We are off to London...

and going on a train! I am uber excited! And for the recent comment

from Coral more pictures will be put on =D I WOULD put on some on this post,

but it is still pretty early in the day so I don't have any too put on =[

But I promise London will bring more pictures than you can count to this blog!!!

Getting packed for London and...

Shopped for bathing suits (or as they say it, swimming costumes!). Oddly enough

I am starting to be able to hear my accent =O !!! Unfortunately, unless you

want pictures of luggage and bathing suits no pic available. =[ But I am going

to go back on the other post and put on some pictures! Hold on! No, this day

wasn't lazy. In fact is has been busy buzzing with this and that and there

and where! Sorry about the short post but they are short because...we'll

I don't know what to say. Because there isn't anything to say! Oh and just to

tell you - on Hannah Montana someone always runs off the little cliff thingy

by RICO'S SURF SHOP by the beach. Wierd, right? If that even makes since!




Later.

Baking, banking, la la la.

Today we had to come back from Alton Towers...sad D=

We drove back (of course, we didn't fly did we???) and talked about

out upcoming cruise. I am ALREADY excited for that! Somehow I have managed

to post everyday for the past couple days in a hotel room. With out

a computer. JUST an iPhone! Anyways, right now everyone is at the game and I will

tell the score tomorrow. It is Forest against Darby I might be able to post and tell

you anyways. We convinced Sophie's grandma to bake a chocolate cake.

Sweet talkin' ALWAYS WORKS!

like a charm.

I WENT ON A ROLLER COASTER THAT IS RANKED ONE OF THE SCARIEST ROLLER COASTERS IN THE WORLD!

WITH OUT KNOWING IT! It is at Alton Towers (obviously) in thier

amusement park and it is called .. oblivion

Look, I looked it up -------

Oblivion in Staffordshire, England



Considered the tallest vertical drop roller coaster in the world, Oblivion, located in Alton Towers in Staffordshire, England actually drops from an angle of 88.8 degrees … you know, so the wheels will stay on the track. As with many coasters, the build-up and anticipation are mounted by a series of videos showing The Lord of Darkness and perpetrating the legend that some of Oblivion’s cars have fallen into the pit-never to be found. Oblivion reaches a top speed of 68 miles and drops passengers into that dark hole in the ground from 180 feet. The entire ride lasts about 75 seconds.

I also went on Rita, Air and I wanted to go on Nemesis but me and my

shortness =] I was shaking SO HARD on Oblivion. It was the first one

I have been on in I don't know how long and I didn't even watch it before I did it.

I just hoppped on saying "I hope this is fun!" and sure enough it was. But

scary. I really didn't know what I was in for! When I thought it was going a

second time I nearly cried! Talk about scaredy cat. Mopving on --



=D Me and Sophie went to the

arcade and won some cute little key chains and what not. I was going to try to win

a remote helicopter for Unlce Jimmy (I saw three people win it! In a ROW.)

but I used it on more little cute things again. Everyone is going to another

Forest Match tomorrow but me and Soph are staying home. So here grandma is coming

over to look after us - hopefully we can do something fun! Like baking cookies

or something :) Anyhoodle. Once again we have to get up early tomorrow

for check out time but not as early as last time =D

phew.

I used to be so on time, like my body just would automatically wake up and

five o'clock in the morning, but ever since Summer started - oh.

You don't even want to know. REALLY. I mean it's crazy - Before

I got here I was waking up at 12:00...do I have to say it? Okay, okay.

In the afternoon.

But this has straightened my schedule up - and when I come back I gain six

hours! So school - here I come! Why in the world is school about to start?

WHY? =[ I love the social part, as in friends but the learning is just...

rubbish.

lol. Anyhoodle. My feet hurt as much as they did at Disney

World. Not a good thing =-D So much fun! Me and Sophie did a little kiddies

Driving Test and we got our driving licenses! HIP HIP HOORAY!

lol.

bye bye!

toodles!

asta la vista!!!!!! :]

I'm back again, and WOW IT IS

HUGE! The water park is so BIG! We got to go a big slide and I ABSOLOUTELY

loved it! Because it rains a lot here most of it was indoors...The hot tub

feels really good after being in the pool for while =D

On the REALLY BIG slide you have to lift your bum up, or you (like lil'

sammy =[ ) get it all scraped up. Poor thing. Can't say I didn't warn him.

