Washington DC U.S.A July 26 part 1

Today we went to Vienna Metro Station. And we bought a one day pass. When we got out side we saw the monument. We took pictures. And we pretended to push down the monument. The monument looked like it was 20 million meters tall! Maybe not 20 million meters tall but it was tall enough to be called tall.



Then, we went to the other side of the road. And when we were crossing the road I looked at the buildings. They were so tall that they looked like they were about to fall over. Okay okay it wasn’t that tall. And we went inside the Museum. Oh I forgot to tell you the name of the museum. So the museum was called Museum of Natural History. When we got inside there was a model of a big elephant and it looked like a real one. There was some human history and lots of models of animals. And most of them were about 15 meters tall and 15 meters wide. Then, we went to see a 3-D movie about dinosaurs. In one of the pictures one type of animals is fully grown by 20 years old. And these types of dinosaurs have no predictors because they are too tall and strong to be beaten up. The other dinosaurs can only scratch their feet. If one smaller dinosaur sneaks up to the big dinosaurs back, the dinoursaur can use its long strong tail to nock the other dinosaurs away. Their tail is very long and very strong. These types of dinosaurs travel slowly in big groups. And the groups of nests are too wide to be stepen over by the dinosaur’s mothers. After the 3-D movie, we ate lunch and I accidentally spilled my ice tea. Next, we went to the National Air And Space Museum. We saw real spacecrafts and the first probe we saw was Apollo 11. It was very famous probe. The first people to walk on the moon.








The other probes we saw were called Hope and Opportunity. They landed on mars. Another was called Vikings. It was a rover that explored mars. When we left the museum we went to the White House. (And we had an appointment with president Obama. We asked him these questions. 1. How long have you been president? 2. How is your work? 3. How did you get awarded? And we took pictures of him and the white house. ) (just joking)! Later, we had dinner at a Chinese restaurant. The food was not that good. Finally, we went back to the hotel.

Altoona U.S.A July 25 Part 2

Today, we planned to go to the amusement park to play mini golf. When we arrived, it wasn’t open yet. We didn’t want to waste our time. So, we went shopping at Big K Mart to buy my swimming suits. I went straight into the Big K mart to see 4 sport whistles and disguise. Dad went to see his men wear. Mom went to see her woman wear. Later, Dad and mom tried to find me but they couldn’t find me. They were frightened. So, Mom asked the staff to call me in the P.A. system. When I heard it, I rushed to the entrance to meet my mom. Dad and mom were happy to find me. After we bought my swimming suits, we went to the amusement park again. This time we still couldn’t play it because it was raining. I was disappointed. It was about lunchtime and we went to a restaurant called Eat’n Park to have our lunch. It was a family restaurant. After we ordered our food, we heard thunder. The thunder was so loud it made the restaurant shake a bit. Oh and the lightning too. After we were done our lunch, we went to Holiday Bowl to play bowling. At first, I got 2 fouls because my feet were beyond the line. After that I learned not to go over the line because the score didn’t count. So, I tried to catch up and I did. Finally, dad won the game.



After we were done the game, we played race cars witch you had to race with your partner, DX hockey witch you have to try to score in your partner’s net and finally, Pinball witch you had to get the highest score as possible. I beat dad in the car race and won him. And he won the hockey game. He beat me by 7-4. Then, I played Pinball I had a high score.

It was still raining so we couldn’t go to the amusement park to play mini golf. Eventually, we went straight to Washington DC. After driving for 5 hours, we finally arrived at Four Point by Sheraton Hotel. Next, we went swimming. We had fun. Then, we went to Bob Evans restaurant. I ordered spaghetti with meat sauce, French fries, garlic bread and ice tea. The food was so yummy that I wanted to come again.

Altoona, U.S.A July 24 Part 1

Today, we drove to Buffalo and then we had to stop in the immigration because they had to check our passports and asked us to pay money for going into the U.S.A. We waited for almost 2 hours. Then, they called our name. They checked our passports and they told us to pay at the cashier. So we did. After, we continued the drive to our hotel. The hotel was called Super 8. When we arrived, it was about 10:00 p.m. Restaurants were already closed, so we ate instant cup noodles for dinner. It was yummy. All of us were very tired, especially dad. He had driven all day long.

