Spring Break!
This week has been spring break! Not sure break is a good word though, I still had to study...but there was time for other things too! A short getaway was the high point of the week. We looked up a hotel that was not too expensive but had nice features, and that wasn't too far away and then we went! That meant that we ended up in Locust Grove about an hour from Tulsa. I bet it would have been nicer a different time of the year though. We took the scenic route but I'm not sure of how scenic it really was...
The hotel was just off the main road, the room had a private jacuzzi which we enjoyed, the breakfast was ok (Aron loves hotel breakfast...) and there were two options of resturants in walking distance. We ended upp at Denny's. After a nights sleep we went to explore. Andreas had read about some "blue hole" which should be nice to see! So we went to look for it. The map we had was not great so we ended up in no-where pretty much on a dirt road with a river crossing the road, yeah, not the road crossing the river....we took another road but could not find what we looked for, so we went back. Once back by one of the main roads we realized: it was just there, just yards from the road....It wasn't as big as we thought...but we saw it!
Then off to see a lake and then back home again! Stopping at the mall and at an creamery for icecream before home! Good short vacation, not sure I was more rested when I got home though, but we had a nice time!
And the pics!
Jacuzzi in the room!
Milkshake from Denny's before jumping in!
River crossing the road...
On our way back...
Out in no-where! And believe me there are houses here and there... can't belive that people live this far out!
This is what we were looking for...
The big lake was not that hard to find! ;)
Yep that was that!
Next week, back to school...only 6 more weeks to go! Yay!!
