Yesterday was fun and crazy and full of CHRISTmas. Oh yeah, that's how the spell it where we went yesterday.

I got up around 6, went out around 7 and put gas in the truck and grabbed bagels for everyone. Got back, and once B was up, we started final packing. We decided to leave everything there until we got back from our day trip since I didn't want to leave stuff in the back of the truck where someone could steal it or it could get wet. We went out around 10:30 and first went over to her other grandparent's house to say goodbyes. We then picked up her friend and headed out to Frankenmuth. It's one of those Bavarian style towns with shops and 'authentic' stuff but the big draw is a store called Bronners. It's the world's largest CHRISTmas store. Emphasis theirs, not mine. They have so many Jesus displays it's ridiculous. They do ship so we bought some stuff and it is on the way. Should hit home around the same time we do.

We had 'world famous chicken dinner' around 1:30 which lasted until 3. It's an all you can eat affair with chicken and noodles and cottage cheese and pate and dessert and oh my I am going to explode. It was great but holy crap were we all full after. We then wandered around the shops for a while and headed back around 4. On the way back we stopped at the hotel and checked in. This way we didn't have to deal with check in with all our stuff and B's friend got to see where the hotel is located. They are hanging out all day today and she is picking her up here.

Dropped off friend, hit grandparent's house for luggage and goodbyes, headed back to the hotel. We got settled in around 6:30. We have a two room suite which should work for me for training. We shall find out in about 5 hours. Yes, I have to train from 10-6 est. I fucking hate those hours. Since everyone in my class but one is est I am going to see if we can bump it up a couple of hours.

Relaxed, finished a book, went to bed around 11. Only 3 more days.
