A Weekend Adventure!

It was only the second week back to school, and my head had been in a C-Clamp for three days straight.
Alright, so maybe that's a slight exaggeration, but those three days were really quite unpleasant and rather unproductive.
What I needed was a serious stress break!
Luckily...
the opportunity presented itself in the form of a:
WEEKEND ADVENTURE!

So it was up early (for a Saturday) to catch the 9:14 bus, which bounced me and Hannah a few blocks away from our first stop -

~The May Day~

After mulling over many wonderful choices, I decided to go with apricot granola, and Jasmine green tea.  The next-in-line customer applauded my decision, claiming that the granola was 

"the best I have ever eaten in my life!"  

I've got to admit...it was probably the most tastefully fantastic granola I have ever eaten in my life!

Maybe it was just the magic of the adventure, perhaps the atmosphere of the cafe, or the European vibes radiating from the tiny pitcher in which my milk was served.

Whatever it was...it was wonderful!

Laughter, chatter, crunchings and munchings ensued until we were ready for the second part of our adventure...  

You always need a good "thin ice" sign to have an authentic lake-skating experience!

Not having skated in a while, we were both quite rusty.  With the help of some split-second-shots however, we looked like regular old figure skating pros!

What I actually looked like most of the time:

What I wish I looked like all the time:

We ended up staying much longer than we had planned, and just had a terrifically jovial time all around!  It was waiting for the bus back that I realized I can't had any inkling of a headache the entire morning!  My aching woes had been cured by the magic of good fun - and it felt fantastic.
