I've returned from my vacation from Mystic Seaport, Connecticut! I went there with UlmightyRed, Blackjack-Crobat, and kittencrazy34.

Yesterday morning, we left a little after 6:30 am, and it was a 2 hour drive. Everything was quite peaceful and everyone was super excited. We had some interesting sea side sights along the way, and we made it there by around 8:30ish? Well, our hotel rooms weren't ready until 3, so we had several sights to see. First stop was Mystic Seaport, and it seemed like a quaint little historic town. There was lots of boats, old fashioned shops, a planetarium which was the most modern thing there, then we stopped for lunch. After that we browsed around some more, and went into houses that teach us how boats are made. We were done after several hours, then we went to Mystic Aquarium.

Parking for the aquarium was pretty difficult since all spots were full, and for good reason; it was HUGE! They had everything, a bird petting zoo area, penguins, beluga whales, frogs, Fish (duh), blue lobsters, seals, and sea lions. They even had a walkout nature area which is part of the zoo as well. I did have trouble navigating the aquarium, since my camera strap kept getting caught on so many strollers ;_; I manged to get a huge chunkload of pics of the aquarium though.

After the aquarium, we went to the hotel and unpacked. I shared a room with UlmightyRed. The beds were the most comfiest I've ever been on! Afterwards we went to the pool, but that only lasted half an hour, because it was over chlorinated and kids splashing at us. We played marco polo, but we stopped after our eye burned. We went to the hot tub, and it was great... until we turned on the jets X( Th chlorine was crazy and it burned our eyes. We turned it off and we felt a little better, then kids came in, and one kept doing cannonballs that kept splashing us, so we left.

We went to eat at mcDonalds, and UlmightyRed and I hung in the hotel room, chatting and watching tv. I stayed up until midnight to watch the new season premiere of Rick and Morty. It was a great episode :D

This morning, we went to the Submarine Force Museum, and we also went inside the SS Nautilus Submarine. There was a lot of information and facts about the parts and history of submarines that I didn't have time to read them all. We went into the SS Nautilus and looked around. It was pretty cramped, but it was to be expected. There were many manniquens that took the places of the people, and it startled some of us. After that stop, we went back to the hotel to pack our things and made our way to mystic village. It's a decent sized village which have little shops. We stayed there for a few hours before we made it back home. We did hit gridlock along the way, but it managed to clear out.

I've got many videos up upload to my youtube XP Otherwise, I had fun, and felt relaxed. I've eaten a lot too. I've got to go back to work on Tuesday.

Back to the daily schedule, so pages 91 and 92 of 'More Superior Than You' will be posted this Sunday!
