The Truth About Traveling With Your Friends

It is so much fun, but everyone will get grouchy so be patient.

The Truth About Traveling With Your Friends
Carlye Washington

Over this Christmas break, I decided to drive 12 hours to Wisconsin from Mississippi. We wanted to go skiing, so we just decided to take a road trip. We stopped in St. Louis to take pictures with the arch then proceeded on to Wisconsin.

The drive was long. Not as long as you would think, but we were all tired by the end of it. We had all started getting a little grouchy. By the time we got there, we just wanted to order pizza and go to bed. We decided to play a card game too because why not? We did not have anything pressing for our time.

The first day we chose to explore the town we had decided to vacation to. We spent way more money on cheese than one probably should and got ready to cook dinner for ourselves. We decided to grill and have a family dinner then went to the hot tub.

The second day we decided to go snow tubing, and there is a good chance that one or more people will fly into the snow bank separating the tubing lanes. The skiing day was the most eventful. Four kids from Mississippi learning to ski should be a reality show. Two of us were really good at it and loved it. The other two of us were not so good at it. There was a young boy that ended up helping me maneuver the bunny slope because I couldn't do it myself.

A road trip with your friends will show you a little more of everyones personalities and you are most likely gonna learn something new about them no matter how much you already know. Someone will become the "mom" of the group, and everyone will have a great time. If you ever have the chance to travel with your friends, I 100% think you should.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
