A distance.
Pairing: poly!nick nelson x m!reader x Charlie spring.
Trigger warnings: none, long distance relationships.
Pt 2.
Request.
Tumblr media
You sit in your new apartment, surrounded by unpacked boxes and the vibrant sounds of the city outside. It’s a bit overwhelming, but you feel a rush of excitement as you pull out your phone, ready to record a vlog for Nick and Charlie.
“Hey, guys!” you begin, your energy bubbling over. “So, I finally got my place sorted! Check out this view.” You turn the camera to capture the bustling street below, filled with colorful shops and people. “I miss you both so much, but I’m thinking about you all the time!”
As the video continues, you stroll through your new neighborhood, stopping to film a colorful market. “Look at all these fresh fruits! You’d love this, Nick—so many options for smoothies. I’m definitely trying to recreate our favorites!”
You laugh, imagining Nick’s excited reaction, then move to a small park nearby. “And look at this park! It’s perfect for those long chats we used to have. I can’t wait to bring you both here someday.”
Later that evening, you nestle onto your bed, surrounded by fairy lights that give the space a cozy glow. It’s late for you, but early morning for Nick and Charlie. You dial their number, your heart fluttering at the thought of hearing their voices.
After a few rings, Nick picks up, still half-asleep. “Hey!” he yawns, rubbing his eyes. “You’re up late?”
“Yeah, I wanted to catch you before my day starts!” you reply, your excitement bubbling over. “How did you sleep?”
Charlie chimes in, his voice bright and alert. “We were just talking about how much we miss you. Your vlogs make it feel like you’re still here.”
“I’m glad!” you say, feeling warmth spread through you. “I wish you could see it all in person. The food is amazing, and I found this great coffee shop that reminds me of our favorite back home.”
As you talk, you share stories of your adventures—learning to navigate the public transport system, funny language mishaps, and the quirky locals you’ve met. The laughter fills the space, making the distance feel less daunting. You can almost see Nick and Charlie smiling, their faces lighting up with every tale you tell.
You find yourself at a charming café, sipping a rich latte as you prepare to send another vlog. You focus the camera on the latte art, capturing the intricate design, then turn it toward yourself, grinning widely. “Hey, Nick and Charlie! Guess what? I just made a new friend here!”
You share snippets of your day, from exploring hidden gems in the city to trying local delicacies that leave you craving more. “I can’t wait for you both to visit. I promise to show you all my favorite spots! It’s not the same without you, though. I miss our hangouts.”
As you wrap up the vlog, you lean in closer to the camera. “Just know that no matter the distance, you both are always in my thoughts. I’m counting down the days until we can all be together again.”
Despite the time zones and physical distance, your connection with Nick and Charlie remains strong. Each update you share keeps them engaged in your life, bridging the gap with every moment, every laugh, and every ounce of love. You’re all committed to making this work, no matter the miles between you, knowing that your bond can withstand anything life throws your way.

Despite the chaos of a large family, she maintained a close-knit bond with them, although at times they could be overwhelming. — As the only girl among her siblings, Ysla was both protected and challenged by her brothers. They were fiercely protective of her, always looking out for her well-being and making sure she felt safe and loved.  — However, being the only girl also meant that Ysla had to keep up with their antics and rough-and-tumble play. Ysla's bond with her brothers was unbreakable, shaped by a lifetime of shared experiences and unwavering support. — From a young age, Ysla knew she wanted to teach, a career path she pursued with unwavering determination. Graduating as the magna cum laude with a degree in education, she immediately became a preschool teacher, fulfilling her lifelong dream. — It was during her time as a teacher that Ysla developed a deep bond with Mirabel, one of her students. Mirabel often stayed late at school under Ysla's care due to her mother's demanding work schedule. Over time, Ysla not only became a trusted caregiver for Mirabel but also formed a close friendship with her mother, who appreciated Ysla's kindness and dedication. — Tragically, a hit and run accident took the lives of Mirabel and her mother, leaving Ysla and her family shattered. The mother and daughter were on the way to Ysla’s house when tragedy struck. The loss of her beloved student and friend plunged Ysla into a state of deep depression, and she struggled to cope with the void left by their absence. — It was during this dark period that Ysla stumbled upon a video of Mirabel taken by her mother expressing their desire to travel the world with her. Touched by their unfulfilled dream and inspired by their memory, Ysla made a life-changing decision.  — In honor of Mirabel's wish and as a tribute to her enduring bond with both mother and daughter, Ysla embarked on a journey to fulfill their dream, starting her own YouTube channel, Wander With Ysla, to document her global adventures. — At first, her family was hesitant about her traveling so far from home.

