Britney Cont...The Road Trip

After much confusion of changing plans, figuring out rides, getting snacks for the trip, and last minute packing, we were finally on our way. I love road trips but I get incredibly antsy! I rode out with Aimee and Jessica and although Des Moines is only a few hours away, I started getting a little childlike and anxious. I kept playing with Aimee's seat belt and squirming around. It could also be that I was SO EXCITED to get there! When we got within city limits we starting using Aimee's GPS system on her phone that talks to you and tells you where to go. We stayed at the Embassy Suites on the river which is within a few blocks of the Wells Fargo Arena and the downtown area. It was incredibly easy to find with the tracker but absolutely ridiculously hilarious. The hotel was located on Locust Street but for some reason, unknown to humans, the GPS pronounced Locust as "Asparagus". And not only did the female voice pronounce it "asparagus", she practically screamed it. This happened twice and I still giggle when I think about it. We cracked up about it for like ten minutes. Aimee could barely keep driving. I knew then that this was going to be a GREAT trip!
