Today (well yesterday, read it in that sense) we’re going about two hours out of town to another city for a riverwalk, a boat ride, and a museum, plus restaurants and stuff.
I woke up, dressed, did my hair, and ate some pancakes. I then checked the People magazine site, two forums, and MLIA before putting on my tennis shoes and getting the mail. Now we’re in the car, chillin’. Imma put mah music in and start the minute update thing again. : D

………….
After everyone got out of the car, we walked to the main plaza, and then into the Mexican market for a bathroom break and to look around at all the cool stuff in the shops. There were little figures, toys, clothing, art, jewelry, pottery, statues, hats, and other miscellaneous knick-knacks, all colorful. :] Here’s some photos of my favorite things that I saw.




I also saw a kid with a Pikachu backpack (JEALOUS). After the market, we walked around in the heat to go to an old historical site. The line to get in was too long, so we didn’t go inside. Instead, we walked straight to the riverwalk area, which is a river running between a bunch of restaurants and hotels and stuff. After walking a bit and crossing a bridge to get to the other side, we found a nice Tex-Mex restaurant, which I’m typing this from right now. I’m waiting for my cheese and bacon covered fries to get here. I don’t mind waiting, though, because the atmosphere is nice. Really lively and colorful, with a nice cross breeze, if you’re sitting outside.
There are tons of chubby pigeons, too.
Our food is here now. :3 Yum.
After eating, we walked around a bit along the river, and then went back to the historical site. We looked around, and then decided to go on a boatride down the river after eating ice-cream. Right now I’m sitting on a ledge in a small indoor shopping area. I’m insanely thirsty, after eating some tasty Dutch chocolate ice-cream. Once everyone is finished eating, we’ll head to the boat tour area. Earlier we saw some cute baby ducks, so here’s a pic of one.

Anywho, everyone is finished, so we’re heading to the boat tour. We got our tickets and some water, and then got onto the boat. Our tour guide was a really nice, bubbly lady. She talked about the historical landmarks we saw on the way.
Once we finished the tour, we walked through the colorful, lively market in the sweltering heat back to the car. Right now I’m sitting here, in the back, about to put my music in. I won’t do minutely updates as I just want to listen to my music (and because my battery is dying xp). So um, adios!
