Sixth day in Portugal




I got up at 7:30 and the slept for another hour. When I got up I felt like I got a lot of sleep. I had time to read be for leaving that hotel. After packing we all got in the car with our suitcases to stop by the hell hole. It’s a place where there are cliffs and water. We did not stay and drove to Peniche and found our hotel. It is in the middle of nowhere ( almost ). After steeling in we went to Obidos to see a castle. It’s a fortified city. We took this amazing caleche ( horse ride in the castle ). The horses where really beautiful and soft. I loved it so much. It was expensive though. L After the ride we walked for 45 mintunes in the castle city. We went on the top ( like always ) and looked in some stores. We decided to leave after that because there was nothing else to do. We ended up going to Nazare. We went to a beach there but we did not have our towels or baithin suites. It was so windy it made it unpleasant. I had to seat on my mom’s shirt and try to read Breaking Dawn. I got to read 1 chapter while I was there. My brother had to dry him self of with his shirt. When he got out the water ( he was wearing his baithing suite all day like always ) we sat down to think. We decided to go look for a restaurant. Did I mention at the beach I had goose bumbs because I was cold? We found a restaurant and it was good! J The best part: not aloud to smock! After eating I got an ice cream cone and we drove back to the new hotel. I like this one better because we have 2 bathrom, 2 real bedrooms, cups for everyone and more room. At the restaurant there was a place where a couple hit there head because they did not see it when they where walking. It was outside. I laughed so much watching them! ;)

Fith day in Portugal


I got up to eat. After, in the car we headed for Lisbon Down Town. We first went to a caslte that was build in the water, well then water is. Then we went to go see the statue of the explorers and after to see Monastery. We ate a popsicle while waiting in line because it was very hot out, not like last night when I was wearing a sweater. After waiting in line we got in and went around. The line was about 2 hours but we only spent half an hour inside. It was really beautiful! We ate some lunch at three and I was starving by then. I had a burger and fries and it was the best thing I have eating in Portugal. We went to another castle and walked around it. To get to it we took a tramway! It was really fun and different! We passed by the Hard Rock cafĂ© in liboa. But we did not by anything because it’s expensive. We walked a lot to get back cause the car was far. On the way home we ate at Pinto’s again.

Fourth day in Portugal

ps the computer wont let me send more pics...

Today we spent three and a half hours driving to Lisbon, Estoril. W nee took one little stop to eat something for lunch. Our hotel here is nicer, I find. There is a pool here too. The only thing is that there is only one bed for two and two cots, witch one is comfortable but not the other one. One night I will sleep on the comfortable bed and the other on the coach, I think. When we got here we placed our things and when we knew what we where going to do we went in the car to go to the Royal Palace and to the castle Pena witch are both on top of a mountain. We went to the Royal Palace first. We saw where the Kind used to live and all. It was cool but a little long. Then to the castle. There where so many clouds! We where in it actually. We got to climb and we walked a lot during this trip! Then we headed home. We are now about to go look for a restaurant to eat because it’s super time!
We ate at Pinto’s tonight. We where there for a long time because there was only 1 waiter and he was working so hard I felt really bad for him. At one point, when someone left their water, he took it, headed to the corner of the wall since we where at side and drank it! When a waiter needs water like that and you see him running, all you can think is: Can I help you?

3rd day in Portugal












Last night my parents told Sean and I that they will be waking up @ eight o’clock, so when my brother woke up at 8:10 and woke me up, I decided to get up as well. I thought I heard my parents up so I went to go eat some breakfast. After eating I got dressed and then made my bead and brushed my teeth. After that, I read 1 chapter of my book. I finally decided to go to the reception to go on the internet since they where not up yet and it was 10:30. I copy pasted my text on the blog and went on FB for a couple minutes. I decided to come back up stairs and a minute after coming inside they got out of their room. Sean went in the pool while waiting for them to get ready. We got in the car not too long after that and went to Faro, witch is the old town. We eat lunch at Mc Donalds, but they did not have my Fruitopia. L We visited the cathedral. We climbed up the stairs and saw a really nice view of the town. The stairs where really old, and hard to walk up. There where bells at the top. When we got down we walked around the small roads made out of bricks and got to a place where we cold go on a boat ride to the desert island. Us not going was the best decision of the day cause it was so hot! You know that it get’s really hot and you get dehydrated easily so the bottles that they sell over here contain three times much water. After visiting that old town we went back into the car to head to a beach not too close and not too far. Since my dad made a wrong turn when we did not really know where we where we were headed to Spain! On the high way! My dad got so pissed. We finally found our way thanks to the M. know it all ( GPS ). We headed towards a castle and found it but it was closed. I don’t think it is ever open. So on the way to the beach we found a market and got a couple things. We found the beach with great difficulty and the help of a pedestrian. At the beach there where two guys helping people park. He saw one guy get out of his spot and let us go there. The spot was the best spot cause it was right in front the beach! The beach was nice. Not as cold water as the previous ones. We stayed like two hours. It was nice and I was so happy to get in cold water because I was boiling hot!
Ps water is my best friend since I don’t like any other drink!
Ps2 the only time I could send things on the computer is when im in the reception room and at night. I love coming down when the moon is bright out in the sky!