Hidden Gems in Bangkok Every Vlogger Must Capture
Hidden Gems in Bangkok offer unique and offbeat locations that every vlogger must explore. While the city’s bustling markets and temples are well-documented, several lesser-known spots provide fresh content opportunities.
Discover the Best Hidden Gems in Bangkok for Vloggers
1. Talad Rot Fai (Train Night Market) — A Vlogger’s Paradise
Most travelers visit Chatuchak Market, but Talad Rot Fai, also known as the Train Night Market, offers an authentic experience. The vintage-style stalls, neon-lit bars, and quirky antiques make for an incredible backdrop. Capture Bangkok’s nightlife with stunning street food shots and candid vendor moments.
2. Bang Kachao — The Green Lung of Bangkok
Escape the city’s hustle and explore Bang Kachao, an urban oasis known for its lush greenery and tranquil atmosphere. Rent a bicycle and capture breathtaking shots of floating markets, wooden walkways, and the picturesque Sri Nakhon Khuean Khan Park.
3. Chang Chui Creative Park — An Artistic Gem
A paradise for artistic vloggers, Chang Chui Creative Park is a hub of innovation and creativity. The open-air venue features street art, contemporary sculptures, and a decommissioned aeroplane turned into a restaurant. The mix of modern and rustic aesthetics makes it a dream location for cinematic storytelling.
4. Erawan Museum — A Cultural Treasure
Home to a massive three-headed elephant statue, the Erawan Museum boasts intricate artwork, colourful stained-glass ceilings, and cultural artifacts. Vloggers can explore Thai history while capturing awe-inspiring architecture and sacred ambience.

7. Wat Samphran (The Dragon Temple) — A Mystical Wonder
Unlike Bangkok’s famous temples, Wat Samphran remains relatively unexplored. Its standout feature is a 17-story pink tower wrapped in a dragon sculpture. The temple’s mystical architecture and panoramic views make for visually captivating vlog content.

For street art enthusiasts, Chaloemla Park is a must-visit. This hidden alley is filled with striking murals, colorful graffiti, and creative artwork, adding an urban and edgy vibe to your vlog.

How to Plan a Last-Minute Travel Adventure
In today's fast-paced world, spontaneity is a luxury that many yearn for. A sudden urge to pack your bags and embark on an impromptu journey is exhilarating, but it also brings forth unique challenges. Fear not, because with the right tips and a dash of enthusiasm, planning a last-minute travel adventure can be seamless. Dive in and discover the ins and outs of organizing a spontaneous getaway.
1. Flexible Itineraries: The Heart of Spontaneity
Last-minute travels thrive on flexibility. Instead of fixed plans, embrace a go-with-the-flow attitude.
Tip: Consider open-jaw tickets, where you fly into one city and out from another. It offers more exploration freedom.
2. Deal Hunters: Grab Those Discounts
A spontaneous decision doesn't mean emptying your wallet. Airlines, hotels, and tour operators often offer last-minute deals.
Tip: Use travel comparison websites or apps like Skyscanner, Kayak, and Last Minute Travel to snag those deals.
3. Packing Like a Pro: The 20-Minute Challenge
Spontaneity means quick packing. The trick lies in essentials.
Tip: Keep a pre-packed bag with toiletries, universal chargers, and essential clothing. For your spontaneous escapades, toss in specifics and you're good to go!
4. Visa-Free or Visa-on-Arrival Destinations
Navigating visa requirements on short notice can be daunting. Focus on destinations offering visa-free entry or visa-on-arrival for your nationality.
Tip: Websites like VisaHQ can quickly provide visa requirements based on your passport.
5. Off-Peak Adventures: Avoid the Crowds
Last-minute plans during peak seasons might mean crowded destinations. Instead, explore off-peak or shoulder-season gems.
Tip: Not only do you enjoy a more serene environment, but off-peak periods often come with slashed prices.
6. Local's Perspective: Dive Deep
Short on planning time? Tap into local insights. From hole-in-the-wall eateries to hidden attractions, locals offer the best recommendations.
Tip: Platforms like Couchsurfing or Meetup organize local events and meetups, making it easy to connect with residents.
