Vinyl Records

On the way back home last night, Aimi put on The Beatles' songs in the car and my parents started singing along. Then, we ended up talking about them.. the legendary Beatles... and other musicians back in their days. Aimi full of her wikipedia knowledge about them (loser! haha) and my parents talking about their experience. When we reached home, we browsed through my dad's old records. That was awesome. My mom and dad got excited about each record, started singing random lines one record after the other. We're still waiting for the new stylus for the record player. I ordered it about probably kan a month ago, and it still hasn't arrived!! Anyhoo... we probably spent about a good hour talking about my dad's records and the musicians. And the fact that my dad had a story for each record he bought was awesome.

What was amazing was this... something little which kind of overwhelmed me a bit...
