C2E2 Pt 2

C2E2 is 10 days away according to the official counter at c2e2.com. And I am going because there is an opportunity to stalk -er, I mean meet John Barrowman, Chris Hardwick, and various people from The Walking Dead among other awesome individuals. I get to go on a train. I've ever been on the Amtrak before so this is going to be exciting. Cheese Face out.

Spring Break 2011

Yes, it's true. I'm back from spring break. Now while I was out and about, I took many-a picture. It would a crime not to share them with you, so here they are.


Crossing state lines.

The fountain in the main entrance of the House.

The Japanese Garden of the House on the Rock.


Old slot machines. Now entering first section of the House.


This thing plays music. For real.


The guy who built the House, Alex Jordan, used to have parties in rooms like this one.


This also plays music.


Wisconsin through the window of the Infinity Room. I didn't like this room. It's reaallly high up and I don't like heights. I freaked out.


This is a table of some sort.


This is a dresser with pearls and shells and it's pretty.
It's a fox.


The wall of the women's bathroom.


 This is another music thing.

OMG IT'S THE DOCTOR'S HAND! Not really, just a (hopefully) fake hand in a jar.

ahh, pretty.

Are you my mummy?


This is soooo big. It's a whale being attacked by a giant squid. This is the mouth of the whale.


Hot air balloon.

German plane.


"Das machine ist nicht fur Gerfingerpoken und grabben." In other words-en, don't touch!


An ad for Burma-Shave. What?


Pretty, a rose.


We are now in the Butterfly Room.


The Carousel Room.


Don't blink.


Blink and you're dead.


This place has fabulous pizza. It's the bestestestest pizza in the worlds.

Prettiest chandelier in the world.


The fountain at Inspiration Point.


One of the dollhouses. There are much bigger ones than this.


Creepy.


This is made out of ivory.





Queen Elizabeth II and her crown.

Buckingham Palace.


So that was my vacation.

Cheese Face out.

C2E2 Day 1

Hey there! I'm in Chicago at the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo (hence C2E2). Today was our first day at the incredible event. There were so many people. (Warning: the following may not make sense if you are not a nerd)

We went to the Doctor Who store and got many awesome things. I got Ten's sonic screwdriver and a TARDIS magnet for my locker. I also got the DOCTOR WHO MOVIE WITH THE EIGHTH DOCTOR ON DVD OMGx1O MILLION!

Then we walked around and saw some cool things like, um, a TARDIS tent or maybe A LIFE SIZE DALEK! And Mario. And yes, there are pics. 

We saw cool people. One was dressed like the Fourth Doctor, another dressed like the Tenth Doctor (squee), and another dressed like the Eleventh Doctor wearing a fez. Fezzes are cool. We saw many people dressed like superheroes, Star Wars people, etc. We also met a lady who knows sooo much about Doctor Who. We had a nice conversation while we were looking for Doctor Who shirts. I got a shirt that said "I (heart heart) the Doctor". Cuz, the Doctor has two hearts.

We got some Ugly Dolls too. I got Poe. He's a dragon.

This is not the end of our C2E2 adventure. I'll blog about it some more tomorrow.

Cheese Face out.
