the Wild Thing, a rollercoaster at the ValleyFair, and I'm home from my trip. We left Sunday night and I got very little sleep on the bus but I did get some. The next day included shopping and a Minnesota Twins game (they lost). On our way from the game back to the hotel our bus driver got us lost in downtown St. Paul. So we drove around till they found the intersate. We then had to get up early the next day to march at the ValleyFair(an amusment park) and then go on the rides. I went on a lot of rides I'm usually too chicken to on like the corkscrew and the wild thing which we went on twice. We got back to our hotel to find out our pool was closed so we found the courtyard and played with a beach ball. Our last day there was spent at the Mall of America. Me and a friend went on some of the rides in there at the amusment park and of course some shopping. We came back home the next day and the bus was dead silent for at least half of the way home since everyone was sleeping.
Then yesterday I got up early to run in a walk/run 5k and i won but they didn't give away prizes. They were just promoting good health. We went home, I took a nap, got up for lunch, and took another nap. Later yesterday night we went to the dam and watched the fireworks display. I wasn't able to come on here yestday because I was sleeping and we lost electricity.
Now I just got done watching a parade and later tonight is the street dance. And I think we are going to light off fireworks.
And that is where I have been and what I have been doing for the last week.
