Visit to @papa-pepper and family - Day 2steemCreated with Sketch.

in #story7 years ago (edited)

Saturday morning, my grandson @naru-celier (Nathaneil) and myself we had breakfast in our hotel room that includes a small kitchen.
We joined the @papa-pepper family after 10AM. The plan was to go to Branson's Wild World a trip of around 45 minutes, without to much traffic or other difficulties.

@papa-pepper got distracted.

We were to follow the Pepper car. @papa-pepper told me that he had to get some gas at the local gas station. He indeed stopped there, and he went to the Subway at the gas station. But then, he got distracted, and he left without getting any gas.

After fifteen minutes, the Pepper car stopped and we had to go to the closest gas station with our car, where @papa-pepper bought a new gas can and fill it up.

Look how @papa-pepper is annoyed to be in this situation!

And when we came back, he just added the new gas can to his collection!

Branson's Wild World

As it was almost 1PM, we had lunch in a pizzeria, where I was even able to get a vegan pizza with vegan cheese.

We finally arrived at the Branson's Wild World, a small indoor zoo and aquarium.

There, we saw plenty of reptiles, aquatic creatures and other animals.

We even went inside the cages of the New Guinea singing dogs

Back to the house

When we went back to the house, I cooked dinner: broiled cauliflowers and pan-fried carrots.

Everybody seems to enjoyed those, with some chicken for those that are not vegan

After dinner, we went to see the house that @jaguarlife is building with ICFs (Insulating concrete forms.

And finally, at night, we went to look for scorpions. You can learn about the whole story in this post from @papa-pepper.
We were very happy, Nathaneil and myself, to find one scorpion each.

This was another good day.
