Branson

So this weekend I went to Branson with Josh and his family. We left Thursday afternoon and got back yesterday at 7. The last time I was in Branson was when I was maybe 10. So everything was pretty new to me.
We stayed at the Hilton landing in a condo, which was insane. Our balconey overlooked the shopping areas and the lake. Everything was decorated in Christmas lights and they played Christmas music the entire time until 12 at night.

We went to several places while we were there. I got see two Imax movies for the first time (I know I'm sheltered), we went to Silver Dollar City, and we did tons of shopping.

Silver Dollar City was really decked out for Christmas; they have this massive tree does light performances every hour and every inch of the park is covered in lights. It was extremely cold when we went because we decided to go at night to watch the lights and such, so now I'm sick (but it was worth it). We got to see A Christmas Carol while we there too, which was a play about Scrouge. At the end they shot bubbles out of the ceiling which was suppose to be snow. I also got to ride Fire in the Hole, which was the only rollar coaster we could ride because it was so cold and it's the only one indoors.

The ride home, however, was brutal and trying to get back into my normal routine has been a little hard. I couldn't sleep at all last night because I was so sick. lol.

So, yeah, that was my weekend. I thought it would make an interesting blog :)
Toodles!
