July 25 Studebaker Museum in South Bend, Indiana











Good day everyone! Yesterday's post has been updated. Jon and I went to the Studebaker museum in South Bend, Indiana. It had 3 levels of cars and wagons ranging from the 1800’s to 1966. There were also really cute pedal cars for kids. We went there because Jon owns a 1951 Champion Studebaker which he and his grandpa restored. His mom also owns 1962 Hawk Studebaker too. It was interesting to see how comfortable cars were back then. Some cars looked like a sofa on the inside. I bought Studebaker t-shirt for $8 because it was a kid size 14-16. Jon bought a model car that looks like his 1951.

We realized that we lost another hour e.g. we’re 3 hours ahead now. Too bad we found out when we were at the Museum because we had one less hour to spend there.
After the museum, we went to Mcdonald’s to get a Oreo Mcflurry. We asked for the large one so that Jon and I could share but they gave us the normal size. Apparently, they don’t have large ones like we have at home. Surprising eh? We were a little disappointed.

We are staying at the Travelodge in Grand Rapids, Michigan. For dinner we went to a Chinese/Japanese Restaurant. We ordered potstickers, sweet and sour pork and house special fried rice. The potstickers were quite good. The others were “edible” as Jon describes. The owner of the restaurant was actually asian. She was from Taiwan. Earlier, I picked up a take out menu which said that the fried rice was $2.99. However, when we sat down, it was $7. The special was only for take out orders. However, we didn’t know it at the time so we decided to eat at the restaurant. When we were seated we looked at the menu and saw $7. As we were about to ask for take out, the Taiwanese owner came and talked to us. Jon and I felt bad so we just ate there. At least we have breakfast for tomorrow.

Jon attacked me with a Twizzler again. He tried to poke my nose. He was unsuccessful. Haha.

Have a good night!
