One day when we were staying in Philadelphia we went to the seaport museum, which was about boats and ships. While me Ezra and daddy played mummy took notes about the boats. We especially liked the old fashioned bunk beds that they put on passenger ships a long time ago; they were small but incredibly comfortable. The ladders weren't very useful because there were such big spaces in between the rungs.

On the slopes
On the first day I was very excited. I was a bit afraid at first because I was scared that I would fall over. When I was getting ready to go skiing I met a really fun lady called Stacy who helped me learn to ski in an exciting way.
At first I had to use a noodle to help me do a pizza. A noodle is a long yellow stretchy line which had pegs on each end that you put at the front of the skis. You can tell the difference between the front and the back of the skis because the front has a curved up end and the back has a flat end.
On my first day I went down a gentle slope called Mixing Bowl. The second day I went on Wolf, which was a tiny bit steeper. On the third day I was so brilliant that I moved up to a higher level, called Adventurer, and I went on Vallais, Wolf, Deer and Mixing Bowl. I was very proud and happy because it was very fun going down such steep slopes. The breeze went in my face and it felt really relaxing. It felt like I was on a fairground ride because I kept going in S shapes.
Going to school
On our first day in New York I stayed at my friend's house called
Florence. On the second day I went to her school and made Easter shakers. I
also sang a hymm after reading Toad and Frog and found it interesting.
I also made friends with one of Florence's friends called Jessica, who was really friendly and helped me with a riddle about New York that we had to answer.
