Sacramento CA, Day 5

The Automobile Museum
I'm back! Journal, you would never guess in a million years where I am now. In California! And not just any place. I am in Sacramento. The capital city in California! On the first day of my visit here, I am not going to be doing much. I have found what appears to be a laid-back tourist attraction, funny as it sounds. I will be going to the California Automobile Museum! I loved the tour! Here are my reasons:
#1- Free parking
#2- As I was saying, not busy.
#3- The place was HUGE!!! So many old fashioned cars, and so much to learn about them! Like did you know the Chevy Nova had a hard time selling in Mexico because is the Spanish word for doesn't go. Good night journal.
50 foot drop- NOT FOR ME!!!

Today I wanted to go someplace with a little more kick to it. I went to Six Flags! Now, for those of you that don't know what Six Flags is, it is an amusement park that is famous for making you pee your pants on drops of usually over 100 feet. I, naturally, did NOT go on any of those rides. I stuck to the safe ones, such as the carousel or the teacups. But wait a minute! What carousel? What teacups? There were none! Just thrill packed, poop your pants roller coasters. This wasn't fun at all! I went home and took a nap before going out on an educational tour of Sacramento.

Sacramento has history in gold- which is why it became so populated in the first place. When a Switz named John Sutter came to town, he struck it rich on a heap of gold. Thinking that they were going to have just as good of luck, many others flooded the area. That is how such population came to Sacramento.

Goodbye Journal.
