KANSAS

Oh Dear! I nearly forgot to update, but I went to Kasas to see Amie in January. Our friend Catherine came as well.

This was also my very first solo flight - I did very well, of course, and did not get lost for even a moment.

I got on the plane at 11AM Friday (the 15th I believe) and was in Kansas around 5:30PM. Very long day - but very worth it. Amie and her mother came to pick up Catherine and me from the airport. The mother part I was a little surprised at, but come to find out she'd been there for the few weeks prior as well. That night, Amie's boyfriend, now fiance, made us all dinner; it was delishious.

The next day us girls got our nails done and then we all, meaning Amie, myself, Catherine, Amie's mother, Garret (Amie's fiance) and Garret's two girls, went out to dinner. After dinner, we hung out for a while and met Amie's brother out at a bar. Amie's mom watched the girls. The bar was fun, very much like any other bar I've been to. It took a while for the place to fill up and then a little longer for people to actually start dancing. I definately hit a wall - hard - before everyone else and just wanted to go to bed. Such a downer! Haha.

We spent Sunday night in a hotel. Amie got us a room with one King size bed so "no one would have to sleep alone." While Catherine and I appreciate Amie's concern for making someone sleep alone - we both do that on a regular basis and are completely okay with that situation. We made Amie sleep in the middle.

Monday, we trekked back to the airport. Catherine had an earlier flight then I did so we dropped her off and Amie showed me around the city a little bit.

Well, now I got to see where my best friend has been living for almost two years. It was a lot of fun and hopefully I can save up to do it again.
