<v Speaker 1>had different age groups because what they do is you

0:36:32.640 --> 0:36:35.440
<v Speaker 1>go on your you know, floats, inner tubes down the

0:36:35.560 --> 0:36:40.000
<v Speaker 1>rapid Lazy River and they toss in foam eggs. They

0:36:40.000 --> 0:36:42.239
<v Speaker 1>give the kids a bag, they fill it up, and

0:36:42.239 --> 0:36:43.960
<v Speaker 1>then at the end they give it back and they

0:36:44.000 --> 0:36:47.840
<v Speaker 1>give them a bag of candy. So they're they're pretty

0:36:48.040 --> 0:36:53.040
<v Speaker 1>hard foam eggs. And we're going down and Bo's like, look, look,

0:36:53.040 --> 0:36:55.200
<v Speaker 1>and he's so excited. He's like, this is the best

0:36:55.200 --> 0:36:59.839
<v Speaker 1>Easter ever. And he's collecting eggs. And then I see

0:37:00.000 --> 0:37:02.600
<v Speaker 1>the older kids and I was like, okay, no, no, no,

0:37:02.640 --> 0:37:05.040
<v Speaker 1>we're here in this age group. And I noticed the

0:37:05.080 --> 0:37:10.200
<v Speaker 1>older kids because they're chucking these foamags, which they hurt,

0:37:10.680 --> 0:37:13.120
<v Speaker 1>and they're chucking them with the little kids and they're

0:37:13.160 --> 0:37:16.360
<v Speaker 1>hitting bow in the head. And I'm like, okay, I

0:37:16.400 --> 0:37:19.480
<v Speaker 1>look at this kid, and I said, excuse me. And

0:37:19.520 --> 0:37:21.799
<v Speaker 1>I won't speak up for myself, but Mama bear are

0:37:21.800 --> 0:37:24.920
<v Speaker 1>always for my kid. I said, excuse me, excuse me.

0:37:25.080 --> 0:37:27.239
<v Speaker 1>I said, you just hit my son in the head.

0:37:27.320 --> 0:37:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Would you mind not doing that again? And he was

0:37:30.640 --> 0:37:35.520
<v Speaker 1>like okay, bro, and I was like, one, I'm not

0:37:35.560 --> 0:37:38.600
<v Speaker 1>your fucking bro, and two, don't hit my kid in

0:37:38.600 --> 0:37:40.000
<v Speaker 1>the head. But I was like, I didn't say anything.

0:37:40.040 --> 0:37:42.880
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I was like, okay, thank you so much.

0:37:43.400 --> 0:37:47.920
<v Speaker 1>And he proceeds to keep doing it. So I'm like, okay, okay.

0:37:48.320 --> 0:37:50.640
<v Speaker 1>I was at the breaking point. And this kid, he

0:37:50.719 --> 0:37:53.440
<v Speaker 1>has to be like sixteen, seventeen eighteen. I don't know

0:37:53.480 --> 0:37:56.520
<v Speaker 1>why he and his friends were even in there. They

0:37:56.600 --> 0:38:00.439
<v Speaker 1>must have slipped in because security's really great there, and

0:38:01.120 --> 0:38:04.279
<v Speaker 1>I like paddle up to him, catch up to him,

0:38:04.320 --> 0:38:06.080
<v Speaker 1>and by the time I get there, He's now looking

0:38:06.080 --> 0:38:10.040
<v Speaker 1>at me, and I said, really quietly, I said, come here,

0:38:10.120 --> 0:38:14.320
<v Speaker 1>come here, and I said, bo earmuffs, and I said,

0:38:15.680 --> 0:38:18.360
<v Speaker 1>you hit my kid in the head with a foam

0:38:18.360 --> 0:38:21.440
<v Speaker 1>egg one more time, and I'm going to come back

0:38:21.560 --> 0:38:24.560
<v Speaker 1>and I'm gonna fucking throat punch you. And he looked

0:38:24.560 --> 0:38:28.480
<v Speaker 1>at me and he goes understood and he stopped. So

0:38:28.520 --> 0:38:31.000
<v Speaker 1>it was a mom will win. So that was the

0:38:31.040 --> 0:38:34.400
<v Speaker 1>wrap up of our easter. We got on a plane.

0:38:35.320 --> 0:38:37.799
<v Speaker 1>The kids were like, oh my god, we didn't get souvenirs.

0:38:37.840 --> 0:38:39.320

0:38:55.440 --> 0:38:57.279
<v Speaker 1>And you know, I have no ego. I don't ever

0:38:57.320 --> 0:39:02.920
