2 Castles




Last weekend I saw 2 castles (Neuschwanstein, and Hohesschwangau). We had to ride a  carridge to get up to the castles. I saw a gold room with crystal bowls and gold holders. On the way down we had to switch horses because both of the horses got tired so they put the horses into the back of the moving van. The new horse had brown fur and a darker tail.  When the ride was finished tons, and tons, and tons of people were in line for the carriage.
    The day before that we went to a mountain. We were on a cable car it wiggled from side to side. When we were at the top of the mountain I yelled " SNOW". Devon slipped on  a hill and she slid down. I couldn't get up. When she was done she said "that was awsoeme.  you have to try that". Then I slid down. "That was sweet" I yelled.

Olympia Tower



Yesterday I saw the Olympia Tower - it was huge.  I also ran all the way up a big hill that was made out of junk from World War 2 but now it is all covered with dirt and grass and then I dashed down. My Dad said "You were going about 35 miles per hour"! While I was running, in my head I was saying "My feet can't run this fast." Then I started to tumble and tumble. Then I got up and said I was okay but after my throat started to hurt - it felt sore - I think I swallowed some dirt. Then it started to feel better. My mom said "there's a trampoline over there - do you want to go on"? Then Gillian, Devon and I said Yeah let's go and we went. The trampoline was so bouncy I could do a million butt bounces without stopping. Then the person that ran the trampoline said it was time to get off so we did. Then we started to walk home.

Salzburg


Yesterday we went to Salzburg in Austria. It is an hour and half away. On the train, we saw some snow covered mountains called the Alps. The seats on the train were like the seats in Harry Potter. We climbed up large steps to get to the highest tower of a castle but to get up to that height we had to take something called a funicular which is like a little roller coaster that goes up and down a steep slope. It's also like a train. Also in Salzburg we went on a tour in a carriage pulled by two horses named Mona and Lisa. Together they make "Mona Lisa." In school, we are learning about Mozart and we got to see where he was born.We also got some Mozart candy. It was delicious.

TierPark (the Zoo)


We walked through the wet and damp rocks to look at some animals. We saw some monkeys screeching their heads of. We saw some lions in a tropical atrium (a boy and a girl).  The girl was roaring because a lady was taking a photo of the lions. An then a Puma roared a little quieter..or maybe she just gagged a little.  We also saw some jumping seals. They got us wet! Then we went to the playground in the Zoo. There was a spinning rock and a spinning sideways wheel. After that, Mom said "It' time to go!" Okay I said. So I got off the spinning wheel and we walked home.  I love the Zoo.

Food

Hi Everyone!


Yesterday I had a chocolate bagel. Imagine that! It was sort of a brown color. There was chocolate chips in there, Of course! And guess what I got some real crystals over here. For my sisters birthday (Feb.) we are going to Paris (the city of lights). In Mom school I am playing a game called Math Blaster (on the computer). In Math Blaster you are supposed to beat each level and get every answer correct. We are also learning a lot about Mozart and his requiem. Was he killed? Hmmmm..We'll never know.
