Fall Break

The students in our class traveled all over this fall break!  The map above shows some of the places they went to.  Keep reading to find out about some of their travels!

 

Today I will be sharing where I went for fall break in 2018. The place I went to has lots of history. The place is in The European Union. It borders the Atlantic Ocean.  Any guesses where I went? Okay, I will tell you right now. 

I went to Portugal! The way we got there was we flew from Phoenix, Arizona to Newark, New Jersey. Then when we landed in Newark, we had a 5 hour overlay for the next flight. We got on the plane then flew to Lisbon, Portugal. When we got there we ordered an Uber to our Portuguese apartment.  It was in an old building that they turned into an apartment. 

Then, when we got to Portugal we walked a lot and looked at some cool shops. I walked inside some shops and I bought a new jersey from my favorite soccer player, Cristiano Ronaldo. 

Last we went to some other cities in Portugal but I am talking about the last day right now. For breakfast we started off the day at a café. Then for lunch we drove to the worlds nicest McDonald’s. The McDonald’s was super cool because you can order on screens that wait on the screen to get your food. Then a couple hours after that we ate at Hard Rock Lisbon it is probably the only American food in Portugal but that’s okay.  

It was a super fun trip going to Portugal. We went to very old church’s that were build in the 1500’s. Portugal is a great place for history and a good place for swimming only when its hot. Because when I went to the Atlantic ocean to swim in it, it was cold 🙁.

This fall break I went to California, it was amazing. Now, where do I start? Well let me see, I think I’ll start when we were on the road to California. It was a little boring but it went faster then I thought it would.  It went fast because I was watching movies the whole way over.  Now, the next part when I’m actually in California. 

Okay, now I know where I should start. When we got to Cali I went to our apartment, which was beautiful.  I was so happy we were in Cali. The first thing that we did was go out to eat. Then, we watched Ghost Busters and I feel asleep.  The next day I went to the beach and it was super fun except for getting sand in my swim suit. We played in the sand and my dad buried me in the sand.

Second, I went to Legoland and went on a dragon roller coaster and it went super duper fast.  After, we went on a ride that flips you up, sideways, and even upside down. Then after that was done (two hours later) we on a submarine and saw the fish and sharks.  We had to look for treasures and enter it on an iPad.  That was like a game.  

Third, we went and got ice cream and cotton candy.  It was so delicious. Then the next day I got my face painted. Then the day after that we went to an Italian restaurant and the waiter was super nice.  He made me a really good Shirley Temple.

Well, that’s the end of my trip to California.  Hopefully we do it again. I had so much fun and it was amazing.  See you next time California.
