hello USA – day two

this year is freaking fast. it’s mid june ALRDY?!

oh well. might as well, i need my pay!

.

anyway day two was spent at seaworld. seriously i really wished we could scrape this off the itinerary because i thought it would be something like underwater world. but THANK GDNESS it’s 100 times better than underwater world! if not i would have stabbed myself to death
