Listen for Brooke’s “THAT WAS AWESOME” 8 seconds before the end. Lulz. But no, it wasn’t just this sweet tunnel. When you finally get into the gate, you’re greeted with some red white and blue lit trees, along with santa in a tank (?) and some paratroopers. Very christmasy, very texas. The stage was set.
The best part about it was probably the “holiday village”, which was like a christmas themed mini-fair, complete with kids’ rides, funnel cake, cider, corn dogs, cocoa, kettle corn, and fat texans. Inside this huge tent, you could take pictures with santa, watch a light show, or buy christmasy shit you don’t want–for families with kids!
It was pretty good time all in all. Although the traffic was pretty terrible getting into the place…even though we sorta cut past, I dunno, maybe 75% of the cars in line (kinda by accident, kinda by design…oop). So I don’t know if I can recommend it because of that. Maybe the week of christmas isn’t the best time to go? Who knows.
Hope you’re having a festive christmas season, and you get that bb gun you’ve had your eye on, and will subsequently put your eye out with.

I sent you an SMS but I wasn’t sure you received it.
Just an FYI, Qik released a new iPhone app, Qik Live, that now allows you stream video live to their website. I think uou have to install the new app, it won’t update the old version.
Very Merry to both you and Brooke btw.

Yeah I got your text, forgot to reply. I never downloaded the app store version of qik, since I heard mixed reviews. I’ve only ever used the jailbroken version (with live streaming, etc) and it’s worked well enough for me
If qik live offers the same features as the jailbroken qik, I’ll prolly switch to that since it’s likely to be more stable. Sometimes I can’t get the version I have to open without crashing at least once.
