mexico

while i was in Mexico i had lots of fun with my cousins and there friend Olivia. i didn't actually go shopping or into town except once for dinner. i find that town reminds me of the fact that I'm not home or at least more than the Girasol does which is the hotel that we stay at every year. we were bored a lot but at times it was really fun. like me and Chardae attempted to go skim boarding by the end we were actually quite good at it and after we went swimming in the pool and it felt really warm after being in the freezing ocean. also one time me and Priya did what are parents did which was to take these like pink floaty bed things and paddle between the two beaches which isn't that far but it was still fun. except that Priya got stung by a jelly fish. we also used walkie talkies to communicate around the hotel it was fun. we met this guy named bob and he had emo hair and priya and olivia were stalking him.
any way it was lots of fun but right now i'm back in toronto and i'm definatly happier but it was still fun.

managua

managua was very different than mexico. it was a lot bigger. there were more people which also led to the fact that there was a lot more polution. especialy in the areas that didn't have a lot of people or in the places were there were lots of people but they weren't that rich. also in the areas were there's lots of buildings affected by the earthquake. like by the water. managua to me definatly wasn't that pretty but me, being the lazy person i am, liked it because we had to take a taxi everywhere. that's not the only reason i liked but its one of the big reasons. actually now that i think a bout i didn't really like anything about it. i liked some bits and pieces that i can't think of right now but it definatly wasn't my favorite place in the world. the only museum type thing that we went to ,strangly enough knowing my mom, was a place that had some hardened lava mud stuff with peoples footprints from 6000 years ago. we also went wondering around the city which you, if you know me, i didn't like. and thats about it talk to you soon about san juan del sur which is where i have been staying the last 6 weeks. bye.

spain

in spain we rented a car and drove all around the area of spain were barcelona is. we flew into a small place called girona. we stayed there for txo nights and one full day. we spent that day exploring the old part of the town. we saw this cool little courtyard with old castle like buildings and we walked on the old wall that surronds one side of the city (used surrond the whole city). after that we drove to barcelona and saw the antoni gaudi building which are so cool who evers reading this has to see them atleast once in there lives. then we drove to whole bunch of other places that i can't remember the names of and got lost most of the time. and we saw a cool palace. and we went to the beach. then mymom wanted to spend one more day in barcelona so we went to barcelona and went shopping then we went back to girona and dropped off the car and flew back to gotenberg again. and that's were i am now. oh and i allmost forgot in my last blog entry i said i got a new book and i finshed it and am now half way through the golden compass the first and i'm hoping to finish before i see the movie. and i'm hopefully going to see hairspray finally tonight.

gotenberg

after egypt we flew back to stolkholm because it was a one week deal from stolcholm then we basically spent the night at the airport and took a train back to gotenberg. and that's where i am now when we got back we didn't really do anything except homework and yesterday i got a new book, that reminds for who evers reading this, that cares, i never used to really like reading but now i'm actually reading kind of fast or at least faster, and in 4 months i've read 8 or 9 books all of which really enjoyed. before i would read about one book a year so 8 or 9 books in 4 months is alot for me.

egypt

when we arrived in egypt it wasn't the best way we could start our tropical vacation that's for sure we ended up waiting over two hours for are room to be ready. so we went to the beach for dinner and there was this adorable little beach puppy i named him tommy. after that we went back to the hotel and luckily the room was done so we went up it was a terrible romm things were falling apart and there was a broken fridge sitting in the middle of the room so any way it was not the best hotel. the next day we had a much better time, i figured out that the tv in our room had a channel that ran movies all day long and we had a nice brunch. all in all after that first day we had a great time in egypt we went snorcleing which was so cool i saw rainbow fish and this huge green fish and many more. we also saw the pyramids and we went on a tour and got to climb deep down a tunnel into the queens tomb. we also bought perfume for people and us i got a kind of perfume that's called lovely and it took fifteen minutes to sniff it out. so we had a great time in egypt.

stockholm

in stolckholm we stayed in a small apartment right next door to the son of the people we stayed with in oslo and his family which was a son about my age and a daughter around nine neither one knew how to speak english very well. we went on a hike on an island and had a buffet for lunch. then we took the ferry back and played a three language scrabble game. we also saw ratatouille and shrek three and played twister and cards and watched movies on the tv.

after bergen

after bergen we went back to oslo for a few days doing hardly nothing but we did go for a long drive up in the country area where are ancestors were from and went to a museum and a couple old churches it was kind of fun. after that we went to sweden. in sweden we did alot of homework and stuff but we did go to a really cool science museum were they had an indoor rain forest. where there were monkeys and snakes and fish and these huge electric eels. right next to the science museum is an amusment park which we also went to. we went on few rides but not all of them and had lots of fun. there were these wheel of fortune games were you could win giant sized chocolate bars me and my mom tried them but we didn't win. that's mainly all we did in gotenberg (which was where we were, sorry forgot to mention that). then we went to stolckholm.