7. Digital Navigators: Your Smartphone is a Goldmine
In our digital age, a smartphone is your ultimate travel ally. From last-minute bookings to navigation, everything is at your fingertips.
Tip: Pre-load essential apps like Google Maps, Airbnb, Uber, and TripAdvisor. Download offline maps of your destination.
8. Embrace the Unknown: Stay Safe
While spontaneity is thrilling, safety remains paramount. Ensure your spontaneous choices don't compromise your well-being.
Tip: Register with your country's embassy upon arrival, share your itinerary with close ones, and always have a backup plan.
9. Overcome Language Barriers: Connect and Communicate
Last-minute decisions might land you in places where your native tongue isn't widely spoken.
Tip: Apps like Duolingo for basic phrases and Google Translate for on-the-spot translations can be lifesavers.
10. Document the Adventure: Unscripted Memories
Last-minute trips often result in the most unexpected memories. Capture them!
Tip: Use instant cameras for a vintage touch or start a vlog to chronicle your spontaneous journey.
Conclusion
A last-minute travel adventure is a dance between chaos and beauty, offering a fresh perspective on spontaneity and life's unpredictable joys. In the words of travel writer Bill Bryson, "I can't think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost everything."
So the next time wanderlust strikes without warning, don't be hesitant. Embrace the unknown, tap into these planning tips, and set forth on a journey that promises unexpected twists, boundless adventures, and stories that last a lifetime. The world is vast, and sometimes, the best stories are written on the spur of the moment. Happy unplanned travels!

Hiii! May I request a romantic Tommyinnit x (male! if possible, but if not that's fine too!) reader where the reader is also a vlogger visiting NY.
Basically, one of Tommy's tasks is to find another vlogger and he comes across the reader who is filming a travel vlog? - Anon2
Absolutely! It's a little short, but I made up for it with a bit of a flirty reader :D
Pairing: CC!Tommyinnit x Male!Reader
Viral Vlogger
Tumblr media
Out of the many places you've been, New York City has to be among the busiest. Between the cars and people, a constant headache thrummed alongside the anxiety that came with traveling. The locals must be able to see some pattern that you can’t, hence why you escaped to a random park.
While being a vlogger, you’ve discovered a few important things. People look at you a little less weirdly if you call your vlog a movie, traveling alone is recipe for disaster, and parks are the best place to escape to. As long as the park wasn’t famous, that is.
Most tourists flocked to the more popular places, leaving the little parks behind. The locals, on the other hand, knew all the hidden gems and tended to find respite in the parks just like you did. Some of the best conversations you’ve ever had happened because you decided to hide in a park.
“Lighting here should be good enough.” You mumble to yourself.
Your cameraman and best friend was meeting with family, leaving you to record by yourself for the day. Normally you two were like the setup for a bad joke: two guys, a camera, and the sights of the world.
Holding out the camera, you do a little spin around to show off the park. “I know what you’re thinking. He’s done it again! He’s found another park! And yes, yes I have. Do I look like a city boy? Hell no. I’m hoping to be able to speak with some cool people today, get some insight on what really goes on in this city. As much as I love the sights of broadway and famous landmarks, this city is more than its looks. It’s the people. And you guys just love when I embarrass myself in front of people, so there’s also that.”
You laugh, glancing around to try and find someone who’s close and looks friendly.
“Excuse me?” The voice comes from behind you, making you jump. “Are you a vlogger?”
Turning, you find another guy with a camera pointed at you. He’s wearing a shit-eating grin. Looks like you have competition, huh?
“No, I just carry around this camera for fun.” You deadpan.
“Oh. Uh-“
“Yes, I’m a vlogger.”
“Aha! There can only be one vlogger around these parts, and that’s me!”
He’s British, something you missed the first times he spoke. With the newfound information that he’s both British and a vlogger, you take a closer look at him. Despite having weirdly blue eyes and nearly golden-blond hair, his defining feature has to be his smile.
“Who even are you?" You ask, going along with whatever joke he's playing.
With a fake gasp, he screams, "YOU BASTARD! HOW FUCKING DARE YOU?! I AM THE TOM SIMONS!"
Listen, you'd say you're pretty well versed in most of the travel vloggers out there. That being said, you've never heard of Tom Simons.
"Well, Tom Simons, I'm-"
"You're loser boy." He interrupts. "And I'm the king vlogger."
