One Sad Arts District

The world's largest chest of drawers is in North Carolina.

Today we are heading to North Carolina. The day promised to have big things in store for us, starting with the world's largest chest of drawers in High Point.  Then it was off to Charlotte, where we saw the Panthers' Stadium. Not much else to do here. We went to dinner at an award-winning wood-fired pizza place. We ate outside on the patio, where we discovered that the building was interactive. If you pressed on certain places on the exterior wall, sound effects and bright lights went off. Like we said...there's not much going on in Charlotte. From there, we went looking for fun in the arts district –- which turned out to be one intersection with one open bar. We both drank one beer, staying there one hour, and drove back to our hotel. Maybe tomorrow will be more... just more.
