Week 40. Last West Coast trip.

Hi! I've been having a lot of homework so I have problems managing time.

I left Vero on Wednesday to go to my cousin's house in Tampa. I went with Chiara's host parents because they had a wedding in St. Petersburg. We went in a truck and it was pretty uncomfortable but we saw an amazing sunset from there. We had dinner at Burger King and I arrived to my cousin's house at ten at night.

On Thursday I went to the beach with my cousin's daughter and son. We went to a beautiful beach that reminded me of Spain's sea. There were buildings and restaurants along the beach where you could get food. I went swimming in the Gulf of Mexico for the first time in my life. The water was cold and not salty at all. We had a panini for lunch but the bird ate all of mine. After the long day at the beach we had an amazing dinner and I realized that I was ver sunburnt.

On Friday I woke up early and I went with Peggy, mi dad's aunt, to buy some prom shoes and jewelry. Prom really stresses me out and I thought I would never find the perfect shoes, but I did. They are silver and they are super cute. After shopping we went to have lunch and we also went to the movies. On the afternoon I went with my cousin Robin, her daughter, Samantha, and her parents Peggy and Dick to a RAYS baseball game. I've never been to a professional game and I was so excited. We also got very good seats. We were literally touching the field. I started talking with the boy that picked up the balls and he ended up giving me professional baseball league ball and one of the player signed it for me. It was pretty cool being able to experience this. We had hotdogs and chips while we were watching the match. I learned some rules about baseball but I feel like I have much more to learn. I also bought a RAYS shirt that has my last name at the back.

On Saturday I woke up and we went kayaking along the river. The current helped you advance with no problems so I didn't have to do a lot of work. In the afternoon all my family from all around Tampa came to my cousin's house to have a nice dinner. It was actually so much fun. My dad's uncle is the funniest person ever and he is always asking me all this nonsense questions.

I left Sunday morning to go back to Vero and I celebrated mother's day with my host mom.

This week I've been doing AP tests and yesterday after school I went to a national park with Maddy that it's in Sebastian. We went biking! 10 miles!. We are getting fit. We did a lot of workout and it was pretty fun. Today I did my last AP test and I went to get something to eat with Anna. Taylor picked Chiara and me up and we went to the beach and we ended up going in a boat rode with some random collage kids. We went to an Island and we explored an had tons of fun. I'll post the pics of today on Sunday because I still have to download them from my phone.

I'm catching up with my scrapbook and I'm really liking the result. There is only one more week of school left and I'm pretty excited to Graduate. I'm counting the days till summer. Prom is this week so I'm gonna be stressed out but will post something on Sunday to tell you about my american experience in a high school dance.