"Okay, if anyone here is the loser boy it's you."
"I AM A MAN!"
"There's no way you're older than nineteen."
His mouth opens and closes, and you know you've got him.
"I think I'll be taking your crown, child."
"Hey! You aren't older than nineteen either, you fucking bitch!"
"No, but I'm cooler."
For a second his angry expression drops to reveal a glimpse of a smile before it's back on. With a little bit of surprise, you realize you're enjoying messing around with him.
"And I'm hotter." He responds, fanning himself.
You literally cannot dispute that, seeing as you just called yourself cool. There's no way you're letting him win this now though. Not after you've gotten yourself invested.
"Maybe cuter."
Well, fuck. While it was a response, it wasn't the one that was meant to come out of your mouth. Flirting, really?
He's flushes red, turning away from you to face the camera. "Average Tom Simons viewer, am I right guys?"
The girl holding the camera covers her mouth to stop her laughter from being picked up by the mic. Tom turns back to you, a slightly different smile on now.
"So, you're vlogging New York City?"
"Yeah, I'm a travel vlogger." You answer.
"That's sick!" Maybe he wasn't a travel vlogger. That'd certainly explain why you'd never heard of him. "How long have you been here for?"
"A few days. You?"
"A whole ass week. I'm pretty much an expert now."
"Really? You should show me the best places around then, expert Tom Simons."
Flirting, but this time with a bit more tact. While you certainly hadn't come to NYC looking for love, you didn't mind possibly finding one. You were already crushing on him just from the fifteen minutes you've spent joking around!
"I will then, loser boy."
"Loser is one letter away from lover, you know."
Tom sputters before crossing his arms. He really never backed down.
"Fine then, lover boy. That was fucking cringe as shit. Fuck that. Let's just go explore the city together and have a whirlwind romance so I can forget you tomorrow."
You laugh, tucking your camera away. "Deal."
The next morning, you wake up with a text from a new contact in your phone. Guess he didn't forget you in a day after all.
One new message from Tom the NYC expert

hi girl, i absolutely love your fics! could you do a blurb or one shot where the reader is a youtuber and harry is in some of her vlogs? kinda similar to how jesse rutherford and devon carlson’s relationship is? if you can’t do it, i understand! thank you🤎
i love this idea so much, thank you for sending it in!! i hope it was near enough what you hoped it to be! 💕
“Morning my sunshines! Rise and shine with me this morning!”
You stretched as you held your Canon camera above your head, smiling the best you could. Before you could shut your camera off Harry tackled you from behind, where you were both laid in his bed, and buried his face in your neck blowing raspberries and leaving kisses.
“Harry stop!” You giggled contently, leaving your hand to guide your camera to film the silly moment between the both of you.
“Sorry you’re just so fucking pretty in a morning. You could at least give me a chance to try.” Harry untucked his head from your neck to talk to you, you mentally making a note to bleep out his curse words later when you edit.
You had started your vlog channel 4 years ago, so 2 years before meeting Harry. You made it clear to Harry that if he wanted a relationship with you he couldn’t stop you from posting on your youtube channel. It was your life. You weren’t willing to give up all your hard work just because, which Harry respected you highly for. You promised him that he wouldn’t be in any of your content without his consent, and you’d be okay if he never wanted to be involved. The supportive boyfriend Harry is, though, loved being apart of your life and work. He loved being part of the vlogs, never not watching a video as soon as it’s uploaded.
He always leaves comments under a pseudonym and likes the videos - anything to show his support. Your most recent youtube video is always linked in his instagram bio and will promote any of your content on his instagram stories too. He was simply the best. He was more supportive than anyone else in your life. He loved how your content was effectively a time capsule and he wouldn’t miss being a part of the journey for a Stevie Nicks signed mug.
“But you are so pretty.” You pouted at him from an unflattering angle.
“Thank you baby.” He kissed your nose once and then your forehead twice and finally your lips too many times. Too many to the point where you had to turn off your camera before you started filming a porno.
It was later and you were out for the day.
“So, my lovelies, me and Harry—”
“Harry and I.” Harry rudely corrected you, as you walked hand-in-hand along the street.
“Sod off you,” you joked, trying to pull away from him which only resulted in him pulling you closer and delivering an abundance of kisses to your head, “Harry and I just went and bought some fruit to make a fruit salad for his mum’s garden party tomorrow. I’m not going to vlog that, though, because it’s quite personal to me. Sorry!”
