Kansas City

Some friends and I got to go to Kansas City this past week for a Show Choir Trip. It was a lot of fun.. we left at 5:15 a.m. on Tuesday morning from the school.

Now you wouldn't think a bunch of high school kids would be thrilled to be up that early, but you also know that high school kids can sleep just about anywhere. For the first half of the 8 hour bus ride (yes, the drive to Kansas City turned into 8 hours thanks to the flooding of the interstate) everyone slept sound. I remember waking up a few times and thinking it was scary how quiet a group of 20 high schoolers were. 

Anyways when we got there we relaxed at the hotel for a few hours and then we went to see Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at the New Dinner Theatre. It was a really good show.

NO REALLY!! It was!!! :)

We actually did have a lot of fun..
 
All the ladies (and I mean ALL the ladies - chaperones too) were in love with Joseph. Chiseled arms, beautiful face, he can sing, he can dance, what woman wouldn't be in love? Then I just couldn't help myself.. Imagine that. Me not being able to keep my mouth shut! I had to ask the waiter whether he was married...the conversation went as followed (and any ordinary waiter this conversation wouldn't have taken place, but he was exceptionally cool to a group of high schoolers):
"Hey Jon!! I have a question..is Joseph married in real life?" -Me
"No, actually he can't legally be married.." -Jon the Waiter
"What why not???" -Everyone at the table
"Think about it.." -Jon the Waiter
"Is he an immigrant?" -Me
"That could be a reason.." -Jon
(a long silence follows..)
"OH MY GOD NO!!" -HB
"WHAT???" -Everyone at the table
"HE's GAY!!!!!!" -HB
"Yup, sure is." -Jon the Waiter

Not that any of us have anything against gay men, but this was really quite heartbreaking. Nobody was quite as interested in the show after that, until the Pharoah came in, but that's a different story for a different time. :)

The next morning we went a toured the Harley Davidson plant. It was really neat, although you couldn't have cameras inside the actual tour. We did get a few sweet pictures outside though. What do you say? Do I need to marry a biker someday?? :)


We also went to a baseball game...which I was pumped for :) even if it wasn't the twins!

What can I say, i have a thing for catchers:)
He smiled at me :) i think it was because he heard me say he was sexy..we were literally right above the bullpen for a while :)

And the Royals won!! Which was good for all of us Twins fans because they were plyaing the White Sox..

We also got to go to worlds of fun, no pictures though :)

All in all, we had a great time :)
