Day 2 July 1, 2011 Canada Day

Today is Canada Day! We all were told to get dressed in a Canada t-shirt so we did. After that the three girls (Jasmin, Colette and I) went downstairs and finished making our fort. It was very complicated. Jasmin took umbrellas from the part of the basement that is our Jiddo’s (aerobic for grandfather) work area. I told Jasmin she shouldn’t, but then I regretted it because know we have the best fort ever. There were a few holes that needed patching up. The boys wanted a cool fort too. We tried helping them but everything we suggested they didn’t like. We brought all our candy that Colette gave us down into the fort. Colette also brought our iPods and my charger down. It was a nice comfy fort.


Later at 2:00 we left our grandparent’s house to go to some of our friends. I slept on the car ride there. Our friends live by a water tower, so every water tower we drove by I kept asking if it was theirs. Their drive way was decorated with little Canadian flags. The boys wanted to take one home. When we got inside Jasmin and I got WIFI so we could update our electronic devises (or get a few apps). We went outside and James (one of the kids we were visiting, he has a brother named Alex) gave me an iPad charger so I could charge my iPod. We had a drawing contest. We had to draw something Canadian. I drew a moose my sister had to help me draw the antlers. My sister drew a beaver and a MontrĂ©al Canadiens symbol. There was other people at the party too, a girl named Serena and a boy named David. After the drawing contest we played a game called Bingo. Bingo is a game when there is a ball and you through it at a person and if the person misses it they get a letter or if you through poorly you will get a letter, the first one who spells bingo is out, and that was me. Then we had a Canadian pop quiz. We each had teams. There were random Canadian questions, such as who is the Prime minister of Canada, name three famous Canadians. The one question that my team got stuck on is who the voice of Sherk is. Our team leader (Alex) put down Jim Carrey when it really was Mike Myers.
