I'm Here! We got in at around 7:45 lastnight, and it took 2 loads on the luggage-carrier thingy they give you to get our stuff up. (we took the rest up today)[see luke?? i told you I didn't bring too much :P ] Our Hotel room is AWESOME!!!!! my room is absolutely gorgeous, and I have a huuuuge bed and two large closets! (the irony is they barely give you any hangers) I got all unpacked, and then relaxed. I couldnt fall asleep till 2:30am, cause of the falling and my back hurting. I had to wake up at 7:30am, because dad wanted to start getting up earlier so that having to wake up at 6am for the next month would be easier. well, as easy as it can be at 6am ,anyways. then we went down to breakfast, which was ok i guess. they had eggs, (which were waaaay to runny and wet for my taste.) and sauseges, pastries, cereals and milks, oatmeal, and stuff to make yogurt parfaits, (yogurt, granola, and strawberries.) i made a parfait, but ended up throwing it away because it was just gross! we came back up, i showered, and we went to the grocery store to buy food. It's weird, their Safeway out here is called Domonick's, but its owned by safeway, so our club card worked. It was like walking around the one back home, just bigger and with waaaay more stuff. Then we came back here and ate lunch and relaxed.
Oh, and we also times how long it will take me to walk to RIC; it took 6:30 minutes, so if I count in about 15 minutes, I should be in good shape. But Its alot farther away than i thought! The people told us 1 1/2 blocks, but its more like 3 or so. Anyways you look at it, its alot of walking for me!
Im going to try to upload the pics I took of the hotel room, so i hope it works!
Dad and I just finnished watching a movie, and after I finnish this, I think Im going to go watch something in my room and just veg out.

Katie, I'm glad that you guys got there ok.
ReplyDeleteYou might want to add a couple of more minutes to your walking estimate. During the week there will be a lot more people on the sidewalk that you will have to deal with.
[Remember that paragraphs are your friends. :) ]
ohhh yeah I didn't thank about that! thanks I'll tell dad :)
ReplyDeleteHaha You try trying to compose sentences on all these meds! jk I know your helping, thanks :) [see that? i started a new paragraph :) ]
From Mom:
ReplyDeleteHey Kates! The suite is gorgeous!! Anna was mightily impressed. Looks very roomy. You and Dad should be able to have your own space and not kill each other. Ha ha - just kidding. I love the sink - pretty cool! Do you think the room is as good as our hotel there last month? Looks even nicer to me.
Dad said he's going to try different ideas for the sofa-bed to see if he can get it more comfortable. He'll work it out, I'm sure.
Going to go call you with an idea from Kris :) Love you! ~Mom
It's totally better than the other room!! waaaay bigger, and alot more elegant. almost the kind of decor you would expect to see in a palace or something...at least thats what it reminds me of.
ReplyDeleteI hope Anna gets to see it! She would love it here! We're right next to all the designer shops, including Northface! And I'm sure theres an Ugg one around here somewhere....
I wish you BOTH could be here to see this place! It's amazing! (then again, It's my first time living in a big city, so maybe it's just me lol)
I miss you all! (even dex haha)
haha 6 am, mad nice sis. out of curiosity, do you ever have hw?
ReplyDeleteHang it there Katie. "Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger", someone said that. You may be wondering which of those applies to you, but YOU can Do IT! Also remember James 1:2-4 2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
