now blogging from illinois

Guten abend, Freundinnen! (Good evening, friends!)

Right now I am blogging from Illinois! I am on my dad's laptop, so it wanted to convert every single picture on my camera onto his laptop. I only have so much time to blog, so I saved the trouble and decided to not have pictures on this post. Sorry about that, but I promise that I'll post like a million pictures as soon as I get home!

Anyways, tomorrow I'm getting up at three in the morning, just like the other years. After driving for about an hour, dad and I will go to a very special restaurant in a very special town. It's an Indy trip tradition to stop at this particular restaurant. I'll show you pictures and name names once I get home!

After driving for a few hours, we'll arrive at Indianapolis. We'll probably wait a few more hours to get out of tight traffic. Eventually, we'll park in the same spot as last year, and walk about a mile to the racetrack. Then we'll hear the national anthem, "Back Home Again in Indiana", and then the ever-famous line, "Ladies and Gentlemen, start your engines!" And they'll be off! I'll take some video of the cars going by, but I'm not quite sure if I'll be able to post a video. I'll try, though.

At three in the afternoon, the race will be over. I really hope somebody wins that hasn't won before. I have my eye on Marco Andretti and Tony Kanaan. I'd love to see one of them win.  Once we know who won, dad and I will rush out of the racetrack to try and get ahead of the veeeeeeeeeeeery tight traffic that will eventually clog up the roads. We'll get back in the early evening. I hope Adventure Time will be playing on Cartoon Network by the time we get back!!! (Oh, in case you didn't know, which you probably do, I am now hooked on Cartoon Network and the Disney Channel, since I watched like two hours of Regular Show and Adventure Time last night while we were at my cousins.)

Okay, gotta shower now. As soon as I'm done, I'm  going to bed. I'll need that extra sleep! Wish my dad and me luck and safety on the road tomorrow! I'd really appreciate that!

I pinky-promise that as soon as I get home, I'll post my pictures. Sorry about this post!
