here it is; the texas report
The adventure started at 2:45am on Wednesday morning. Mom and Dad picked me up and we headed to Dulles. Around 6am we boarded the plane. I slept and read for most of the trip to Dallas. The layover was a couple hours, so we ate at TGIFridays. Then we boarded a plane and headed for Houston. Once we arrive, we got our luggage and headed for the car rental area which was a bus ride away. During the ride, it was discovered that we forgot to pick up one of the bags. So we left mom to guard the bags while dad and i went to find the missing bag. It turned out to be pretty easy. The bag was over to the side with a couple of other bags.
So we hooked back up with mom and got our rental car and directions. We showed the hertz lady the directions my cousin had given us. When she saw the highway we were told to take, she said "Oh thats a nice road, someone must care about you to have you take that road." We arrived at the beach house around 3:30. Then we almost immediately went to the newspaper that my cousin Jill works at and got a tour. It was pretty interesting. Then we ate at a mexican restaurant. When we finally got back to the house. I crashed.
The next few days(thursday, friday, saturday, sunday) all run together. Each day was made up of playing cards, reading (3 books), walking on the beach, playing halo on xbox, and sleeping. The only thing that was different was Saturday when we went to see Ray (the movie).
Monday we packed up our stuff and helped sharon clean up. Then we headed back to houston to do some shopping. The outlet mall was pretty much a dud. I didn't find anything worth spending my money on.
We spent the night in a hotel in houston and left the next morning. Around 9 we headed back to the burg. After hours of traveling we ended back up at dulles around 6. There was a lot of traffic and it took forever to get to manassas.
Finally we made it to harrisonburg and my house. The cats were really happy to see me. :) Somehow they had managed to eat 2 weeks of food.
Well that pretty much the trip. Pretty uneventful but in a good way.
