Note: Having tech issues trying to load pictures on the blog from my phone, so no pics for now; will plan to update when fixed. Bummer!
Fun day in Huntsville, AL. Another hot day so we were glad to have plans inside. We had a shortish drive and didn’t realize there’d be a time change, so we had extra time at the museum here in Rocket City.
We toured the museum, saw a planetarium show about our solar system, and even did a virtual reality experience round-trip to the moon. There were many interactive exhibits here, and Zadie pushed every button she came across. :)
By the time the museum closed at 5, we were ready for some pool time, but a thunderstorm ruined those plans and drenched us in the process. Apologies again to Zadie for not handing her the extra umbrella I was holding, not that mine helped me much! (Arrived at hotel to find emergency vehicles all around the entrance, so we ran through the parking lot. Wouldn’t be a McB vacation unless we get drenched at least once.)
In addition to getting drenched, we were also surprised here to find that our kitchenette had no way to cook other than a microwave. Oops! We were planning to cook a healthy dinner and could’ve gotten a plug-in burner from the desk, but picked up some prepped grocery store options instead. We’re doing a decent job so far of balancing our meals and getting in the occasional workout as we did in the gym here. Fingers crossed that we can keep it up at least occasionally, or I’m going to have a rough time going back to teaching classes at the gym in August!
