My Vacation~!

I went on vacation that seemed really short... and yet, really long at the same time.
To be honest, I'm too lazy to really post all about it in detail... because well, a lot happened xD.
However, what I am going to do is show you some of the pictures from my vacation and then explain a little bit through them :D.

In short, I went to six flags a whole crap load of times. My dad won a whole lot of those carnival toys! I can hardly walk on the floor with all these giant toys on the ground xP.
I don't have any pictures from six flags though ^ ^;; sorry.

Afterwards, I went to Washington D.C. and I must say, I loved it ;w;. I've always wanted to visit D.C. when I was kid. //patrism xD.
During our time in D.C., it must be said now that there was a LOT of walking. All the tourist sightes are clumped together. However, they're still quite the distance apart from each other.

This is The Treasury Department. It was one of the first sites we saw while trying to walk to the Washington Monument (which was very far from where we parked ;A;). It's a very important building... or so I assume since it wouldn't let anybody in :\ I liked the statue infront of it though ^^.

I also went to the WWII Memorial. (there's lots of memorials in D.C.

The part of D.C. I went to must be like big on recycling and keeping things clean because there were so many trash cans everywhere. It was crazy! I totally feel bad for the people who are in charge of maintaining the park. They must have so many garbage bags in stock!

 LOL.... this is just a picture of me messing with the Washington Monument... xDD;;. I was at the Lincoln Memorial when I took this. You can see that long stretch of water infront of it (which I do not know the name of... ^^;). I got this from a lady who was standing next by. It was funny because after she kept shouting to her boyfriend "Take a picture of my hand!" several times (quite loudly), everyone decided it was also a good idea. Thereafter, copying her idea xD. /

 Okay, so most people might want to see the White House, or maybe the national Christmas tree (LOL which I thought was completely hilarious! XD Leave it up to the Americans to have a "national" tree for Christmas). However, my family deeply desired to see the Lincoln Memorial! Everyone in my family was dying from walking from our parking space to the Washington Memorial (which wasn't that far, but my family is a bunch of weaklings. I was perfectly fine xP). Despite such "exhaustion", they strived on to keep walking. Why? LOL. because the Lincoln Memorial has appeared in only a ton of movies! XD. //movie fan. Of course, respect for Lincoln himself was implaced into our want to see his statue... :>

My family didn't really get to see the White House. They were all too tired to walk there. Bunch of lazy bums. hmph =3=. LOL. We got to see the back of the White House though... which is better than nothing, I suppose xD.

Visiting D.C. was quite fun! We got to see the Smithsonian too! Or at least part of it. The Smithsonian was too big to see all in one day (we only spent one day in total in D.C. btw). We saw the part with prehistoric animals in it (We got to see Manny, Sid, and Diego! :'D //shot).
Being in Maryland in general was quite amazing all in itself! Maryland is so green and pretty !! Tons and tons of trees! Quite beautiful :')
...the only weird part about Maryland was that I must have passed by like three or more adult stores there >___>......
LOL. The catch phrases/sayings those kinds of stores put up are funny though xD. //can't remember any atm.
 I also went to Hershey's Chocolate World!! :D. I did Chocolate taste testing and actually made my own chocolate bar!! It was a lot of fun, but expensive .___. I also got this really nice Hershey's Sweater ^___^. However, to my family's disappointment, we found out there was a bigger better Hershey place right here in NY. //fail. LOL. Well at least we got to see the original place ;w;. I mean a whole town was built off of Hershey's Chocolate. (you should look up the history of it! It's quite interesting :'D).


I also visited my cousins in Pennsylvania! It was great to see them :'D. I also bought a lot of clothes there //happyyy~. lolool. I really did enjoy seeing them though ^^. My auntie (dad's sister) is an extermely weird person. Well...I mean, we are related xD. She's very blunt and stubborn with her opinions. I love seeing her have sibling arguments with my dad :>.
Oh! And I helped my cousin create her very own blog too!! :D I'm super excited that she started a blog too! You should go visit it by clicking this link