Harry squeezed your hand, letting you know silently he was proud of you. Looking back at this footage you’ll always remember that squeeze of his hand.
It was important to you.
“Baby let’s just go in here a minute.” Harry pulled you into a little café. It had a beautiful interior decor and you were amazed by the choice on the menu. The tables were all wooden and blanketed with yellow gingham cloths. The chairs were actually swings that hung from the ceiling from thick ropes, which were covered in fairy lights. There was creeping ivy along the walls and a gorgeous number of yellow roses in each tables plant pot.
“Guys look at this place!” You stated in awe, turning your camera around to show off the unique discovery. “It’s called ‘The Yellow Teacup’ and it’s a hidden gem.” You announced, giving them the address too in case any of your subscribers wanted to come for themselves.
“What do you want, love?” Harry asked you, obviously already having ordered his drink and waiting for you - as was the employee.
“Oh sorry, um,” you took at quick glance at the menu, “can I just have a green tea please?”
“Sure!” The lovely lady behind the counter said, “I love your content by the way Y/N! It’s so calming to watch.”
It always warmed your heart to hear that your silly youtube videos were actually making a difference. You couldn’t care less about all the hate. It was stories like this lady’s that made it all worth it at the end of the day.
“Thank you that means so much..” you looked at her name badge, “Gloria.”
Harry told her a personal thanks from him too, happily complying when she asked for a photo with him. She asked for one with you too.
“Be in my vlog please?” You asked her, to which she looked at you as if you were crazy you had to ask. But consent was your golden rule and you never broke it, not even with Harry. “Hey lovelies! This is my new best friend Gloria and if you come to ‘The Yellow Teacup’ she will put a smile on your face. Also she makes a mean green tea!” Gloria waved hi and both blew kisses towards the camera.
Harry watched in awe.
He seriously couldn’t love you anymore if he fucking tried. You were just perfect, with everything you did. You’d just made Gloria’s day without even realising and they made his day too. You were everything and you were all his.

Diary of a Junebug

Finding hidden gems at Crystal Cove
They say that the Crystal Cove is one of the few places where the sun doesn't shine and yet no one notices. For a place that's entirely underground with no way for sunlight to seep through, you wouldn't be able to tell. Luminescent crystals are the main light source as they're pretty much everywhere so there's no worry about getting lost in the dark.
Thanks to Daisy Jane and Anne, we managed to book an expedition, which includes staying at the hotel with all expenses paid. It was a friend of a friend type thing as the place usually fills up quickly, even more so with a larger party like ours.
Anne had to make reservations so far in advance - like nearly two years ago - it didn't feel real until I actually got there. To be honest, I almost completely forgot about it until Anne called us up about it and I later got an email from the hotel. And now here we are, exploring the Crystal Cove and learning a lot about all kinds of rocks!
I've been following Anne on social media for a long time - one of the few I've known since the early days and still follow. She's a lifestyle vlogger and musician who's known for her optimism. What I like about her is that she's not overly positive to the point it blinds you to reality - she makes you look for the good while acknowledging that not everything will be sunshine and rainbows. In other words, her optimism is grounded and it's refreshing to see and hear.
I have to say, Anne has been a great help to me, especially after I finished college and didn't know what to do with myself. A lot of her videos are prompts involving self reflection, which really helped me when I needed direction. As for meeting her in person, she's just as sweet and sunny off camera.
Anne's got an interesting life and it was the hardships she went through in childhood that inspired her to start Sunshine After Rain. When she was little, her parents taught her a little game where they try to find the good in anything. It was something that Anne applied to a lot of things in her everyday life, becoming a little ray of sunshine for those who need it. As she got older, she realized how much her optimism can change lives for the better, especially after becoming orphaned and having to live with her aunt, a relative who was a complete stranger at the time.
The first few years of Anne's life with her aunt was life changing as she went through a lot. It was Anne who brought people together as well as helped her aunt move on from the past. She has a way of reaching out to others, being perspective and compassionate - it's amazing how many lives she touched. In return, they helped her get through hard times when she had trouble finding the silver lining after a serious illness left her unable to walk ever again.
