5 days into my epic journey

6/30/2016

So I haven’t been updating you for 4 days so today I will be writing about my adventures so far. On Friday we went in a taxi to the train station to get to Paddington station on a train then we went on another train to the airport. We waited for a long time then we got on the aeroplane.
When we got on the aeroplane, there were choices of movies, I watched kung fu panda 3. We saw some icebergs. After all of that I got to go in the cockpit and the co-pilot showed us all the controls for the plane. When we landed in Canada, Toronto where we had to find a motel. So we did and we found a motel called the Best Western hotel our bedroom was massive it had 3 bed’s!!!
The next day we went to the swimming pool and then we went to the beach where I met some Scottish kids. We then went to an inn that used to be a jail and finally after a long day we went to bed.
The day after that we went to the beach where mum got bitten by loads of moseys and I played football with a Brazilian kid then we went swimming for a bit. After that we went to find another motel, the motel was called Hilltop Motel and then had the most amazing dinner at Harveys and then we went to bed.
The day after that I played basketball in the morning then at 12:30 we went on a boat ride around 1000 islands which was called 1000 Islands… lol. On the boat there was a band playing and the piano player + singer was so funny also there was a mystery we never solved can you solve it: there was a ship that was sailing across the 1000 islands and all the money and food was in the same place it started but there were no sign of the 8 crew and ever since no one has ever found them… true story.

New words I’ve learnt and put in a sentence:

1. compress means pushing something together
2. excavate means to dig something out

Great update Fred. Did your football friend have good footie skills? What was good about the meal? Maybe it had amazing ice cream???
So, your Mum was eaten alive by a mosey attack - sounds a bit bad to me. Did she break out the field hospital first aid kit?
Where to next for you all? I look forward to reading more of your adventures.