Okay, well you can. But that isn't the point! There is a playhouse that has water

EVERYWHERE and nobody could find Sophie in it, so I was looking - looking - looking,#

and then I'm all "Hey, wait a sec? Where is everybody?" So I searched the whole

place TWO times! And then I see my mom and she is like "Oh. We were in

the hot tub."



? ? ?

Okay. Well cya later alligators! I have to refuel for even more fun!

(is there such thing as TOO MUCH fun?)

Alton Towers

And we are going to

ALTON TOWERS! Everyday I just have something new too look forward too =]

No photography allowed at the water park there =[

THAT will be a problem, eh?


I had to have to get a good night's sleep we had to get up at like 6:00 in the morning!

Because it takes about 1 hour and a half, plus we have to get good seats.

Me and Sophie are packing matching outfits. Hee hee. We have updated our blog

a bit. Sometimes this posting thing

really gets in the way but when you look back on it you are thankful you

did.

I hope?

Nottingham Castles and Losing...

My feet hurt. BAD. From walking a bunch but it was SO worth it! We walked through

town, and went to Nottingham castle on the way. I will put on some pics soon!

Have too many to name. The Forest lost to...I can't even say it...Mag Pies.

blech.


double blech.

But on the bright side I got a really cool keychain! I am starting a keychain

collection, and it is turning out AWESOME =D It is a cute bear I named

Forest from the Nottingham Castle Gift Shop.

*YAWN* night, night. Oh and one more thing, this is really random

but we ate at a Chinese buffet and it was actually good (considering I don't

really like Chinese food except for rice. I HEART RICE. seriously.)

night, night.

for good.

REALLY.

Today we...

just chilled!

Tomorrow we get to go to a Forest Football Match (Soccer)!

I am so pumped! We are being laid back and lazy today...so.

Keep reading because tomorrow will be F-U-N!

used to the time difference...?

maybe. I am not as tired as I was before, let me tell you that!

Sammy wants to show me how he sees a rainbow from the glass reflecting.

although he just thinks it's magic, eh?

We are not doing anything today (whoo, S-U-P-R-I-S-I-N-G)

But yesterday I was kind of brief becuase, of course, I was on an iPhone

and forgot to tell you that everyone except Sophie, little Sammy, Jayne

and me went to a forest match yesterday and mom felt REALLY bad for Jayne

the whole time which i bet ruined all of the fun for her =] =[

Jayne and Ian are going to a funeral today for Iris' husband John who

died just last week D=

sad, isn't it?

I miss Cheeto and Leo!

sorry.

random.

laterrrr peeppps.

Oh and by the way me and Sophie were doing "magic tricks" to entertain

Sammy becuase the day before yesterday we saw a magician and we were

going to make little sammy "dissapear". And the place he dissapeared to

was a magical world (AKA cardboard, paper and tape)

so we said he would float away (us carrying him) and we were

going to pretendto not no where he was and then see him but

WE can't see he magical world. He was supposed to go like,

"guys guys! look its right here! look!" but instead he went like

"guys guys! get me out of here!!"

pictures coming soon.

and were...

leaving the caravan! Unfortunately I JUST remembered we never took a picture of it ==[

but whateves.

we went to candy kingdom for lunch, and their play area is AWESOME!

no cameras allowed.

ugh. meanies.

But my foot hurts from a huge blister that popped when I was spinning

and dancing barefoot on a hardwood floor for two hours (I guess that's

what I get, ya know?) so I had to be careful.

hopefully it will heel up tomorrow!

I mean. It's better than yesterday???

Second day of the caravan...

And everyone is battered up! Sophie being the worst of all injuries - Burn/blister from the slide from the "Fun Farm" which is in the pub "The Plow". I am on Miss Sammy's iPhone so.. Can't type ALL of the super fun things we did... It is 11:45 so tomorrow I'll post more and put lots of pictures. PLUS, you get to see (or hear lol) what injuries we all have!!

Caravan and Pictures Later

A caravan is like a trailer and we are going to stay there for two days, we come back on Wednesday. Tomorrow or the day after I will be able to put on some pictures and video clips of Sophie and Sammy's dance recital! =] keep tuned.

Mushy peas with Mint sauce

Yesterday we went to the fair and tried mushy peas with mint sauce and it tasted really good!





Then we went on a train roller coaster. It was pretty small but there was a part where you dropped down and it looked like you were going to fall off so it was scary a bit =D But it was super fun!






And today we TRIED to go swimming in the paddling pool, but I am telling you it is below freezing in that thing!




And they call Popsicles "ice lollies" because they are frozen lollipops.
