Here – There – Everywhere Field Trip

(sorry for the late upload)

I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO SPEND A WEEK DRIVING EVERYWHERE WITH MY FAMILY- MY HUSBAND, 9 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, 6 YEAR OLD, MY MUM AND YOURS TRULY (MOI)-

SO THIS WAS A SURPRISE TO MY FAMILY FROM ME-

OUR DAY WENT LIKE THIS-

ME: So everyone, I am taking you guys to a field trip. It also requires that you pack up some of your junk so wherever we go, everyone look and smells clean.

EVERYONE: Where are we going? And for how long are we gone? (screaming with delight)

ME: Just enough clothes for three days- (hmmm, wondering just how/what will they do when they find out where I’m taking them)-

TO MAKE THE STORY SHORT, EVERYONE WENT TO BED EARLY THAT NIGHT-

DAY ONE

MY HUSBAND AND I LOADED THAT RENTAL SUV THE NIGHT BEFORE. WHEN THE KIDS AND MUM CAME OUTSIDE THEY ALL THOUGHT WE WERE TAKING MY RIDE-

ME: OK EVERYONE WE ARE WALKING TO OUR DESTINATION. (smiling at their shocked faces)

EVERYONE: WHAT? WHY ARE WE WALKING?

ME: (I just couldn’t help it) OK, SINCE YOU’RE ALL GOOD. I GUESS YOU CAN RIDE WITH ME. LET’S ALL HOP INTO THIS NEW AND RENTED SUV- LET’S GO!!!

EVERYONE: (screaming with excitement) THIS IS SUPER COOL-

WE’RE ALL LOADED AND READY TO GO-

HOURS HAS PASSED AND FOUR DVDS WERE WATCHED. KIDS ARE NOW TIRED OF SITTING AND COOPED INSIDE THE ROOMY SUV- MUM ENJOYING HER TUNES AND DROWNING OUT THE KIDS COMPLAINTS. LIFE IS GOOD-

FINALLY, AT LONG LAST. AFTER ALL THE DEAD CARCASSES WE’VE PASSED BY, FUMES FROM INDUSTRIAL AREAS AND FARMLANDS… WE FINALLY MADE IT HERE-

VEGAS NEVADA, CIRCUS CIRCUS!!!

IT IS THREE O’CLOCK IN THE MORNING AND THE KIDS WERE ASLEEP. MUM WAS SNORING AND MY HUSBAND IS EXHAUSTED. AT LONG LAST, WE MADE IT HERE. JUST THEN, I COULD FEEL MY BODY COMPLAINING AS WELL-

TOMORROW WILL BE ANOTHER DAY AND DEFINITELY WE WILL HAVE ALL THE FUN IN THE WORLD-

DAY TWO

WE ALL WOKE UP LATER IN THE MORNING. WE ALL HAD BRUNCH AND WENT OUT TO EXPLORE WHAT THIS BUILDING HAS TO OFFER- OUTSIDE IS TOO HOT, OH MY!

KIDS AND MUM DECIDED TO STAY INDOORS OF THE CASINO. WHILE HUBBY AND ME SELF GALLIVANTED ALONG THE STRIP. WELL, WE ENDED UP AT THIS REPTILE STORE. SO I ENDED UP BUYING HIM ONE OF THE SNAKE HE WANTED THERE-

THAT NIGHT, WE STROLLED THE STRIP AND TOOK PHOTOS. WE LASTED ABOUT AN HOUR AND CALLED THE NIGHT IN- THE STRIP IS BEAUTIFULLY LIT. WE WERE JUST EXHAUSTED FROM THE TRIP OUR BODIES NEEDED MORE REST.

DAY THREE

IT WAS TIME TO SAY GOODBYE TO VEGAS- WE ARE HEADED TO SUNNY CALIFORNIA-

ALONG THE WAY, WE STOPPED HERE. AND BOY DID WE ENJOY IT-

ALIEN FRESH JERKY – AREA 51

WHO KNEW THIS PLACE EXIST! SO WE DROVE ABOUT AN HOUR AND KEPT SEEING THIS BILLBOARD ABOUT A HUGE PLACE FOR JERKY. IT JUST HAPPENS EVERYONE IN THE SUV LOVES JERKY. SO, EXPLORING THIS AREA 51 WAS THE ULTIMATE DECISION.

AND THIS IS WHAT WE FOUND THERE-

WELL A SIMPLE NAME PLATE-

THE ARRAY OF JERKY WE ALL DECIDED TO PURCHASE

ONE OF THE BEST TASTING ROASTED NUTS IN THIS MARKET-

MY KIDS AND I ENJOYED THEIR COLLECTION OF ALIENS AND ROBOTICS-

THIS ONE’S SUPER COOL, UNFORTUNATELY WE COULDN’T RIDE IN THE BACK WITH THESE COOL LOOKING ALIENS-

PER MUMS REQUEST.. TAKE PICS OF THEM PLEASE-

HERE’S ANOTHER COLLECTION-

SON’T FORGET THE BRAIN DRINKS-

 

THIS PLACE ISN’T THAT BAD AT ALL-

• • •

IT WASN’T A BAD FIELD TRIP AFTERALL. WE MADE IT BACK HOME THE NEXT DAY. WE STAYED IN CALIFORNIA FOR THE NIGHT. WE DROVE HOME SLOW AND STILL GOT A SPEEDING TICKET. HOWEVER, IT STILL WAS A FUN AND LONG TRIP ALTOGETHER-

HOW ABOUT YOU? HAVE YOU HAD A FIELD TRIP WITH FAMILY LATELY?

THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY-