Second day in Portugal

Second day in Portugal
My day started when my parents came in my room to see if Sean and I where awake and I was half up so I woke up. I got up a minute later and drank some apple juice. The first sip was Ok but after I did not like it. It was better then the one at the American Diner but too sweet I guess. I had plain bread with an apple. When we where ready we went in the car to go to the beach on our way. The beach is called Praia de Rocha. The water was freezing again but at least this time there was no seaweed! My dad did not come in of course! He walked around. We walked in the water towards this big rock in the water but out. And we sat on this other rock that we saw. When my mom got out of the water Sean and I went looking for seashells and I found some nice ones! My dad had to call us in the dry off to continue our day. I was not dry so I stayed in my wet shorts and in my bikini top ( the one from garage ). We went back in the car to go to Lagos. We went to visit the caves. We took a boat and the driver was a good one I must say, and IT WAS SOOOOOOOO COOL! I really enjoyed it. When I get back I’ll have like 100 pics so you will be able to see. I can’t explain how cool and amazing it was. We went throw places I did not think possible. When off the boat and in the car to go get something to eat. It was good. I know surprising! It was called Mama Mias. It’s a pizza place. After eating we went to the Ponta de Sagres witch one of the two points of Portugal. We had a hard time getting there and we even went through a littles village and we went on a path that was a croising walk and we were not supposed to and then a police saw us! He was like what are you doing? My dad talked us out of a ticket. His good! The furthest one is Cap St. Vinent. The first one we stayed for about an hour. We walked a lot. Then the other one we stayed not too long. It was beautiful! On our way home we were looking for fishing pace. We could not find it but we went by a beach. Well got out of the car and filmed the waves. I saw a sign that had a bull. Then Sean and I started saying stuff like: Bill the bilder was on a bull bilding a bleu beach. I laughed! I slept in the car on the way home. For summer I hate bread and grapes from home since it was 10. Now it’s midnight but fells like 9.
Did i mension that my brother's name in portuguesse means floor? Well my dad was calling me wall since my brother is floor.

