I often see people show off places theyve been in news posts so I thought I'd give it a try! So recently I went to visit my sister who lives in Louisville and honestly it was so beautiful there. I wish I got to experience the nature more but there was a walking trail that I skated over that lead to this gorgeous view of the Ohio River

Afterwards my sister informed me she had a really cool surprise for me, and after driving half an hour we stopped at the mall where she instructed me to "buy some really cool clothes", so naturally I bought jeans with big skulls on them. Afterwards we drove another hour and a half deep into Kentucky until we arrived in this big stadium, still having no idea what it was for we went in

Evidently it was a concert for Blink-182, which I was ecstatic for considering they've been one of my favorite bands for years! It was also really cool because my sister had seen them live about 3 or 4 times before and I had always expressed how awesome it must've been to see them when they first started blowing up. After a few opening bands and my sister having to have 7 people stand up so she could use the bathroom at least 4 times (she found the cash bar) Blink-182 took the stage! They blew me away, hearing all the songs live in a stadium packed with speakers was insane!! The side banter on stage was hilarious, which had humor that was perfectly matched to the beanie I bought from the merch booth that reads "your mom". The megatron had graphics over the live footage the entire time which was also just going to show how polished the performance was. Eventually the pyrotechnics kicked off, fireworks popping off on top, confetti and streamer cannons raining down over the stage, and vents on the actual stage that shot out fire. It was incredibly sick to see, expecially as a surprise. After several hours of having our minds blown song after song, we stumbled out into the street, and outside we found a Blink-182 themed halfpipe for photo ops, and obviously I had to take some pictures there

Being tired, sore, and sweaty, we embarked on a journey to find something to eat. The parking garage was a nightmare so we left off on foot where we found a bodega which even at midnight, had an open kitchen. Naturally we left with soda and pizza that we ate in the parking garage which has since emptied out. We then drove the 2 hours home, blasting Blink and talking about how sick the show was and what the shows she went to 2 decades ago were like.

Overall the trip there was both very relaxing and incredibly fun and for those considering visiting Louisville or even Kentucky as a whole, I highly recommend it as the nature alone is gorgeous
