It is hard to get appointments for a driver's license or permit at the DPS stations close by for the date you want unless you log on months in advance, so when I went to make Jonah's appointment, I decided to pick a place a little farther away and make a little trip out of it during our Spring Break. So we chose Paris, Texas.
We drove up in the afternoon and walked around the downtown, We stopped at a little ice cream shop called "Sundae in Paris" and had some delicious ice cream floats. After that, we went back to the hotel to go swimming. The pool was closed at our hotel, so we had to use the pool at the hotel next door. We ate dinner at a little diner across the highway from the hotel. Then we hung out in the room and watched TV and fell asleep. The next morning, we had breakfast at the hotel and then we went and visited the Eiffel tower with the cowboy hat on it and the Jesus in cowboy boots statue/grave marker in the cemetery. Then we went to the Veteran's Memorial, which was pretty cool. After that we toured an old historic home. The next stop on our agenda was the DPS for Jonah's permit, which he got. After that, we drove home, stopping at Braum's for lunch on the way. It was a nice little trip and now Jonah can work on getting his license!
