Welcome to Washington

After our encounter with customs all we wanted was food. Typical of the girls in the van. We soon found this cool little Irish pub called Glynn's. We pulled in and were the only females in the place. Most of the other patrons were up at the bar having a beer. Soon someone brought us menus and we realized it was Glynn himself! (This was discovered from looking at the pic on the front of the menu.) We looked over the menu which was filled with items that we had no idea what they were. However, Glynn was very nice and the food was really good! We even ordered a pizza for the road. We were able to sit and eat and blog :) While we were eating another group of people came in and sat right behind us. When we heard them order a "jug" of beer Allie asked them if they were Canadian. They said yes and after some chit chat they told us that we should go visit Canada. We told them about our Canada adventure and they laughed at us....we were once again the dumb girls.

After getting the bill ready we left the money on the table and got up to leave. I guess this is not how things are done in Washington because all of a sudden Glynn appeared and loudly said, "Hey aren't you going to pay me??" That had the whole place looking at us. We told him that we had left the money on the table and he asked us if that was how we did things in Texas. Luckily he was very nice about it. While we fetched the money Glynn disappeared behind the bar. All of a sudden we heard, "Hey everyone these girls are on a roadtrip from Texas." He was speaking through a microphone! He then told everyone that we were going to have a chance to win $100! He told us that we could spin the wheel and if it landed on a 4 leaf clover we would wind the money. Sarah was up to spin first.....FAIL. Then he said we could spin for $50. Allie was up......FAIL. Finally he said he would give us one more chance to win $25! Kayla's turn.....FAIL. So, no money but it was still a lot of fun!
