Maybe it was overloaded?<br /><br />I'm pretty good at tuning things out, so I'm thinking I would have been OK in my own little happy place, but I'd rather not test it like that.Kilahttp://momto3cubs.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29569768.post-16017216544183577712010-06-30T11:25:21.675-07:002010-06-30T11:25:21.675-07:00Oh Pamela!!!

I really wonder if you talk about the same Hoover Dam I have seen beginning the 90th ! there was no security check you could walk around wherever you wanted and there were no guided tours as far as I remember. I have beautiful videos of the place and a very nice souvenir ! <br />It's terrible now with everything ! A little historical pebble to see and you have to pay for it. <br />If you go to my travel blog you will see the reconstitution of the Waterloo battle. For the first time since the 35 years I live here they made a big show out of it and big money too ! I had never to pay for that before !Gattinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06636525277807715146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29569768.post-39256241605200628732010-06-29T05:01:13.019-07:002010-06-29T05:01:13.019-07:00I swear, I had to take a Xanax to read this post!!...I swear, I had to take a Xanax to read this post!!!!