Of course, Anne pulled through the hard times - which she credits to her friends and family. That was what led to her making vlogs that eventually became Sunshine After Rain. At the time it was just a bunch of random vlogs about Anne's day to day life around town as well as some chats about what it's like to go around in a wheelchair, how to cope with grief and loss, and how to pick yourself back up after things go wrong. Over time she built a community of friends and Anne was able to inspire more people - something she'd never imagine that she was capable of.
Along with being an inspirational figure, Anne also dabbles in music. As a teen she had a somewhat prolific stint as an artist before pursuing Sunshine After Rain full time. She said the singing thing came by chance when she was discovered by a talent agent during a choir performance. At fourteen she had a hit single, Dance Carnival, which served as the opening of a TV show. Then that led to other movies and shows featuring her music - she wasn't a big name but she was recognizable.
Anne still posts covers and originals from time to time as well as an active member of the community choir. Not too long ago she posted an updated version of Dance Carnival and it's kinda like a new interpretation of the song. What I mean is that Dance Carnival (the original) is clearly an early 2000's pop song, so while it still holds up in my opinion, it also sounds quite dated in terms of production. It's not necessarily a bad thing though - it adds to the charm. The new version with a simple arrangement that's less pop as well as being sung by an older Anne, it shows how versatile the song is by giving it a new interpretation.
Turns out a lot of people thought the same based on the comments. Anne never thought her Dance Carnival cover would be such a hit so now she's inspired to do more covers of old songs. I'm so looking forward to that - especially Dream of Love and Wait for Me.
Joining Anne on this outing are her two oldest friends, Caroline and Beanie. Caroline is her best friend from her hometown and Beanie was the first friend she made when she moved in with her aunt. They show up in Anne's vlogs from time to time, mainly Beanie as well as Jamie and Della, two other good friends. I've met Beanie a few times and he's like an older brother to Anne. In fact, it was Anne who helped him get adopted by a lonely neighbor, which in turn led to her aunt and the neighbor finally working things out after stuff happened that led to the end of their friendship.
It was a lot of fun navigating the Crystal Cove and hanging out with friends. There's all kinds of gemstones hidden around the walls - it's so colorful and pretty! I think my favorite is the golden jade because of the gold flecks and earthy greens. The rose lapis is also pretty, especially the heart shaped ones. Then there's the amethyst pearls that look like something straight out of a fantasy world. A lot of these gems aren't found in other places so that makes it even more exciting and special!
The caves were surprisingly easy to get around so there's no worry about us getting lost. And even if we do, the paths are clearly marked. Though getting lost in a place like this doesn't seem too bad - I wouldn't mind being surrounded by pretty crystals!
Anne and Beanie caught us up with what's been going on in town, from Anne's aunt setting up a fundraiser next week to donate to a shelter to Beanie's mother planning to give the mansion a makeover, and the Weatherbys being pretty much booked for the next few years with their ambitions - there's a lot going on. Caroline's on the move to Harrington, which is about half an hour away from Belleview, so Anne's looking forward to seeing her more. Beanie and Jamie are still in charge of the hotel/restaurant, which they have taken over after the owner moved while Della's in her second year of med school. After that Della's gonna join the clinic and maybe be in charge of it one day. And as usual, Anne's been checking in on everyone, stepping in when there's a problem, always working on keeping everyone - and herself - happy.
We spent most of the day exploring the caves and collecting treasures. According to the guidebook, there's over 5,000 different types of gems in here - many which are unique to this place. It's a miracle that the caves haven't been mined dry - I'd hate to think what would happen if it ever got to that point. As much as we're allowed to explore and collect, we also have to take care or else the Crystal Cove is no more.
Before heading back to the hotel we stopped by the museum to learn more about the caves and its gems. There's a cool exhibition that displays all the known gems that can be found so it was fun going through our finds and learning about them. Although we found a lot of different rocks, we barely made a dent. I think all together we found at least a couple hundred types, which is pretty awesome!
Instead of heading back to the hotel, we did a bit of sightseeing to find a place for dinner. We were planning to rest up before that but we got distracted by the museum. Since we didn't get to explore too much of it today, we're gonna come back tomorrow and visit the rest of the exhibits. I'm looking forward to the jewelry display as well as seeing the gift shop.
As expected, we were out until pretty late. Now it's almost two and I just settled down. Good thing the museum doesn't open till noon so we're planning to go there after brunch, likely spending most of the day there. Then maybe if it's not too busy we'll take a quick trip to the caves to find more hidden gems and if not, we'll do it the day after.
