Well, I'm back after a whirlwind tour of the south. Since I last checked in, we went to New Orleans. We watched my friend compete in the Junior Olympics. He does taekwondo. He's 11 years old. He managed to take home a bronze medal. He came in third out of about 30 kids in his division! I was very proud of him! New Orleans was better than I thought it would be. There were some VERY bad neighborhoods, but the main tourist areas are very nice. The food is EXCELLENT! We didn't have a single bad meal anywhere! They've got a very nice aquarium there that we went to. Anyway, it was a great trip, and now I'm home! I'm sure you're all just overjoyed to hear that :p
