I've lived in Indiana for about a month and a half and can I just say how much I love it! The city is just so beautiful. From the buildings to the sidewalks, it's gorgeous! I'm sure there's a prettier place in the world, but to me this is gorgeous!
Since I've lived here, I've driven around a lot more than Fredricka (fred-ree-kuh), my car, can probably handle! But I'm sure she wants to see the town too and that's why she hasn't given up on me yet! I'm so thankful for the Maps app on my phone or I'd probably be lost in a neighborhood I shouldn't be in. I can also thank my new friend, Sydney, for showing me the rough areas and helping me avoid them!
Speaking of Sydney, we've had a lot of adventures together. Almost like we're experiencing the town together, even though she's been here almost her entire life. Can I just tell you fellow bloggees (and other people) how thankful I am for this girl! She's seriously awesome and I'm so glad I've met her and we're able to experience new things together. This past weekend we went downtown to check out the "black expo"..still not sure what that is because we never even made it there. But we did manage to do other things and have a blast! I figured I'd go ahead and share those things with you. :)
Our first stop...food! Since we live about 20 minutes North of Indianapolis, on our way down we decided to stop in a little area called Broadripple and enjoy some Applebees! We seem to eat there a lot, but it's so good we couldn't pass it up! Even though we just about froze our butts off, it was still fun!
She got her famous Strawberry Daiquiri and I got my favorite White Peach Sangria drink!
After a delicious dinner and drinks, we decided to head into the city and experience greatness! :)
But first, we had to stop so I could get a picture with the city!
I'm telling you, we're spontaneous!
Okay now seriously, this time we're headed into the city...Promise!
But one more thing slowed us down..Lil' Wayne! Yes, I said it Weezy F. Baby! We were cruising downtown a little bit and as we were sitting at a stop light, I looked over to my left and there was Lil' Wayne about to cross the street!!
He even looked at me for the picture. :)
After being starstruck, we found a parking spot, by the "library" which really ended up being a beautiful monument! :) After we parked, walked like 2 blocks, we realized we probably shouldn't park that far from downtown/where all the cops were so we went back and moved the car. But before we did, we had to get pictures of/with the monument! (Still not sure what the monument was for, but hey it was pretty!)
Next stop after moving the car...DOWNTOWN!
After finding probably the best parking spot ever, we started walking around. First stop, bar! I was craving a margarita!! As we were walking, we saw a pub! It was also a casino/OTB. OTB is horse-racing or something like that. That was...interesting, but at least the bartender was cute!
As we walked around downtown we saw tons of interesting cars..ones that looked like this...
And nope, I'm not kidding.
I still just don't understand why that is cute...
We also saw tons of cops. Cops on bikes, cops on horses, cops on motorcycles, cops in cars, and even cute ones with sexy boots on! It was cop central downtown!
But overall, the night was fantastic and it's definitely something I could do every weekend! :) I'm so thankful for Sydney and her just trying new things with me, even if they sound completely crazy! :) Thanks again Jen for introducing us!<3
It's almost midnight and officially bedtime! :) Until next time...












I'm so glad you made a friend! And are finding new places to go, because I want to see it all while I'm there! :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for you to visit and see this place! :) We're going out sooooo much!<3
