It was so hot and sunny that we decided to pay another visit to Carol's Sno-Ball shack.

We tried a Mardi Gras King Cake flavoured sno-ball this time, which tasted amazingly like cake for being icy.

I really like the hair cut on this statue... is it work to take style inspiration from historical figures?

It was the start of the @[78923756193:College World Series] today so we headed up to the newly opened Ameritrade park to see what was going on.

We ate our ice while walking through Gene Leahy Mall.

Tom and I don't know anything about baseball apart from that it's similar to rounders. We also made the mistake of sitting on the boiling hot bleachers and burning our legs. I can see where they get their name from!

There were also some fancy Union Pacific trains on display, so we had a look at them and Tom was wowed by the size of the wheels.

It was so hot outside, so we decided to cool down at the Slowdown with root beer and board games.

We started with a game of Anti-Monopoly which sounded interesting but wasn't actually that fun.

We also played Guess Who which was just as fun as I remember it being when I was little.

Afterwards we went to Urban Outfitter where we always end up buying something.

I managed to buy an awesome pair of buckled wellies, a knit dress, skirt and belt all for $9.99 and Tom got a pair of new Levi's and a zippy hoodie.

We then popped in to the new @[73901076279:Saddle Creek Records] store which had only been open for two hours.

It looks exactly like Tom's old bedroom use to be with the same colour walls, records everywhere and all of the t-shirts Tom owns sitting on a rail.

We headed back to the lofts for dinner. We hag wagon wheel pasta with tomato pesto which was really yummy.

After dinner we headed up to the roof so that we could get front row seats for the fireworks.

The fireworks were really pretty and we got to meet our neighbours Jim & Linda, who were really nice.

We were still a little hungry so we headed downstairs to the wine bar, where it was Happy Hour for cheap sushi.

It was good but not as good as the sushi we had a Blue yesterday!
