After that we drove to Downtown Omaha and did some sightseeing. Again, I'm in love with Omaha. It's a very nice place.

After a few hours of walking around Downtown we drove back to our room to change.
But first we just happened to drive past the most amazing and beautiful huge brick mansions and massive houses (Dundee Historic District) close to a large park and a memorial - Memorial Park. I don't want to leave Omaha at this point, there is still so much to see and do. I need more time here......We decided to go to Scary Acres in the evening to see what the haunted houses in Omaha were about.
Halloween is my FAVORITE holiday and I LOVE going to haunted houses. It is SO MUCH FUN to be scared!



Oh yeah.....in no time we screamed on top of our lungs and got chased by dudes with chainsaws and other bloody freaks. Mandy was convinced we were the two loudest people they had come through there that night, maybe even all week. There was a crazy thing in one of the places......a soft but firm at the same time wall of some sort that you had to squeeze through, while a freaky looking dude with an axe was breathing down you neck. Not for claustrophobic people. I loved it - soooooo much fun!
After all of that excitement we were hungry and went and had late night dinner and dessert of course.

When that was done we went gambling at Harrah's in Iowa. Iowa is basically right next to Omaha.....weird. Mandy wanted to gamble cause she was feeling lucky and indeed she was. After investing a few dollars she walked out richer. She cashed in another voucher for $12 after I took this pic. Me? Not as lucky, I lost $5. I am not a big gambler, I am super conservative when it comes to gambling and I will cash in even a few dollars in winnings, as you can see. My vouchers added up to a whopping $3.55! I'd much rather spend my money on a Prada purse than waste it on gambling.

Then we somehow ended up at some bar where we watched a bunch of very drunk people sing karaoke, that was rather entertaining. Mandy tried forcing me to sing karaoke, Abba she insisted on. But I refused. Sometimes I am really shy, singing karaoke is one of those times.
I think I would be so petrified if I had to do that, I would probably faint. No karaoke for me! After the bar we had some Kodak moments down by some large statues that tells you the history about the settlers in Nebraska. We were part of that settlement last night.
Somehow we managed to avoid getting arrested, I was a bit worried for a moment......

And what Ingrediences were on the pizzas?

Ingredients on the pizza.....mine was a Margherita with mozzarella and basil. And Mandy felt daring and got a pizza with sauerkraut on it and some sort of meat, I think corned beef or something like that. She loved it.
