This summer I went on two amazing trips. One to New Brunswick by myself, and the other with my family – starting in Toronto, and ending in Quebec City.

For this post I’m only going to write about my first trip. My summer started with an exciting and interesting adventure. The Camp was called Camp Magauadavic and I was going to be there for a month, on the east coast of Canada.

We got to Fredericton at midnight and were waiting in the airport for our homestay family to pick us up. We were with the homestay family for two days then we went to the Camp. I was so excited to meet all the new people and see the Camp!

The night we got there we went to the lodge and met everyone. There were thirteen countries all together. There were five people from each country – a leader, and the 11-year old student delegates. The kids came from eleven countries, including Canada, China, Brazil, France, India, Italy, Mexico, Norway, Philippines, Portugal, and the United States. Five JC’s, or Junior Councillors, were also there – two from Algeria and Australia, and the other three from Canada and the USA.

The JC’s were people who came and helped with organizing the Camp and activities. The activities could be games, writing or talking activities and were always based on something that we would learn about – diversity, sustainability, conflict resolution and human rights. Each day we had four activities about these themes and occasional National Nights.

National Nights were the countries chance to share their traditional dances, clothing, and languages. Also, we got to have a traditional dinner or meal. For example, on our National Night, we had pancakes with maple syrup for dinner and after dinner we did a skit about our national animals, and then had maple cookies and ketchup chips.

I can’t really say I had a favourite because they were all so interesting and cool, but some things I liked were:

• for Italy’s, we made pizza dough,
• for Brazil’s, we got to play a very cool game,
• for Mexico’s, we got to hit a piñata, and
• for Philippines, they did a dance called Tinikling.

The greatest thing about my trip was meeting all the new people from all over the world. Here is a picture of us all – these people, I will never forget.

And I hope I will get to do it again!

I woke up to the smell of chocolate pancakes and bacon. I ran downstairs to find my mom baking. I sat down and started to eat and then looked around. They wanted to tell me something, I could sense it. Mason my little brother started to say something but his mouth was to full, finally he swallowed then he said “we are going to get a puppy today!” “really!?” I said. He nodded. I finished my breakfast and ran upstairs to change out of my PJs. When I got back downstairs I grabbed my sweater and put my boots on, it was noon so we went outside to our truck and started driving to the SPCA. Finally we got there. I ran as fast as I could to get inside. I heard over ten dogs barking. I saw my mom talking to a lady who went over to a door and went in. When I got in there were dogs jumping at their cages. I saw the lady standing in front of one. I went over and there were seven puppies and another dog. One of the puppies was unique and looked nothing like the other dogs. I asked her name and it was Rain. She was so wiggly. We took her outside and played with her for a little bit. I asked my dad if we could adopt her and he said… yes! We took her home and she was very excited. She was so excited that she almost jumped out the window. She knew she had a loving family and home!

I woke up to the delicious scent of chocolate pancakes and bacon. I got up and ran downstairs to find my mom baking. I sat down and started to eat and then looked around. They wanted to tell me something, I could sense it. Mason my little brother started to say something but his mouth was to full, finally he swallowed he then said “we are going to get a puppy today!” ” Really?” Yes, he nodded. “Oh, I forgot to tell you something, I live with a super hero family and we all have super hero powers. Like my power is super speed” Now back to the story. I finished my breakfast and ran upstairs to change out of my PJ’s. It was about 12:30 by now. I grabbed my sweater and put on my boots. I ran outside and got into the truck and off we were to the SPCA. When we got there I dashed to the SPCA as quickly as my feet could carry me (to be exact I was running at 35 miles per hour). Once I got inside I heard at so many dogs barking and wagging their tails in excitement. I saw my mom talking a lady who walked over to a door and went in. We then walked in the long hallway we came upon another door, I walked inside and dogs were barking and scratching at their cages. The lady then stood next to a cage I looked inside and saw 7 adorable puppies and their mother. But there was 1 puppy who looked nothing like the rest. This puppy was unique, just like my family. Her name was Rain. Apparently she was born with special powers too. So we took her out to play in the doggy playground. I just needed to adopt her so I asked my dad and he said … yes! She was so excited when we took her home. She knew now that now she had a forever loving home! To this day my family still saves lives everyday but with 1 change, we now have an amazing canine on our side to help us!

SO TIRED …

We are driving to the airport to get on our plane to Toronto. It is four in the morning on Feb 14th and we had to get up, get our bags, and wait for our taxi outside. The taxi fiinnally came. We were now on the plane to Toronto, when we get to Toronto we will get on another plane to Cancun, Mexico and then drive to Mayan Riviera and that’s how our beautiful trip began!

At sometime we got to the resort and went inside. Me and my brother ran to the window to see if they had a pool. We stayed quiet for a moment but then ran up to our parents to ask if we could go swimming and they said not yet but after. ” YESS!!!” Mason said. When we got outside to go to the pool we jumped right inside. We went swimming for Two  hours but then we had to go and have dinner. After dinner we watched a movie and then went to bed. The next day we went to dolphin discoveries and went on a tour of Chichen Itza. It was so fun but very hot! We to the beach and you could go on a water trampoline!! I found two hermit crabs and some seaweed on it. I liked to jump off of it into the water and when I was on it I could see a reef and some fish. We went snorkeling with flippers and goggles and saw lots of colorful fish one even swam right past my face! Sometimes the people did a fun thing each day where all the kids could do a fun game. One time they put all the mats across the water and you could run across and if you made it across you got a prize and I got a prize. We were in Mayan Riviera for a few more days but then we had to leave. I said goodbye to my friends and then we left.

I hope rocket boots get made because then we wouldn’t have to walk. Yes I know we need exercise but we would have to learn how to fly them and that would probably be kind of hard. And if you are late for school you can use your rocket boots to fly to school on time. They would be so cool! I have some other inventions but I chose to write about this one. happy new year!
