the falls part duex

So back to the falls we went today. Yoles wanted to hit the outlet mall again ($5 bras this time folks and I picked up another Christmas present. I rock!) and this time we decided to take Abby with us. Maya got to spend the day with Grandma Linda and Papa. I really do enjoy going to the falls even if we don't go and see the water much anymore. Today, though, we made an exception since it was Abby's first visit there.

And she found this fountain way more interesting.

Probably because I gave her some change to make a wish with. Funny story; Michael scammed a coin off Abby and made a wish of his own or so he told me on the way home. He even told me what his wish was and then five minutes later cursed himself because now it wouldn't come true.

Yes, he is in his thirties, why do you ask?

After spending a few minutes perusing the falls..... yep water still running over, everything seems to be in order.... we headed back up Clifton Hill to explore some of the attractions with Abby.

It was all a little bit much for Abby. I mean Clifton Hill is rather Vegas-esque so it wasn't exactly surprising. We did see some interesting/weird/funny things between there and home though.

Show of hands, how many ladies out there have been looking for a place to pick up your exotic dancing gear? How many of you have tried the rest, but have not yet found the best? Well here it is girls.... G String Diva.

Oh and what's this?

Yes it is for rent. Hmmm, well yes the roof has caved in at the back. We were kind of hoping you wouldn't notice that.

And while waiting in Timmy's drive thru Abby pipes up from the back seat... "Dad, you suck." I stifle a giggle. Mike is shocked into silence and then, "and you're weird." I'm still choking back laughter while Mike pays for our order from the young man at the window. As we pull away Abby gets in one more shot, "And that guy says you smell!" And that folks was how we spent Sunday!
