So much fun in Splasher's Of The South Seas, Grand Forks, ND.

Kailey's journal.

I just ate breakfast this morning and I remember me and Mom are going to a waterpark.
It's called, Splasher's Of The South Seas.

I put my bathing suit on and my clothes on top of it, and fixed my hair (I put it as a pony tail), then brought my goggles. Of course my Mom had to take me because my Dad was at work. My Dad took the car and the place was too far so we had to take the bus.
Me and my Mom walked to the place where we got on the bus quickly, so the other cars behind the bus don't have to wait.  Later we figured it we were on the wrong bus. The driver called another bus and dropped us off at a corner and wait for the other bus to pick us up. The right bus came to our corner and we got on the bus. The bus was small on the outside but big on the inside. The driver knew where to go so we just waited.

We finaly arrived to Splasher's Of The South Seas. When we got in we checked in, while Mom was checking in I needed to go to the bathroom.  After I went to the bathroom I went to back to the check in counter and we got our wrist band (it was orange color).  I got so so so excited!
I got ready, got my googles on, and ready to have some fun. 

The first one I did was kind of mini slides.  I went on and slide couple of times. 
After a while I went on to the big slide. You have to have a floatie with you though. So I grab a floatie and went up the stairs. There was a lot of stairs.  Then I was sliding down the slide. 



With Mom and me during my second visit.

It was like I was in a big, colorful toilet!  When I went down the steep hole, I dropped down quickly and landed in the pool below.  I was shaking a little bit but after my first try I went on, again, and again, and again so many times more.

Me and Mom got so hungry afterward we went to get some nachos and the chips were a little spicy. When we were done eating I rode the big, colorful and fun slide again.  After 5 hours later It was time to go home.  I did not want to go that instant but I did have to go because the place was closing.  So I put on my clothes and we went to Wendy's for dinner.  We drove home afterward and went to bed.

The End.

Normal day in Grand Forks, ND. (Day 20)

Kailey's journal.

I was just watching tv as usual. I was about to change my clothes but the maid came in, so I had to wait for the maid to finish cleaning our hotel room.

The maid left so I had to take a shower. After my shower (a nice refreshing shower), I changed in my cloths and combed my hair, like million times. After that I watched tv again.

Part 2: Trip to Winnipeg, Canada

We went to The Forks Market to eat our dinner. It was pretty big for a market so, me, Mom, and Dad looked around the market place to find food to eat because we have to have our dinner. Dad ate some hamburger with onion rings, I had a hot dog with fries and Mom ate some Sri Larkan food. We all ate different foods.


The Forks Market.

When me and Mom was eating my Dad was finished, so Daddy went to buy chocolate fudge at another store. When Daddy came back with the chocolate fudge, it was not good, but it was good for me. It was not fantastic but it was good.

Fruits and veg area.

After eating our dinner we went back to the hotel and went to sleep.

Day 11: Grand Forks, North Dakota. Friday, June 26, 2009.

Day 11: Grand Forks, North Dakota. Friday, June 26, 2009.

 Early this afternoon city of Grand Forks issued a tornado warning. Around 6:00pm we heard the city's emergency loud siren sound thro out the city, a warning signed of tornado heading our way.
6:30pm- Clouds started to formed above us.
7:00pm-  Rain, heavy dark cloud is approaching, and warm air started to swirl around the area.  Minutes later, rain started to get stronger and cool air increasingly swirling above us.
By this time I decided to take my video camera out and video taped the storm.

I overheard someone in the hotel lobby said, tornado did in fact landed several blocks from our hotel. Scary!

No worries we are doing okay.

Here's the beginning of the tornado ...

Day 8: Grand Forks, North Dakota

Walking

Me and my Mom had breakfast and it was good. Then me, and Mom went back in to our room. I sat on my chair, and watched tv. Then I asked my Mom if we can walk to Michaels Arts and Craft store. So me and Mom got dressed to go to the store. So then I was doing my hair, I went in the bathroom to brush my teeth. Then my nickles got caught on the bathroom handle and broke to pieces. But Mom said, we can get another one.

(I took this picture myself)
So we went off and walked to Micheals Art and Craft store. First, we ate at Jimmy John Deli, then went to Game Stop. I bought a game for my DS called: Ballet Magic. I put my game in my bag.

Then we walked around and went to Old Navy, but we were just looking around. Then I saw a pretty dress, and a nice shirt for 4th of July, but Mom said that I can only have one. I decided I wanted the dress.

We went to another store, (I forgot the name of the store)and it was a little bit boring. So then we walked over to Micheals Arts and Craft store and bought some stuff.

We went to Target and had a drink, and rest from walking. I was playing my new DS game, but it was hard so we returned it and got a new one. After that we went grocery shopping. After that we walked back home.
While in the room I learned my States and then my Dad came in. We needed to eat, but first we went to Office Max. After OfficeMax we went to McDonald's. Walked home after we ate and I went to sleep.

I took these pictures by using my own camera.
















The End!!!
