kansas city- there i went!

as i prepare to accompany duff to wyoming, i'm spending my morning sorting through some of the pictures i posed for during my recent trip to kansas city.

duff, nicole the gnome, and i stopped in the detroit airport on our way to kansas city. this was great, because i'd never been to michigan before. (32 states down,18 to go.)

here are a few pictures of the neat tunnel between terminals at the detroit airport:







at the other end of the tunnel, nicole and i found a really cool fountain. we begged duff to take a picture of us.



after drying off, we did a little window shopping on the way to our plane.





when we got to kansas city, i hung out with duff's dad while she waited for her suitcase to appear.



after nibbling on turkey and stuffing thanksgiving afternoon, we headed down to the plaza to view the lights.



the next day, we traveled to independence, missouri, to drive by harry truman's home.



while driving around, we also saw this interesting temple. i thought it looked sort of like a wizard's hat from afar.



that evening, we went out for some mexican cuisine with duff's friends jamie and ash.







after dinner, we drove over to ash's house, where i was reunited with g-cat, master of all he surveys.



the next morning, jamie picked us up and we went to the kansas city zoo.













the next day (monday the 28th), we drove to bonner springs, kansas, where i was introduced to a beautiful place- taco john's.







after returning home, i burned off a few calories playing in the snow.



which reminds me- has anyone seen my scarf? i hear it's pretty cold in wyoming right now.
