So, I failed to report on the last leg of my journey. So I shall make a brief description of the events that transpired. This description will be aided by photos, as I took them and took the time to plug in my camera. And Yulie complained that my few posts are far too long. Therefore, I will provide a narrative of my trip using the grammatical/pictorial style of a little Japanese women whose first language isn't exactly English. I went to Rhode Island and I was excited cause they have lots of And I wanted to eat some: As well as All Thanks to: And, also, I didn't: Cause when you're raised in Kansas when you think of: You think of: Which makes you wanna:
