Yesterday, we spent the day with the Newbury Park McKays. We
visited their church, The Bridge, and enjoyed their service. Afterwards we went
to lunch at the Side Street Café. I ordered chicken and waffles which were
delicious. We then headed back to their house. My cousin Alex introduced us to
a game based on the show Firefly. I’ve never been a fan of the show unlike my
Mom or brothers, but the game was pretty fun. I thought I was making some headway
in the game, but my cousin Ian won the game, despite our attempts to delay his
victory. We had been talking about the Maze Runner series and Ian suggested we
watch the movie he’d bought. The movie was pretty good, but I felt the plot was
too rushed. It was around seven, so we packed up our stuff and said our
goodbyes to the Newbury Park McKays.
The drive home was only a three hour trip with little
traffic. We finished the last book in the Maze Runner trilogy and I enjoyed the
story, but was disappointed with the fate of some of my favorite characters.
Around 10 pm, we pulled up to our driveway, tired but satisfied with the
memories we’d made on this road trip. I look back on all the places we went and
people we spent time with these past twelve days and wouldn’t want to change
any part of it (well accept being detained by the U.S. at the Canadian border).
Thanks for all who read my blog posts and hopefully you enjoyed reading about
our road trip as much as I did writing about it. Until the next road trip,
enjoy your life and stuff.
