Valentine's Day






Hello! We decided to tour Hull for our Valentines get away. We had just been at the Prospect Center where they were passing out choclate and roses to women that were shopping. And to top it off, those who were doing it were dressed up in tuxes! Next is the largest Parish in England. If it had been any bigger it would be considered a Cathedral. We also went to the Deep (which was packed with people and lots of kids), but we only have video of that. The Deep is the only submarine aquarium, which means it's set up like an aquarium with the ability to see water creatures like if you were in a submarine. We saw lots of sharks, sting rays, other fish, and an octopus. We were there for the feeding, where divers go and feed the animals. It was a special day because the divers brought down a laminated poster that read "Natalie, will you marry me?" It was in the paper the next day, so it was some big news! Yes, she said yes. Anywho, we went for dinner at ASK where we got our heart shaped pizza! But, to top the holiday off, we went home to relax and were stricken with fright when our fire alarm went off. Apparently there was a huge pipe blockage that was accummulated from three flats and when a ton of water goes down the sewer drain, it gets stuck and goes up the sink in the bathroom hall. Luckily, that bathroom isn't in anybody's apartment. So, when that flooded, it reached the bottom floor alarm and messed it up. So, no fire, lots of panic, and finally a good night's rest ended our day.
