Leaving OK City








7/1
After a light week in OK City, we're heading out to San Antonio!
We should get there in time for fireworks on the 4th :)

I did get to visit the botanical gardens in OK City. It was a very beautiful facility with lots of plants I've never seen. I couldn't take pictures of all of them (memory card full), but here are a few samples:




Also, it's worth mentioning that the internet here was PHENOMENAL. Since joining this tour, I've rarely had a strong enough signal to download or skype. Usually I'm lucky if I can check my email regularly from a device other than my phone. Here, I was able to download and stream movies in a flash. What a nice feeling :D

"OK" City, Oklahoma Bread








We arrived in Oklahoma City on Tuesday around midnight. The next day I took the bus to the arena and did some wandering around :)

I have to say, Google Maps is awfully convenient! By the time we get to each city, I feel like I've been there before. I look for keywords like "WalMart, bookstore, bakery, museum", and make a route between all the general places I want to visit. Then I zoom as far as possible without going to street level and look for other areas of interest near my route. Then I take note of cross streets and landmarks. So by the time I'm walking around it's usually very easy to find what I'm looking for!
