If there's anything I learned from my family visiting, its that no matter how much time goes by or how far apart you are, when you reunite, everything remains the same. In no time, Katie and I had a handful of brawls and Dad complained about how Mom was attempting to starve him. A little dash of Philip's apathy and we would have had the perfect recipe.
Katie managed to snag Philips virus upon departing for Spain, so needless to say it made for an interesting trip. Once we got to Seville, we headed to the hotel. I could have stayed in this hotel for the next three days and been completely content. No need to see the sights, I'm just going to stay here in my robe and slippers. *
When heading out of the hotel to start our day, 3 vans and a huge Escalade sped up to the hotel door, practically killing Katie and I on the spot. Then I heard an oddly familiar voice..
"I'll call you later"
Wait...it can't be [turn towards the stairs]...
TOM CRUISE
It all happened so fast, by the time I had realized what had just happened, he and Cameron Diaz were already inside. Luckily for my dad, he passed them inside, and from that point on, he was completely starstruck.
"You know that's just great! Cameron, she's just so beautiful...maybe she'll come have a drink in the bar. We should go hang out in the bar" - Phil
Turns out they were also on our floor, and of course, we kept our doors open at all times, hoping for the chance to bump into our lovely new neighbors.
Not a bad way to start off the vacation if you ask me, or better yet, my dad.
