Indiana Pacers

So we're still in Indianapolis having a great time, meeting lots and lots of really cool people who we've been hanging out with most days. We've been to see the local NBA Basketball team (Indiana Pacers) twice now, both times they lost but it's really great fun.

We're currently playing some cards with a few friends and having a few drinks ready for new years eve tomorrow.

Happy Birthday Connie

Christmas Eve

Well, today we got up - it was freezing and raining outside, so we didn't go into town. Garth, (the guy that runs this house) asked if we wanted to go to the supermarket with him, he also suggested we go to this all you can eat chinese buffet, which we did. So we went to the buffet and it was amazing, there was so much food, so much dessert, everything you can ask for. So then Garth took us around all of the supermarkets and stores and basically gave us a run down on allt he different places and what they sold, he was so funny too, constantly chatting with everyone and cracking jokes and messing with people. We then went to a Speedway to get fuel and had some of the 'best coffee around'. We bought a couple of staeks too, we chatted to the butcher in the supermarket called Bud about what we wanted to cook etc. he went out back and cut us 2 fresh ribeye for us tailor made! legend!

This evening we came back and chilled out, literally, outisde is freezing and the roads are covered in ice. Tomorrow is christmas and i think we're just going to cook good food, have a good time, watch the basketball because theres a few good games on.

Merry christmas everyone

Indianapolis

Arrived today in Indianapolis. This could well be the best hostel we have ever visited, first of all its a huge house converted, really clean, tidy, well decorated, and the guy that runs it is really nice (from England too). He picked us up from the greyhound terminal and brought us back, THEN made us a cup of tea, english tea, not american. THEN cooked us a turkey stir fry for the sake of it... we're not sure what the catch is just yet but he assures us that it was no problem atall!

We're going into town tomorrow to try get some NBA tickets for next week, then the guy is taking us to the super market so we can get some food for christmas day.

Happy birthday to Ruth too xxx
