The Ikea Word for Pictures is Bilder

Wash your hands before you look at the pictures?

A rare pic from inside a bathroom. Don't worry, there was no one else in there, so it's not that creepy. I got a laugh at this sign, and its "bad math" over the estimated time it would take to name 10 Ikea products. Even if you were reading off a list, it would take a lot longer! If you didn't guess, we are in the Ikea store.

El Restauranta

Whoops! Sorry once again that I skipped a week. I usually like to post a new thing at least once a week. I'll try not to be so much of a slacker, thanks for checking back.

Who wants to go out? Let's go out and get some pictures to share.

Nothing like taking pictures of the menu to remember where you ate. It's my friend's favorite Mexican place, so I don't mind giving the free bump to them. I know the Aztecs were from the area now known as Mexico, but do they still count as "Mexican" somehow? Or am I being too nerdy to ask such an odd question?

Some Comic Shops and Stuff

 Hi! I'm back with more pictures. Enjoy the fun comments on 'em.

They're doing a lot of construction on this highway, so I'm totally parked on the road. They put a little ship in a circle on the wall over there. It repeats over and over, on each wall section, it's the same ship. I wonder what ship it is? Is there some kind of story to go along with it?

Another Antiques Posting

 Mega Antiques! I went to the giant Barrett Street antique shop in Virginia Beach again. I've been here before but there's always cool old stuff to check out. There's a lot of pictures and I just thought I'd group them all together, so it's a little more than I usually post.

Check out the big Clay's Motel sign. If your name is Clay, get over here quick! Hoo Boy do we have a sign for you!

Trains-formers

 Allllll Abooooaaaarrrdddd! Now leaving, stops at Pictures and Fun Comments. Have your tickets ready.

I came across these Transformers trains, it's from some kind of set where they all combine together to make a giant train robot. Each one looked super cool and all six of them were here at the 2nd & Charles store. I had to take an extra picture of the prices, I didn't believe how expensive they were, either.

Golfing Around

Sorry for the delay, I usually try to post something at least once a week. I guess I was slacking off for no reason. Thanks for checking back! Now on to the pictures:

Small golf! My friends were playing Pictionary decades ago, and while trying to draw "Mini Golf" one of the guesses was instead (repeated over and over a few times) "small golf" and forever afterwards they joke about the funny wrong guess. Kind of like when you use a quote from a movie, but like, a real-life version of that. Anyway, we played some Small Golf and I got some pictures.

Behind the Ocean Breeze Fun Park in Virginia Beach, there is a mountain of minigolf. Pirates themed. Could you tell by the big pirate ship in the lake? Nobody questions the logic of a ship in a lake. It's just a theme.

Olympics Paris 2024 on TV

Olympics! Quick let's all talk about it before we forget. I didn't know how many pictures I was going to take of my TV while watching, but it turns out it was enough to make a group of pictures out of. I didn't get every highlight, there are other internet places to watch the crazy Australian Breaking dancer, for example. But let's see what I found interesting...

The first thing we need to mention is the Eiffel Tower and how cool that thing is as a visual centerpiece for the city of Paris. There're a few other cities with huge landmark things, and after seeing this for a couple of weeks, I think every city needs something like this. Not like, more towers exactly like this, just... something unique and unmistakable.
