And then we stopped for lunch at a seafood restaurant. Dad said the fish wasn’t as nice as that at the Fishing Hall of Fame. After lunch, Dad drove to a place called Ruby Falls. I took lots of pictures there and started to have fun.

We stopped at the World’s Largest Catsup (番茄酱) Bottle the next day. I did find it very interesting. It was a water tower, but it could hold over 600,000 bottles of catsup.
