Mood: 11% Happy, 89% Tired
Listening to: “Hero” by Skillet
Okay, I’m wracking my brain as to how to phrase this… Clearly, I’m tired, so my writing may be of less quality than usual. Please bear with me. Q.Q
Just left the hotel~! <3 We are back on the road once again! This time, we are heading to St. Louis, Missouri. :3 Excited! But of course, that excitement is overshadowed by the fact that I’M DEAD TIRED. =_=;;; We finally rolled into the hotel around 12:45-ish. I fell asleep as soon as I hit the bed. (Actually, the ‘time limit’ was really the limit of my perseverance and exhaustion). Canada slept well, that’s for sure. He fell asleep around 11:30-ish. (I am having way too much fun with this) However, all of us are up and ready to keep driving! 8D (Yeah, we’re driving as I’m typing this up on Word) Report back to you later!
- Effingham, Illinois - 8:47 AM
I hate repeating phrases. But I have to. =_=;; Just passed the world’s largest cross. I mean, I think it was sorta cool. :P I only way it for like two minutes. My camera for some reason got switched to video mode, so instead of two pictures, I have two videos. FAIL. >.<;;
- Vandalia, Illinois – 9:21 AM
Today I saw a dragon breathing fire. Coolest thing ever? I think so. MLIA. Okay, so it wasn’t a real dragon, it was a steel one. But it was still sight. You put a token in and it BREATHES FIRE. I got a picture of Mattie by the dragon’s “warning sign” but he was too scared to go and see it actually breathe fire. But I did get pictures of it~ :D You know what, I think that I’ll put all of the pictures in a Pisca album or something because I can’t embed more than one picture in a post. :P Don’t worry, if I can’t get the pictures to work in a post, I’ll caption them. :3 Or better yet, just have a whole world dedicated to pictures only. XD Each title the caption? I’ll have to see about that. That could work!
- St. Louis, Missouri – 10:14 AM
I’m sure that you can figure out where we are touring here. :3 It’s not all that hard. St. Louis Arch. He’s really tall. @.@ We got tickets to go all the way to the top, too. :3 Canada will be fine~ I’m sure of it. :3 PICTURES GALORE.
- 1:40 PM
It wasn’t just the arch that we saw, but also the COOLEST arch ever. :3 Nothing against the Gateway Arch, but I think the Whispering Arch in Union Station was just a bit cooler. =) I mean, what’s cooler than an arch where you and a friend are facing opposite sides of the arch, you whisper to each other, and you can hear them clearly! It’s awesome!!! I did like the ride to the top of the Gateway Arch though. It was like a Ferris wheel combined with a roller coaster. :3 Kinda cool, kinda relaxing at the same time. We stopped for lunch at a really good Italian restaurant called “Caleco’s” downtown. I love their pizza! If you know what Ledo’s pizza is, think of that pizza, but in a circle.
- Hazelwood, Missouri – 3:10 PM
Bigfoot is apparently the original monster truck. We just saw it. It was HUGE. o.o Or at least the tires were. I had to get my brother to point to where Canada was in order to take the picture. o.o Next stop, Largest Ball of String. XD I’m looking forward to that more so than anything.
- Weston, Missouri – 8:00 PM
That was so entertaining. I LOVED the giant ball of string!!! 8D My kitten instincts kicked in and I wanted so badly to toss it around! Of course, it was too big to actually move it, but still.
Before that, we went to “Arthur Bryant’s Bar-B-Que” for dinner. Fair warning, the portions are HUGE. They defiantly don’t skimp on the meat. I could barely finish HALF of a ham sandwich. o.o I mean, THAT’S how large it was. And their small size drinks were the size of any other restaurant’s medium AT LEAST. Still, it was wonderful! =D
- St. Joseph, Missouri – 9:45 PM
I’m actually posting this up early because we got to the hotel at 9:30 instead of 12:30. @.@ Well, I doubt anything will happen after this, so I’ll just stop here for today and wait to start up again tomorrow! ^.^/
See ya later~!