departure, Arrival , and the rest of the day in Portugal

It all started when my dad drove us all to the airport in Canada. In one of the lines, me and my mom played a hand game! It was noisy, people were looking at us and smiling J! Then we went threw security. It was not that bad this time. And we did not have to go threw the machine that scan’s your body. After a little while we found our selves where you are waiting to go down the hall to get to the plane. There I got a slush!!! Then my dad and I went looking for food for him and my mom. We found Burger king at the other end of the part of the airport. We have a winner! We soon found ourselves in the plane. It was a small plane. Tow rows, hall and two rows. There were not more then 50 people. After an hour and a half the plane had landed and we where in Philadelphia. We had to wait 3 hours before going on the next plane. WE saved 45 minutes of walk by taking the shuttle bus. It was funny because the bus was near the planes. To kill time we decided to walk around. The airport was huge! We hate at a pizza place in the airport. After easting we went back to where we had to be. We got on the plane and it was bigger. It had 2 rows, hall and 3 rows but it was very long. We got on the plane at 8:30. They served us summer at 9 something. They showed 2 movies. First Dear John and then M. Fox. I did not watch the movies, I read Breaking Dawn. I tried to sleep at 11:30 so my brother would sleep too. I woke up at 12:30 and then could not go back to sleep. I was very comfortable! I had my legs on top of my mom and I was leaned to my brother since I was in the middle of them. My dad was sitting on the other side. There was this woman that was sitting beside him that would not SHUT UP!! But my dad talk a lot too so it was Ok for him. The only time she did not speak was when she was a sleep. I only got 100 pages read. I guess I’m a really slow reader. L When we got off the plane we had to go look for the luggage. There was a long line. We had to show the our passports and tell then how long we would be there for. I was watching a movie on my Ipod while waiting. We found our luggage very easily and they where almost all together! Of course then my brother went to the bathroom. We headed to the place to look for the car rental place. There was a hall with many but we soon discovered that ours was not there. My dad decided to go to the phone booth and call the number. The guy said there was a person waiting for us with a sign. After a while we found him, yes we found him and not him find us! My dad came back and he signed some papers. The men and my dad went to go get the car. I was sitting and the side outside with my brother and to my surprise I was kinda cold. We have a black small car. The windows in the back are not automatic but the ones in the front are.?? There was my suitcase in the middle of me and my brother so I was not able to sleep on top of him. L I think we had a three to four hour drive! I was a sleep for most of the time. I had my music on the hole time. We went from Lisbon to the Algarve. My parents had a hard time finding the hotel! They got lost… When we got to the hotel I was up because we stopped at a place and I got out of the car to wake up. At the hotel we found out that our room is at the furthest place from the car. 3rd floor 303. NO ELEVATOR L So with our suitcases we came up all the stairs. We now know an other place to go but we would not have been able to with all our stuff. The hotel has 2 bedrooms with four beds, but my bedroom is also has the door to out side and a table to eat. We have a small kitchen/laundry room. Of course a small bathroom as well. The view out the balcony is the pool and a bit of the ocean. It’s a nice view! The hour difference is of 5 hours. So example, it’s 10 here and 5 there. We went to go eat at American Diner. I ordered 2 hot-dogs and fries. She gave me 2 plates of sausages and fries. I was only able to eat 1 plate. It was huge. The reason I ordered that plate was because it was under up to 12 years old. I felt bad. That was our super. We brought the food back home later. There where 3 stores that sell towels and floatties and that stuff. We went to 1 and we all got a towel since we did not bring any. Mine has 2 dolphins. It’s mostly navy blue with many different colors. Can’t wait to show you guys! It says Portugal and Algarve on it! We then headed to the beach that was apparently a 15 minute walk. The water was freezing but Sean, Christine and I got in. My dad only got his toes wet. ;) I dried on my towel but not completely cause my shirt was all wet after. We went back to the hotel not too long after and Sean and I went in the pool. To my surprise it was cold. I got out early. Meanwhile my parents where at the grocery store. I took a shower as soon as I got home. I was in bed at nine here. I slept for 12 hours. Then it was the next day.

And then we biked home a longer way to get excercice. We went by Sheeva's park. And guess who I saw..? SUP! he was with his friends, charles and i dont know who else cuz i did not look for long. When I was headded there I saw boys so I was trying to avoid eye contact but then I looked and sup was waving at me so I waved back but it was a funny wave. i think I kinda like him again. But not when he is with Camille or who ever! Charles had a weird expression on his face... mmmm. So ya, then I did the worse thing a human could do on a day that feels like 38 degres, I walked my dog. I was sweating like a big fat pig!

Joe's pool party

Joelle ( my best friend from 6 grade ) invited me over for a pool party! There were 2 girls that i knew from her b-day party and the other girl I did not know. We waited 1 hour be for going in the pool because we were waiting for other girls to come. joe decided to text them and here was their answer: 1) i thought it was Jeudi, I'm working 2) oh, i cant 3)I'm busy. If she did not text them then they would not have told her. I would have gotten really mad if I was in her place!
Anyway, I had fun. We were in the pool for the hole time after. We ate hamburgers and hot-dogs! WE took a fiew pics 2! I had more fun then I tought I would! I then biked home and watched Pretty Littles Liars taped ( fas foward commercials ).

A Week To Remember :)

