In PLP you go on one big trip a year and this year the grade nines went to Orlando Florida this was an amazing jam packed trip. This was from the 3 to the 12 and we went everywhere from Disney world to NASA we even surfed! So the first after after arriving we went to Disney World to the magic kingdom. I loved it there because it truly is the happiest place on earth. Also at magic kingdom is where my video on what draws us to imaginary worlds and my attraction was Cinderellas castle. Other then magic kingdom we also went to the two other parks Epcot and animal kingdom, I loved all of them but magic kingdom was my favorite just since it is a classic.

The following day we went to universal studios and had so much fun there since the rides are huge. I even faced my fear and went on rip ride roller coaster a huge roller coaster that does a loop! I loved this so much I went twice.

Then we went to Merritt island and saw some alligators and beautiful birds. We even got to go on an airboat ride to see lots of gators. Then after seeing the alligators the next day we went surfing. I had surfed previously and had amazing times and this wasn’t any difference. I got up on the board and they were great beginner waves so fairly small. That afternoon we got to go to a space training class type thing that taught us how the flights work and the training needed. When we were there we got to do a simulator of a flight and we all had specific jobs so I was a scientist on the shuttle and got to do real experiments!

After astronaut training we then went to the NASA visitor center where the real Atlantis was and we got to see. As well at the Kennedy space center was a behind the scene type tour that we could decide to go on. I signed up for that because its a once in a lifetime opportunity and I’m glad I did. On the tour we got to see the assembly building (fun fact it’s the 5th largest building in the world) as well as a real issuing control flight room.

After NASA the following days until we left we’re at Disney Epcot and animal kingdom. At Epcot is the world showcase this was really fun and interesting to see since lots of the places they show I would love to travel sometime. After that we were then at animal kingdom where there are real animals such as giraffes, monkeys and lions. I liked it there but I just don’t agree with the animals being in captivity even though they do have lots of space.

Overall this was a great experience and I loved everything about the trip! So until the bye for now!

Last Saturday I came back from a nearly 1 month trip to Mexico. The flight wasn’t to bad but I am missing the sun and warm water because it’s raining in Vancouver at the moment. But it is good to get back into routine. Lots of things to catch up on school though, but it does help because I was able to do a little bit of work down there through the iPad. 

It was so beautiful down there and I was in a little town called Puerto Escondido and that’s way down south, so there was surfing and sun. I can’t wait for the next time I get to experience that but until then

Bye For Now!

At this exact moment in time I am in sunny Mexico. Not where the resorts are but in a small surf town where I have been swimming everyday and will soon be starting to surf. The town is called Puerto Escondido and it isn’t huge or to touristy it is actually mostly locals. So far it has been absolutely amazing, in the place I am staying we are 5 minutes from the ocean and have a pool directly in front of our house. Where I am staying it is very simple, all concrete and just plain but we have friends staying right next to us, literally next door. They were actually the people who recommended Mexico and are living here for a year. There son stayed with us in Vancouver for a month. Anyway these last days it has been just reading a book by the pool or beach with a pina colada in hand or going to the market for fresh fish and all the rest of it. Then in between all of this, eating a taco with beans and fresh salsa or hot sauce. I will be here for a couple more weeks and will keep you updated.

Here’s a video of where I was staying for a night:

So that’s all for now thanks for reading this post and adiós!
