I’d like to start this post by saying that Eureka Springs sucks. There is no reason to ever go there, even if your whole family goes, which just happens to be the reason I went there last weekend. It was awful.
Now, we all know that whiny blogs are a major drag. I’ll spare you an emo diatribe, but I do want to mention the so-called Great Passion Play. If you’re not familiar, the Great Passion Play is a marquee attraction in Eureka Springs, and highlights the week leading up to and including Jesus’s crucifixion, a.k.a. Passion Week. I like Jesus, but I hated the play. But hey, you might like it. In fact, you would definitely like it if you enjoy:
- Feeling like a sucker
- Pre-recorded and poorly-delivered voice “performances” loosely adhered to by faraway “actors”
- Jesus sounding like Hank Hill
- Bible stories written by someone who may or may not have ever seen a bible
- A huge waste of 25 dollars
The best part of the vacation is that I came home early, with three days of leisure remaining before I have to go back to work. I’m currently on Leisure Day 2, and enjoying life again. The second-best part is that I took lots of pictures and videos, which I stitched together into a mildly entertaining video in iMovie. That was fun. The third-best part is that it gave me something to blog about. So here are some pictures, since this is a cheap and boring blog post.
Oh! And Perma-Goggles refers to the awesome tan I got from wearing sunglasses the whole time.
My parents
The "Great" Passion Play
A huge and creepy Jesus hovers above the treeline
The showers featured soap dispensers and very low ceilings
An awesome artsy photo I took(?)
My dad kept doing this without knowing what it means
We found a trail that led to this old quarry
OMG i can’t believe you got a picture of Dad doing the shocker! hahahaha
I agree that huge jesus is mega creepy and weird.
