Hey there, folks! It’s your trusty blogger, reporting live from day fourteen of our fabulous US tour and day two in the sunny town of Greensboro, North Carolina. And let me tell you, the weather is once again playing nice with us, hovering around the delightful mid 20 degrees mark. We’re loving it!
Now, today was a bit of a lazy start for us, mainly because our cousin Julie had to work. Poor Julie, we’ll catch up with her later! But that didn’t stop my lovely wife Michele from channeling her inner superhero. She transformed into none other than Widow Twankey, tackling the formidable challenges of Julie’s washing machine and dryer. A true domestic goddess in action!
Our first adventure for the day took us to the land of wonders known as Costco. Our mission? To find the elusive skorts in all their glory. And guess what? We hit the jackpot! Skorts as far as the eye could see, in all sorts of fabulous colors. But here’s the dilemma: now that we’ve snagged them, can we squeeze them into Michele’s already overflowing suitcase? Stay tuned for the thrilling conclusion to this tale of fashion versus luggage space.
In the afternoon, we decided to go house hunting with Julie. The house we visited was, well, okay. It had potential, but it needed a bit of TLC (and a chunk of cash) to bring it back to its former glory. But here’s the kicker: everything beyond the back door was like a scene from a fairytale. A great porch and sprawling lawns that stretched out into the distance. It was a “wow wow wow” moment, and we couldn’t help but wonder if this was really the same Julie we knew. Only time will tell!
As the evening settled in, we opted for a simple meal—note, not dinner or tea, because we’re totally embracing the American lingo—of mouthwatering ribs and finger-licking chicken. We dined like royalty, enjoying the tasty flavors while soaking up the warm evening breeze. But alas, the bugs decided to join the party, and their collective symphony became a bit too loud for our liking. Time to call it a night, my buggy friends!
Now, before we bid you farewell, let me share a little secret with you. Tomorrow, we have an early start because it’s the FA Cup Final—Manchester United vs. Manchester City! Oh boy, we can’t contain our excitement! Fingers crossed for a nail-biting match filled with spectacular goals and maybe a cheeky red card or two. Let’s hope it lives up to the hype! And let Manchester be RED!
That’s all for today, folks! Stay tuned for more misadventures, cheekiness, and laughter as we continue our US tour. Until next time, keep smiling, keep exploring, and keep being awesome! Cheers!
