Hanauma Bay
Protip: The park opens at 6AM. So if you get there at 6AM you don’t pay the parking fee nor the cost to enter. Nor do you have to watch the video. In addition to that the snorkeling is great. The water is calmer and the people are less! So many great things about going […]

Hawaii day 1
I was so excited to go to Hawaii. We woke up at 6:00 and the Lake Oswego Airporter was already ready to pick us up. My family rushed out side and got in the car. On the way to the airport I ran through my head all the possible things I could have forgotten. Once […]

FAMILY REUNION
From July 30th through August 2nd, 2018 my grandma and grandpa had a family reunion so all the cousins drove to the lake house! When I first went in I got lost because there were three floors and two decks. First, to get where we wanted to go we had to find the stairs but, […]

The Party
Last Saturday, we had a dinner party that crushed, wiped out, creamed, demolished, and just over all beat any other dinner party I have ever been invited to. Let me tell you about this splendiferous party. As we entered the luxurious house that is owned by the Wiltbanks, their fabulous black friendly dog ran up […]

Oak’s Park
Last Friday Anne, Maddie, our cousins, and I drove to the wonderful amusement park known as Oak’s park. This festival of colors and lights has amazing rides and some are scary like the fast spinning almost going up side down Screaming Eagle. Other rides, such as the tall white ferris wheel, are not as scary. […]

Chocolate and churros
While we were in Madrid, we tried the famous delicious chocolate and churros. The first restaurant we ate at was a place that dad’s friends took us to. The hot chocolate was very thick, rich and when you dipped your churros in the chocolate, the churros came out covered in the sweet warm dip. Next […]

Espadrilles
Today we were going to the park but, we went to the store instead. My mom really wanted to buy some espadrilles because they are commonly made in Spain. Jackie bought blue espadrilles, but I bought white espadrilles with birds. Maddie wanted to buy something but she took forever and ended up not buying anything. […]

La Sagrada Familia
The first time we went to the Sagrada Familia, we only saw the outside. We didn’t go in because they were all out of tickets, so my dad made sure to get online tickets for the next day. We woke up at seven o clock which was super early because we were all on Spain […]

Montserrat
About 50 minutes from our place in Castelldefels is a giant rock that erupts from the ground known as Montserrat. It’s quite striking and as Maddie complained today while hiking there: “the air is too fresh!” Centuries ago a black carving of Madonna and child was found here and it has become a site of […]

The Night Watch Man Tour
Before we listened to the night watchman tour, we explored Rothenburg, Germany. We looked around a huge Christmas store. The large cuckoo clocks were tempting to bring home with us, but they were all too big and really expensive. We didn’t know you couldn’t take pictures, but here are some pictures we did take. Then […]
