My Dad and I visited New York City
and we got to go to the Museum of Natural History. I saw a lot of
exhibits about the Earth, the planets, and space. I watched a
movie about black holes and learned about the Big Bang. One bone
in the neck of an Allosaurus dinosaur can weigh as much as 200
pounds.
Hi, I'm back from the other side of the world. Mommy and I went to
Thailand, where we visited last year. We had a really good time. We
went to the beaches, went to the snowy mountains, and lots of cities
in India. I saw millions of monkeys, some elephants, and lots of
flies. We went to the zoo and saw tigers, lions, bears (oh my!),
flamingos, pelicans, and hyenas (haha). We saw lots of temples and
hiked in the Himilayas. The best apple juice I ever had was in Kalpa.
In Thailand we stayed in the Lahu village near Changmai, in the
northern part of the country. In a town called Pai we had the best
banana fritters. I want to go back again sometime.
I'm 10 years old. My birthday is on November 30th. I like
playing games like Star Wars Monopoly, Chess, and Uno. Battleship and
Parcheesi are lots of fun too. In the summertime I swim in our pond. I
like the wintertime a lot because then we can have snowball fights.
I used to go on field trips with my class. Not long ago we got to go
to the science museum in Roanoke. There we saw a planetarium show and
a lot of different kinds of snakes.
I went to Puerto Rico to visit my cousins. They live in Rincon, on
the west coast. My favorite thing was getting ice cream at the beach
from the ice cream truck. I also got to fly my kite at the beach. My
least favorite thing was taking a hike through the rainforest because
it was so muddy.
