Battle Creek, MI

So...we got our rock star bus last night and it's AMAZING!!!!!!!!! Paul and I don't have bunks across from eachother which we had been hoping for, but it's ok. We both got top bunks so at least that worked out according to plan. The bus has satellite TV in both the front and back lounges, personal DVD players in each bunk with wireless headphones and wireless internet. Plus we have a kitchen and a bathroom where the rules are you can't go number 2 and no flushing toilet paper, gotta throw it away in the garbage. It's not total luxury, but still pretty fantastic! Here are some pics...

The first pic is the front lounge/kitchen with a view into the sleeping area where paul is straddling the two middle bunks in order to access his top bunk (you will see a close up of this in photo 4). Photo 2 is our bathroom, please take note of the brown shag toilet cover. I love it!
Photo 3 is the back lounge and if you ignore the light of the flash in the mirror you can also see the whole space in the reflection. Photo 4 is the close up of Paul trying to get his bunk together.



































It is currently raining here in Battle Creek which stinks, but before the rain started I went on a walk around town with our stage manager, Kevin, and no lie, the town smells like cereal. This is the cereal capital and we are across the street from the Kellogg factory and our venue for the show is the Kellogg Arena. The scent changes depending on what they are making and I swear that today was cocoa puffs (although I'm not sure if they are a Kellogg product, if not, some other chocolatey cereal).
Paul left this afternoon to go home to Seattle until friday and I miss him already. I'm glad he will be back for my birthday on Saturday though!
I'm off to enjoy my green tea from Starbucks (the starbucks in the hotel is the largest in all of Michigan) and watch a little ABC Family. Just like home!

Thanks for stopping by!
