Midnight Bloom Reads: Vacation

I'm HOME!

1:44 AM

I'm back home in Canada again!

Alright, so if you're a new follower, you probably have a confused expression on your face right now but my older followers will know that for the past two weeks, I've been in Florida! I brought my little netbook along so I could still blog and keep up to date with stuff while I was at the hotel, enjoying the free WiFi. ^_^

I've been to Florida several times now and I had fun once again. I went to Disney for a few days but the real part I was mainly looking forward to was checking out the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios! It was AWESOME!!

I'll post the pics in the upcoming days, but I may get sidetracked because there are several books out this today that I MUST READ. You may have heard of them before... Clockwork Angel, Paranormalcy, Halo... I must simply have them! (And I know I'm not alone in this regard!)

Happy reading everyone!

I'm Heading to Florida!

7:33 PM

Like the title suggests, I'm heading to Florida for two weeks! Tomorrow morning to be exact... bright and early to try to beat the crowds at the border. I haven't been to Florida for a few years, but this year, instead of flying, we're actually going to drive down because let's face it, plane tickets are way too expensive these days. So we're having a road trip! We'll be driving through Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and then through Georgia before hitting our destination state. I've never been through these states so I can't wait to check out the scenery!

I'll definitely be bringing my portable DVD player, music, and some books for the VERY LONG car ride. (At least we're stopping at a hotel for one night and not driving all the way down at once- that would be crazy.)

Anyways, for sure, we'll be going to Disney World and Orlando Studios, where I'm so excited to check out the Wizarding World of Harry Potter! From the pictures online, it looks so cool!

I'm bringing my little netbook along, so hopefully I'll be able to post a couple things while I'm away because I haven't really had the time to pre-post anything.

I'll also have to buy some books while I'm down South... like Mockingjay. There's no way I can wait until I'm back home for it. (I had a similar reaction when Harry Potter 6 came out.. resulting in an American copy which doesn't match the rest of my books in the series, lol.)

But yeah, it will probably be a little more quiet here on the blog front. (I'll post some pics from my vacation when I return home.)

Anyways, I still haven't packed anything... yikes! So I'm off to do some very last minute packing!

My Trip to the States!

9:00 AM

Okay, so I finally uploaded the pics I took while I was in the States two weekends ago and thought I'd share a few. Along with my family, we drove to Dearborn, Michigan which is not too far from Detroit, and visited the Henry Ford Museum. I was only there for a few days before we drove home back across the border, but I had more fun than I expected!

This was the kind of the weather we had to drive through on the way... and let me tell you, I was praying it wouldn't last forever otherwise it was not going to be a very fun weekend.

It was raining so hard we could barely see in front of us! And then it even hailed! But thankfully, once we passed that stretch of road, it was like this:

By the time we reached our hotel, it was too late to do anything, so we just settled in and got ready for the next day. Now, introducing... the Henry Ford Museum!

Later that night, we watched Inception at their IMAX theater, which is apparently the largest in the state. Inception was AMAZING and seeing it on their huge screen made the experience so much better!! I even saw it again this weekend. :)

The next day, we checked out Greenfield Village!

Well, that pretty much sums up my little mini-vacation. A lot of walking and seeing things from the Industrial Revolution, but I'm so glad the weather cooperated with us after all!
