This weekend we went to Gainesville to visit Chris and Stephanie. We left on Friday and went straight there, and then stayed over night. We were hoping that Steph would finally pop, but instead we got to play with their other new baby. We basically spent all Friday night playing Wii Sports and Mario Party [...]
I recently listened to the audio books called the His Dark Materials Trilogy by Phillip Pullman, of which The Golden Compass is the first book. The movie of the first book comes out today, and it is already stirring controversy. Many religious organizations are getting up in arms about the themes of it, and more [...]
And here are the photos from our day at the National Mall…
If we knew then what we know now… He’s us leaving the Jefferson Memorial. Tragedy + Time = … Comedy!
Well, it doesn’t take long for memory to fade. We have been home for less than a week, and already the details are starting to get foggy. Its a good thing that I took pictures and video. Since I mention it, here is a description of the stuff that I didn’t earlier in my blog [...]
Ya… So here is what happened. This morning we figured that we would go to a few of the monuments before we headed out since we had a LITTLE time, and we didn’t get to see everything that we wanted to. Well, Bionca was driving (as she did the whole time in Washington and did [...]
Tired… Hungry… Tickets… Mehhh…
Lots of pictures today, but it is late. Instead here is an overview.
Too lazy to type. One thing that I forgot was how nice our Thanksgiving dinner was. America the Restaurant was really nice, and we are thinking about going back. Anyway… on to the video.
I spent WAY too long working on this photo montage… More info tomorrow. Damn, Blogger takes a long time to process videos. So… sleepy…
After we checked into the hotel, we had to get something to eat. As I said, we tried to find the Ethiopian restaurant, but the roads around here are insane. I have never driven in a place that has so many loops and turns in my life. After getting hopelessly lost, we decided to just [...]
We are almost there, but we need to take a break, which gives us an opportunity to collect a souvenir.
Well, it is the busiest travel day of the year…
Here we are entering Richmond. So far so good.
Bionca gives his perspective while driving. Shouldn’t she be watching the road?
This is one of those pleasant coincidences.
While in the car, I was treated to a concert. By popular demand, here is an excerpt…
The leaves on the trees in Charleston were beautiful, but as we traveled north it just got better… Little did I know that this was just the start.
Well, we checked into the hotel, and it is in a really neat location. I can look out the window and see the Air Force Memorial (well the top of it, as I can mostly see a roof). We are staying at the Sheraton. Personally, I prefer the La Quinta. The room is a little [...]
We had a long day in Charleston today. We got up pretty early so that we could get breakfast in the lobby of the La Quinta where we are staying. (La Quinta really has the best hotel breakfasts.) From there we went to downtown Charleston where we started out at the Visitor’s Center. I was [...]
Well, we ate at Ruby Tuesday, went to WalMart and now I am sitting here on the computer while watching Heroes. So much for getting out of the routine. Anyway, here is the video that I took while on our way here.
Well, here we are. We are now in Charleston, SC. We are staying in the La Quinta listed here.The drive wasn’t bad. I drove for the first three hours, and then Bionca drove for the next two. The nice thing is that we are ahead of Google by an hour! (Great time). When we checked [...]
Well, this is not the vacation that we planned. The plan was that we were going to go on a cruise from Sunday until Friday, but that was messed up due to the fact that I got sick. Yep, I even had to go home early on Thursday because I was feeling miserable. (I had [...]
