Julio, Don Julio ~ Welcome Home!

Nothing like adding a little more chaos to the mix.  Right before we leave for a cruise I fell in love with this cute little guy and HAD to bring him home!  Welcome to the family Julio, Don Julio!

On the River

SunTrust Park - Braves vs Nationals

To continue our ongoing baseball stadium tour, we snuck off from our family visit in Georgia/North Carolina to visit SunTrust Park.  The Braves versus the Nationals! I'm pretty sure Ryan was the only person in the park wearing a Nationals jersey.  🤣

This stadium was interesting.  It was a sold-out game and we had standing room only tickets.  The most memorable things from this stadium were the zipline and Brown Sugar Bourban frozen lemonade (not so good).   The coolest thing was watching the lightning storm around the stadium and then when they turned the lights off and Braves Fans turned on their cell phone lights for the Tomahawk Chop! 

For future visits there is a hotel that looks right into the park, so check that out and be sure to get a room with a balcony on the stadium side.  That would be AWESOME!

Cam took the picture, but forgot to get in! I see your hat, barely!

Great American Ballpark - Reds vs Cardinals

I'm excited we got to visit Great American Ballpark.  I remember watching the Reds play as a child and visiting Riverfront Stadium a time or two.  

The view from this ballpark was AWESOME, right on the river and across from Kentucky.  

I couldn't get in and find my Skyline Chili fast enough!  But when I did I was in heaven!  There is nothing like having some Cincinnati Chili in Cincinnati AND from the best! Oh and a Yasiel Puig bobblehead. 😊

 

Progressive Field - Cleveland Indians vs Detroit Tigers

We got into the stadium right when gates opened and the nicest lady (an employee of the stadium) told us about the coolest thing!  She said near right field there will be another staff member handing out wristbands, which give you access to spend an inning in the old bullpen.  We raced into the ballpark and got our wristbands. We were the first group so we got to watch the 1st inning there.  What an experience!

And then.......  beer!  

 

Fat Head!
