Spring Break '09 Pt2

Ok, so i think i left off with being in Eureka.
Eureka is an interesting town. It has a lot of artistic style and there are quite a few places with fun knick-knacks, cool art, and a lot of good food (not just because of the local seafood). But it's weird at the same time, for even though there seems to be a lot of interesting places to go and see, it is really expensive to live there and there seems to be a lot of... deterioration? Not that there's decay, it's just that there aren't enough people there to really make use of the area. And it's cold! Not really on the same note but geez, it's always so cold there!
Whenever I try and recollect all that happened there in Eureka, the main thing that I always think of is the day Brittany and I got to walk around downtown Eureka. Not that the other days didn't have a lot going on, it's more that Eureka had the most to see and was probably the most interesting (and affordable! it's no fun to just always stare at things when i can never try it out, especially food...). I always see lots of little shops around that sell faerie stuff and glass ware, but in old town Eureka they finally did one right, with a lot of magical statues and fantastic wares that were really intricate in detail. It was very cool. There were also a lot of little snack shops along the way with tasty snacks that weren't overly expensive (like italian soda, baklava, and truffles). We ended our time in a square with a ton of pigeons that were very used to humans.

And i love this photo of a bunch of 'em getting ready to land.
Spring Break was a nice change from the usual. And went by waaay too fast
