Aaanyway, I better start off this post by wishing my mother a very happy 37th birthday! Don't question the age, just accept it. Blogging on her birthday reminds me that 4 years ago I was doing the same thing, from Kenya! Wow, talk about time flying.
Okay, okay, I promise I will get to the meat of this post, just bear with me. Leavenworth, a United States prison in Kansas. While I might have the chance to tour that place someday (hopefully for the RIGHT reasons), I think it's atmosphere would be quite different from the Leavenworth I toured with my friends last weekend.
I have actually posted about Leavenworth (the non-prison one) before when I took a tour with family in January 2011. We trudged through snow and slush to visit shops and spend money I didn't have. This time was much better weather wise... but I still don't have any money.
We started the day late and only managed to catch a few shops before they closed, but have no fear, I still managed to spend L's money. Our friends Kevin and Shelly made the trip with us and we all had a blast. After the shops closed, we caught some live music, had a few drinks and played the most ridiculous game of ping pong you can imagine. I must note though that I won.
L's restaurant.
The soon-to-be bride who collected hugs from all the men. I promise, there was a real person there, this is just a depiction.
Told ya.
All in all, definitely worth the trip. If you ever visit Washington, make sure to put this stop on your list!
