I spent Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday with my sister in her apartment in Baton Rouge, LA. We had a blast! We left my house after lunch on Monday for the 2 1/2 hour drive. Singing all the way, we managed to make it through the construction traffic on the interstate highway. At some points we were at a complete stop.
We brought along two platies that I had raised from fry and promised to give her. We put them in her 10 gallon along with her 4 cherry barbs (also raised and given to her by me) and two cories (one bronze & one albino). She also has a betta in a 2 gallon hex called Rufus.
Her roomate is out of town, so I got her bed intead of having the sleep on the couch. My sister gets to take care of her two adorable and crazy cats, Blue and Kitty, while she is gone. I love them to pieces and we really bonded while I was there. I wanted to take them home with me!
We went to the lake right near her apartment to feed the ducks. The fish (bluegills I think), turtles, and sparrows also enjoyed the bread we gave out. I took pictures of the ducks, a squirrel, two egrets, and a green heron.
Then we went to Ninfas for a mexican dinner. I love their food. It is the best. I had beef fahitas and my sister had a combination plate with an enchilata, a taco, and a tamale.
Then we went to see a movie. We saw Memento. It was great! Tough plot to follow, but very interesting. We both loved it and agreed that anyone who liked fightclub would love this movie too. It's about a guy with no short-term memory that takes pictures and writes notes to help him remember things. There hasn't been much publicity for it. I heard about it on the internet. There were only half a dozen people in the theater if you included us.
That was it for Monday. I'll continue in a few minutes with Tuesday's adventures.