Ok, so I have apparently decided to tell you aboout my week (June 27th to July 4th) :D
It was a week full of adventure LOL
it's as if I always had something to do, except maybe tuesday... xD
Here it goes:
Sunday, June 27th: Today, our fellow blog member, VANESSA came over to my house. We went for a long swim and i mean LONG because we were in the pool for 3 hours or so. It was lots of fun!!! Then, after eating hamburgers for supper, we went to the park. We got bored of climbing trees :P so then we decided to go search for the ice cream place i used to go to when I was younger. I doubted my directional skills, but in the end we found it. It was a longer walk then I thought :) I ate bubble gum ice cream and vanessa ate soft vanilla ice cream with multicolored sprinkles. It was getting dark so I called my dad to come pick us up. After Vanessa left, I watched a movie called Law Abiding Citizen with my family. It was creepy, but very good.
Monday, June 28th: Today, I went shopping with my parents. We went to Carrefour Laval as usual. We went into this random store and the lady working there was trying to convince me to buy something that I didn't really like, it was pretty hilarious. Of course, I didn't get it. Next, we stopped at Browns and I bought purple Converses (the thin kind). I LOVE EM!!! At Simons, I got a black&white striped skirt and a pair of capris for camp. At Garage, I got a ruffled dark blue skirt and a yellow tube top. And finally, at Payless, I got a pair of silver flipflops. My mom finds it funny that everytime we go shopping, I come home with the most items x) . Later, I went swimming with my dad in the rain.
Tuesday, June 29th: Today, I did pratically N.O.T.H.I.N.G :) I was in my pjs all day!!! I decided to continue reading Eclipse, I was at page 200 out of 600 and something and I really wanted to finish reading it before the movie. I read all day and only stopped, when I realized I was missing Pretty Little Liars :O LOL After the show, I watched Michael Jackson: This Is It because it was playing on TV. At around 11pm, I continued reading Eclipse and when I went to sleep at 1am, I had 50 pages left.
Wednesday, June 30th: Today, I woke and realized it was ECLIPSE DAY!!!!!! I finished the last 50 pages in 30 minutes and I was bouncing off the walls with excitement :D I had to keep myself busy all day with games and stuff because it seemed like time was moving VERY slowly. Julia, Emily and I arrived at the Colisee an hour and a half before the movie started (Zoe met up with us later) and had to wait in line. Good thing we came early 'cause a few minutes later A LOT of people arrived. The floor where we were standing was sticky so we decided to get Famous magazines and sit on them. We sat on Michael Cera's face xD Sooo funnyyy :) We got awesome seats and we bought plenty of junk for the movie. HEEHEEHEE it was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE ECLIPSE!!!!!! MY FAVE BOOK TOO!!!! TAYLOR LAUTNER *drool* THE GUY WHO PLAYS RILEY *drool* :) We were at the movies till midnight because our showing started at 9:45. AAAAAAH, definetly seeing it again!!! (L)
Thursday, July 1st: Today, Julia slept over after the movie. It was a lot of fun!!! We stayed up till like 5 am and when we looked outside, the sky was pink :O SOOO COOOL ;) We were so tired at the end that we didn't even remember what we'd been talking about for the past few hours :P We woke up at 12pm and I had 2 waffles for breakfast and Julia had 6 toasts xD Later, we went swimming for a bit, but not for long 'cause Julia had to leave at 3pm. Her sister, Sara(h), um not sure how to spell her name, was coming back from Europe. At night, I watched Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, it was pretty good.
Friday, July 2nd: Today, I did some errands with my parents. We went grocery shopping at Cosco and then, we went to get the school uniform. Ugh. I didn't want to do anything school related. The uniforms not bad. We're all gonna look like prissy little private school kids though xD haha. The guys uniform makes me crack up :) It's pretty awful!!! They look like nerds :P Piacente didn't have all the stuff though, they were missing lots of things. It's too bad that the Converse can only be worn in spring :( After, we went gazebo searching LMAO I bought 2 noodles for the pool. At night, me & my mom watched Twilight & New Moon so we will be prepared to see Eclipse together ;).
Saturday, July 3rd: Today, it's my great-grandmother's 89th birthday!!! My grandma is having my nana's party at her place. I wore my new clothes that I bought monday to the party. Chloe (almost 4yrs old) and Aidan (7months old), my cousins, were there and I babysat them. After an afternoon of that, I was dead xD They drained me of all my energy... Well, mostly Chloe because Aidan mostly smiled and drooled :) Awwwwwn, soooo cute (L) On the other hand, Chloe ran around like a maniac :P LOL little hyperactive child <3>
Sunday, July 4th: Today, Armig, Mary and I were supposed to go see the movie Grown Ups, but things came up and they weren't able to come soo I am going to see Eclipse AGAIN with my parents :D YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY :) I start working at camp tomorrow ;) & because I have nothing to do today I am writing everything I did this week in the blog ;) heehee (L) I'm gonna go swim now!!!
THAT'S ALL FOR NOW!!!!! <3>
HOPE YOU'RE HAVING A GREAT TRIP ALIIII!!!
-E-Dog-
P.S: If you want me to post pictures of stuff I did this week, all you need to do is ask!!!