Manchester United v Celtic United

Today we went to Downtown Rogers Center to watch Manchester United v Celtic United at the Blue Jay’s soccer field. Mom told us she would wait at Harvy's. When we got there we bought a bottle of water and a packet of Skittles. We ate the packet of skittles while we watched the game. Finally, both teams came out with their uniform. At first Manchester United had more possession. Then at about the 34 minute Manchester United scored. Someone passed the ball to Berbatov and then he dribbled past a person the ball into the net. And I was so happy. I shouted to cheer for Manchester United. The score was Manchester United 1-0 Celtic United.
After, they did a few more shots. Then, it was halftime. At the second half Chris Smalling pulled down someone. There was a penalty. It went in. 1-1.
After Berbatov passed the ball to Wellback. And he shot and scored. Now it was 2-1.
Next, Manchester United’s Tom Cleverly shot and it was deflected into the net. It was 3-1The goalie couldn’t save it because the goalie had dived the wrong way. And at each goal I cheered very loudly and hoped that the players would hear my cheer.


When the game was over we cheered and shouted. We took pictures and videos after the game. Then, the man in the yellow shirt asked my dad what team I was cheering for and dad told him that I was cheering for Manchester United. And he told me that my team had done it again. After we went back to the Sky walk that would lead us to the subway. On our way there was Manchester United’s fans and Celtic’s fans. They were shouting against each other. But Celtic had already lost. No use. When we met mom I was hungry. I told dad that I was hungry and I wanted to get the food at McDonalds. But dad didn't want to. So, my mom gave me some french fries she had bought at McDonalds. After, when we got ouside I was hungry again. So, my parents bought a hot dog. I gave some pieces of my hot dog to my dad.

Kitchener

Today we drove to St. Jacob at Farmer’s Market. We ordered chips and fish and a hamburger. We also brought some drinks. I drank 1 can of Nestea and 1 can of Five Alive. My dad drank 2 cans of Nestea. It was yummy. When we finished we went to look around. While we were eating the people were giving money to the charity near the eating area. The team was called Purple team. Each time the people gives money to the charity they ride their bikes. And the people’s cheers were so loud we could hear it from the eating area. There was a pony ride. I saw 4 ponies and the small children rode on it. Just after a few minutes that they had got on their ponies a pony pooed on the ground. The staff joked “Did you squeeze your Pony too hard?” I laughed. Suddenly, I saw a soccer stand. It was full of soccer stuff. I wanted to buy a Manchester United shirt but dad siad he could buy it at Hong Kong.
Next, we drove to Outlet Mall.
I went to Lego Land and played with Mega blocks. (small Lego) I built a radio dish truck. It made it so it would go very slow. It was hard to make but not too complicated. In the afternoon we drove to Kitchener to Tim Horton’s for lunch.
Then, we wanted to play at a golf course. So dad found a golf course. He also booked a buggy to ride on since we had to walk a long long way. We played the first nine holes. They were hard. So it took about 2 hours. But it was fun. After, we had finished we called mom and drove to All you can eat. On the way I finished the fish and chips we ordered at the Farmer’s Market. We ate and ate and ate until we were full. Then we drove back home. We had a wonderful time at St. Jacob and Kitchener.

London

Today we drove to London for 3 hours. During the long car ride I put on Mozart’s music. When we reached there we went to a Family restaurant called West Side. I drank chocolate milk, and water. I ate French fries and chicken fingers. After we finished eating we went to East Park. It had lots of things you could do. You could play on the water slide, go carts, mini golf, and real golf. First we played mini golf. It was fun. Harry’s goofy golf was easier than Golf zone. But at the last hole of Golf zone I got a birdie. When we finished playing mini golf we played real golf. The lady at the counter said we have to start at hole number 10. The holes were hard. One was over 4 hundred yards. But I finished the hole in 7 strokes. When we finished playing we went to Tim Hortans for dinner. I ate 1 bowl of chicken soup with noodles, a bun with butter, and half a crusaun. After, we drove back home because it was getting late. We had a wonderful time.

I shot the ball in the right hand corner from the six yard box and it went in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a second goal! My teammates hugged me again!!!!!!! We were wining 3-1. I was overjoyed. Then, the other team’s same teammate who had scored a goal ran past all of us except me and the goalie. I didn’t want him to shoot so I tackled him. What a great tackle. In the final few minutes, I got the ball again and the other team got it and I fell down. But my teammate John got the ball and kicked it low. It hit my face.
