Well as you random people (Y'ALL) should know, I went to Tennessee. It was on a tour bus thing...like a charter bus with a "tour guide" that would take you places.
Annoying Things about The Trip:
~The stupid tour guide. Honestly! He was chinese and the whole bus was practically chinese so everything he said he had to repeat in two different chinese dialects and it was SOO FREAKING ANNOYING! I mean, we all came from America, I THINK we should be able to understand english! But you know what, I couldn't even tell what he was saying cuz of his annoying chinese accent! And every time he talked he put his hand out like a freakin GIRL (not that that's a bad thing, as I am a girl, but he was a GUY, for Pete's sake!) and his teeth were all brown and little and spaced out and plain disgusting!
~The stupid time limits. Everywhere we went, there were always time limits. "you have to come back at 10:15!" "Get back to the bus in 15 minutes!" We didn't really have time to shop for souvenirs. We barely even had time to take our time through the places. We had to rush through everything, which made everything less enjoyable. Especially Rock City, which was in Georgia (I think) and really amazing. Also me and my sister really wanted to buy cowboy boots but we didn't have time to buy them :(. And where else in the world can you buy a pair!?
~The stupid bus. There's a really exciting story but it was annoying when it happened. On Thursday, when we were all off the bus eating lunch, a car crashed into the bus and broke the window that me and my sister were sitting next to! So we had to wait TWO AND A HALF HOURS for another bus to come from NY. That bus had NO ac at ALL so we were all sweating like crazy. My stupid congested nose didn't make it any easier to breathe, either. And then when we went to Burger King for dinner, a red horizontal pole scraped against the window across the aisle from where I was sitting, and shattered it! Luckily there were two layers of glass so the people didn't get hurt. And it was cool watching the window shatter. But really!? How many buses would we have to break! During the night another bus had to come 8 hours. That one supposedly had ac, but it didn't. And it was hot in the bus :(.
~The stupid going-to-bed-late-and-getting-up-early thing. We got to the hotels at like 11 every night and had to get up at like 6. And all the going to bed prep? Takes a while. And in the morning? Showers and getting up prep! I was really tired and let me tell you, it wasn't too easy to sleep on a hot stupid bus.
Cool things about The Trip:
~Seeing Rock City. It was really cool and awesome.
~Seeing Ruby Falls. Beautiful.
~Seeing the Lost Sea. Pretty cool, but the brochure is sadly highly exaggerated.
~Seeing Luray Caverns. Really pretty. The audio tour was funny cuz there's a regular tour and a "childrens tour". It was an audio tour btw, so for some of them I listened to the children's one, which were so sad and pathetic it was funny. I got awesome rainbow-y shoelaces!
~Seeing Shenandoah Caverns. Pretty cool. They had these rainbow lights on some formations that resulted in really pretty stuff. And some of the stuff in the gift shop were hilarious. Examples:
"Hilbilly Excercise Block". Step One: Place block on floor. Step Two: Walk around block twice. Step Three: Sit down and relax! You have just walked around the block twice.
"Sure-fire Bug Killer" (Two pieces of wood taped together, one thinner and one thicker). Open up the top and on the second piece says, "Place bug on spot (Then there's a small fly-sized filled-in black circle). Smash bug with lid.
~Going to Dixie Stampede. The same concept as Medieval Times, only in colonial days.
~Friends. My friend's family went too, and it was fun to play cards with her, her brother, and my sister. The game? Chinese poker, of course! XD (I'm so asian! Not really)
Overall, the trip was pretty cool, even though we only stayed in Tennessee for 1 day.
