Cincinnati. Good City, Rainy Day, Green Slime?

Posted on by

One day of the tour I havn’t got to blog much about… Cincinnati.  I enjoyed the hell out of Cincinnati.  There were a few cool antique malls, enjoying the cities “Purple People Bridge” was a blast, had a good lunch.  But, Cincinnati also proved to be a nightmare of sorts. LOL.  We had lawn seats to the Wiz Khalifa & Mac Miller “Under The Influence Tour,” and it ended up raining ALL night long.  We’re talking downpours here. The concert was still a blast, and my girlfriend found a $10 bill on the way out to make it even better, but the rain didn’t allow us to snap any photographs.  Should have bought a disposable underwater camera!

Cincinnati also brought, what is now known as, “green slime.”  Mac Miller has a song/potential disc called “Pink Slime” which is where it originated from. I was dumb enough to slip on some green algae, etc.. on some concrete right beside the Ohio River. Almost fell in the damn river! Busted up my arm, covered in the “slime,” the whole nine yards. Let’s just say Cincinnati ended up not being the best city we traveled to.  Well, the worst.

This is honestly just the beginning of what REALLY happened in Cincinnati. LOL. The stories are almost endless. Perhaps another day…

Nonetheless, THANK YOU CINCINNATI for the memories! ;)

Day Two of Miami!

Posted on by

Today started out a little later than anticipated, but we still got up around 9 AM.  After getting ready, we managed to get some things done.  We got some postcards sent out, bought some groceries for the hotel room, and explored Miami a bit.  Then, the rain hit!  I was expecting it, but boy did it rain!  It ended up being a total downpour.  We made the most of it and relaxed around the hotel a bit, and as soon as it cleared, hit the pool and walked up and down the beach.

Even while it was raining it was still near 80 degrees outside, and the pool is heated.  I would venture to say “extremely” heated.  It almost feels like a gigantic hot tub.  As for the ocean, it’s a bit chilly, especially today, but not too bad at all.  The wind/rain storm rustled up the bottom of the ocean and brought up all sorts of seaweed, garbage, etc.. We actually ended up finding a coconut!  Still havn’t yet decided what we’re doing with it yet…

The plan for the rest of tonight is to just relax around the hotel, and get ready for tomorrow.  We’re planning on getting up and watching the sunrise, having breakfast of some sort, and spending the day on the beach!  I bought a bodyboard today and it’s supposed to be 80 degrees tomorrow and Wednesday, and I plan on getting some use out of it!  We’re also thinking about taking a bus and exploring the nightlife of downtown Miami tomorrow night… we’ll see!

I’ve already had a blast, and look forward to these last few days of this journey!
