    Tulsa - Cain's Ballroom

    December 8, 2023 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 64 °F

    Arrived in Tulsa and picked up our ROAT (Ridiculously Oversized American Truck) which felt right for a trip to Oklahoma.
    Our only agenda item that night was Cain's Ballroom - one of those classic, old school dancehalls. We saw American Aquarium, who were actually quite fun.Read more
