Surprise Segway Tour

My aunt was in town from Pennsylvania and she took me for a day-trip

Please note two things: 1-My aunt's real name is Jill, but I will call her G. Why? That's another story for another time. 2- These time are approximate.

Date: 7/21/11

7 a.m. - G and I wake up, do the morning things, and eat breakfast.
