Sixth day of travel
Today we went into the mountains. Took a bit to get there though. First we toured a supposedly haunted hotel. No paranormal activity happened while there hence being supposedly haunted. Probably wouldn't stay there by myself. After a while all the paranormal stuff starts to get weird. After that we ate lunch and drove further into the mountains. Saw an elk and a little ground squirrel type thingie. We drove to the top of a mountain stopping occasionally to get pics and stuff we topped out at 12K150ft or so which was at the top of the mountain. Little surprised I didn't get altitude sickness that high up. After that we went home. The fires here are still going. The big Black Forest fire is about 5% contained. So far the news people say 360 homes are burned but I think the count is lower than that. Also in a different turn of events 2 people have now died trying to flee. Of course there's still smoke in the air but it was less noticeable today than yesterday. Hopefully our road home is still open tomorrow for the drive back home

Fifth day of travel
Today we went to an air and space museum where they had a bunch of mainly old jet planes like the P-80 and the F4 phantom and others that aren't in US service any more. (Can't speak for other countries) then later on in he day we went to baseball game. The home team lost unfortunately, although there were some good plays by both teams. The wind must've changed direction because it was all hazy and stuff from the fire in CO springs, CO. smoke was so bad you couldn't see the mountains off to the west like you're suppose to, and it smelled like a fire too.. Last I heard the Black Forest fire (official name for it) has burned down 92 houses. No deaths or injuries from what I've heard so far. Hopefully it gets put out soon and won't effect the drive home.

Fourth day of travel
Today we went the aquarium. It was kinda disappointing because there wasn't much there. Although there was tiger which is kinda odd for an aquarium for fish. Came home and layer around the house. My uncle comes and tells us of a wild fire about 45-50 miles to the south and kind of on our route home. We'll see if the road is open on Friday to get home. Went out about 10 miles or so to get pics of the smoke (still well away from the fire and all) after getting some pics of the smoke plume which I haven't figured out to put on here yet. (If I figure it out I'll add them). Tomorrow we're going to the air and space museum which should be pretty cool.

Third day of travel
Today we went to a natural history museum which was pretty interesting. They had exhibits about ancient Egypt and outer space and the planets. Then there was the other exhibits with all the ancient animals like the dinosaurs and the mammoths and other animals that don't exist any more. Tomorrow I think we're going to an aquarium thingy to see live animals. Should be fun.

Second day of travel
Didn't do much today. Went to a flea market where they had all kinds of stuff. I ate a chocolate croissant from here. It was a regular croissant but it was stuffed with chocolate and had chocolate on it. Then I sampled some kind Lebonese thingy. It was some type of bread stuffed with 99% pure hamburger. (If any one knows what this is please comment) they had a spinach one too but I don't like spinach so I got he hamburger one. It certainly tasted different probably cuz of the hamburger. After that we had lunch then went home and stayed around being lazy. The excitement should start tomorrow.
