Last days in Baltimore

Friday morning, we went swimming in our hotel pool. I has lots of fun, and Emily was proud that she was able to touch the bottom of the deep end. After swimming, we went to visit my baby cousin, Alexia. We just relaxed over there. Afterwards, we went to see the nearby baseball game. It was Baltimore vs. Toronto. Baltimore won 6-4, and one of there players scored 3 home runs in a row. It was a great experience, there were also neat fireworks at the end.The following day, we went to visit them again just before we left. Me and Lily invented animal songs. On the ride back, we went to subway, dunkin' donuts, McDonalds and we looked at gamestop. In the car, I listened to music, played my Ds, read quidditch through the ages, rested and some other things. What an amazing time I had at Baltimore! P.S. This is my last entry this summer. I hope you all enjoyed!

Third day at Baltimore

During my third day at Baltimore, we went to Costco where I got a bit of school supplies. Emily also wanted to go to PetSmart, where she got her hamster cotton some corn which can be popped into popcorn. For lunch, we went to friendly's. It's a restaurant where they make really delicious ice cream. They also serve meals, but they make really good ice cream. After eating there, we went to my Uncle Derek and aunt Yulia's to visit again. We went for a walk while we were over there, and they were filming a show called House of Cards. We also had a magic draft while we were there, and I got some pretty cool cards.

Second day at Baltimore

During my second day at Baltimore, we went to the national zoo. We saw lions, tigers, flamingos, gorilla's, and a whole ton of other things. It was very fascinating. We also had lunch over there. There was an aquatic area, an insect area, a bird area and a whole lot more. We went to Olive garden to have supper afterwards. I had chicken strips. It was quite delicious. We went back to our hotel to swim in the pool. It was very fun, the water was very nice. Then, I relaxed until I went to sleep.

First day in Baltimore

On Tuesday, we woke up early for our trip to Baltimore. The car ride was about 9-10 hours. I played my ds, read some books, listened to music, rested and played with stuffed animals. We stopped by burger king to have lunch. There was something called the family food, which asks family feud questions on it, and we won 3 chicken wraps since we got all three of ours right. When we arrived at the hotel, we just looked around, and all. We also went to my uncle Derek's and aunt Yulia's to see my new baby cousin, Alexia. She was very cute. I had a very fun time over there. Very fun in baltimore so far!

The meteor shower

Yesterday we had my cousins Shane, Bradley, Jonathan, Ben, Cameron and my friend Miguel for the meteor shower. We played the wii, the computer, played a lot of soccer, I played some badminton, and we all talked outside.We also played with my nerf guns, we played basketball in my room, and played magic. Me, Bradley, Shane and Miguel were taking pictures of ourselves, we were doing a relativity test, and we merged photos together. We didn't have a campfire, or look at the shooting stars this year, since it was raining and very wet. Instead of camping outside, we camped in our garage. Me, Brad, Shane and Miguel slept in our own tent, and the rest of the boys slept in their own tent. During the night, we had pokemon battles, recorded our voices, made movies on the ds and just talked. The following day, we had chocolate chip pancakes, played nerf, played soccer, and the wii. When Miguel left, we started playing on the computer. We also had a fun soccer match, it was a really close game. I also played some more magic with Cameron. And then, everyone left. I had an amazingly fun time, it was the best meteor shower yet!! After they left, we went to the Navan fair. There were some cool looking rides, but we only got to go on a few of them. I went on the ferris wheel with my sister, a guitar kind of ride where it rotates very high, then rotates back down. I also went on the bumper cars with my sister. I went on a ride with my dad where it starts spinning you, then it starts going higher, and after you start tilting backwards. It pretty much tilts you backwards, going really high spinning really fast. We also played some games, we played a water gun game where you try and hit a target with a water gun, and the first one to have their monkey reach the top wins. If you hit the target, your monkey goes up. We also played a similar game, except instead of a monkey it's water. Emily also played a balloon popping game.We also looked at the navan fair contest results, we looked at some animals, and we saw the comedy group the cowguys. It was really funny.

Movie on the beach

For this year's movie on the beach, I invited my friends Isaak, Felix-Antoine and Nicolas. We started by swimming in the lake. We found seaweed and threw it at each other, played jackpot with a volley-ball and raced in the water. It was a lot of fun. After, we had a snack and started to pretend to be playing Minecraft until the movie started. The movie ended at about 10:30. When we got home, we played our video games in the tent. I was getting tired so I went to sleep a little earlier than everyone else. The day after, me and Isaak were the only ones awake so we went inside to play. When it was breakfast, Nicolas woke up. After we ate, we played a game on the wii called super smash bros. It's pretty much a normal fighting game. After Nicolas and Felix-Antoine left, me and Isaak went to bike to my friend Brad's house. Isaak was too tired to continue so he got picked up and went home. Me and my dad went to my friend Brad's for a bit. After, me, my dad and Brad all biked back to my house. Me and Brad played Roblox, Minecraft and watched youtube videos. I had a fun, busy 2 days.

Swimming at splash

Two days ago, I had a soccer game. It was a pretty close game, I think we lost 3-2. I had a lot of fun. On Wednesday, me, my sister and dad all went swimming at a public pool called Splash. There is a big slide, a pool, a wave pool and a hot tub. We did a bit of each. My dad ripped his swim suit, so me and my sister swam alone for the rest of the time. It was a great way to spend our afternoon. Today I went to my cousin Alexandra's house to swim, and watch a bit of the olympics. I had fun, the girls also taught me what they do as warm up's for their gymnastics.
