I am back! The Bahamas was very fun. yes so we shall start with my all nighter. ummm thursday night I didn't sleep. and i stayed up and chatted with people and watched TV and looked for a stamp. Friday everyone woke up around 2. I put on some different clothes and was ready in about 10 minutes. I then marched around the house getting other people to hurry. We finally left at 3:30am and drove up to Phili. I listened to music on my iPod the whole way up. Once we finally got to the airport, it was morning. around 6something. I bought myself a chocolate chip muffing but it tasted very bad so my brother ate it. Due to that, i bought myself some breakfast thing from mickey d's. that tasted like shit too so my brother ate that as well. yeah so the plane. umm we were on there and i listened to my iPod the entire time. I had a window seat so I also enjoyed looking at the clouds and such. Once we arrived in the Bahamas, we had to go through this stuff and get our luggage and then we got in this van thing that took us to the hotel we stayed at. our room wasn't ready when we got there cause it was still rather early so we just sat in the lounge for a while. I ended up falling asleep there. Once we got our room we all took a nap. haha i woke up and my mom goes ready for dinner? and i was all like..dinner?? and shes like yup! so i was allll confused like crazy cause i thought it was the next day. It took me quite a while to figure out it was still friday. Anyway, we went to Amici's for dinner. I had spaghetti. That's my friday. Sunday we woke up early and headed to the beach. we hung around there most of the day. I had a few pina coladas. :o) They gave me ruuum and such. We had lunch at the Dolphin Grill. Then we went and hung around at the beach again. After the beach we got ready for dinner. We ate at a place called Islands. I had shrimp tempura for an appetizer, steak for dinner, and chocolate mousse for dessert. After that, we went to the casino. We only played slots but it was still fun. Its crazy there..they really don't care if i'm there or not and they even offered me all kinds of drinks but at home, i'm not even allowed to put a foot in. yeahhh anyway that was about it. Went back to the room and went to bed. Sunday I was first up. It was also my Daddy's 50th Birthday. He's oooold now. anyway...I'm pretty sure we went downtown that day. We went to the big straw market downtown. I got a t-shirt there. The rest of my family also bought a ton of stuff. The people in the straw market were crazzzy. If you even looked at something it was like you haddd to buy it. It was neat. We also hung around at the dock for a little while after. There were some HUGE cruise ships there. Then there were these two little boys who sang to us for a dollar each. they were cute. That was about all for downtown on sunday. We went back to the hotel and hung around at the beach the rest of the day. Dinner that night was at Avacados. The best place of all. I started off with my bread. then I had conch cakes, filet mignon(yay I can't spell), and chocolate cake. Yummy stuff. We went back to the casino and then back to the room for bed. I Am Sam was on TV so we watched that. It was a VERY good movie. That's my Dad's 50th Birthday. Monday! Bimini's for breakfast as usual. my bagel with butter like normal. Then beach all day. A tad bit of painful sunburn. Islands for dinner. Shrimp, Conch, Chocolate cake. Yeah I think we went to the Casino one last time. Watched I, Robot. Bed. That would be it. _11:23 of the day I came home. I'll finish this baby tomorrow._ yeah okay i'ma finish now. so tuesday we went back town town in the morning. we bought a ton more stuff at the big straw market. We also went on a horse and buggy ride. haha me and my mom had a driver named marley who was probably about 19? he kept saying i was pretty and hes like "so where are you from..heaven?" lol my mom was cracking up. She also thought it was funny how the guy in the truck blew me a kiss. yeah so anyway after the buggy ride we sorta just walked around by the docks then we went back to the hotel. at the hotel we ate lunch at a buffet called Bimini's and then went out to the beach. My dad and brother went out snorkeling with a guy named captain elvis. (yes, elvis is really his name.) if you ever talk to my dad, ask him about the baracuda cause he takes great pride in telling that story. after he came back i went kyaking in the ocean for a little bit with him. We ate dinner at Avacodo's since it was everyones favorite place. We watched I Am Sam that night. Wow that was an amazing movie. Then we went to sleep and that's it. okay so wednesday. this time we went to the straw market across the street. it was much smaller but the people were a lot nicer. They all call my dad Troubble cause he's always causing it. Hope was the first person we met there. She was soo funny. She started my dad's nickname. Anyway, that was about it. We went back to the hotel after that and then hung out at the beach. Me and my dad went hobbie catting. it was fun but there wasn't too much wind. we ate dinner at the Forge. That was soo cool. You sit at these tables with built in grills and cook you dinner. It's pretty nifty and cool. Then we went back to the room. 50 First Dates was on so we watched that, and then we went to bed. Thursday was out last day there. We went back to the little straw market yet again in the morning to buy some gifts for a few people. We talked to Hope again and my mom mentioned getting my hair braided and she introduced us to Tania who said she would do it, so we made plans to come back later. We stayed at the beach for a while and i also went hobbie catting with my dad again. we really needed a bit more wind but oh well. after all this i went and washed my hair and me and my mom went over to see Tania. Tania was very nice. She did an amazing job on my hair with the assistance of her daughter latoya. My dad came over a little later and was talking to everyone. They still called him troubble. He ended up talking to an older lady who made beautiful hand bags. He gave her the nickname Uptown cause of where she lived. So after about 2 hours Tania finished my hair. She also gave me this beautiful bracelet made of conch shells from the bahamas. We hugged good bye and then i went back to the beach. Once i got back i had found out a shark was seen but i went in the water anyway since there were a few people in there. The day before there was a baracuda in there and the life gaurd went in with a spear gun. Anyway, we went to our favorite resturaunt, Avacados, for our last dinner. We also went to the little shopping mall in our hotel one final time and then we went to bed. On Friday we all woke up early. We had breakfast at Bimini's and then went back to the little straw market cause my brother got a stain on his new shirt and wanted a new one. So we got him his shirt. Hope, Tania, and Uptown weren't there yet. After that me and Ryan went down the the drug store and bought all the Mr. Big's they had. A Mr. Big is a candy bar from england. I tryed a whole bunch of new candy's but those were the BEST. Once we got our candy, we checked out and waited for our bus. The bus came and took us to the air port. We were a little early so i listened to my iPod as we waited. A thunderstorm also happened during that time. It was soo wierd though cause most of the sky was blue but it was a very bad storm. Anyway, we finally got on the plane. The ride home was crazy and I loved it. We had much turbulance or however it's spelled cause of some storm. So everything was all bouncy and stuff. When we finally got the the air port in philli we were about to land. we were about 10 feet from the run way. i would see it and everything but then all of a sudden we sharply went up. Then the piolot came on and said we were all set to land and stuff but another plane cut in front of us on the runway. That meant we could have crashed. He sounded cranky about that. we ended up circling around once and then we safely landed. As soon as i got off the plane, I heard them say last call for boarding on flight whatever to buffalo. It was just wierd. but yeah..we waited for our luggage at baggage claim next. Mine was actually the first one off. Once we got that we called the Vallet and they came and picked us up in our car. after paying we drove home and stopped at a diner on the way. I had a sausage omlette. We finally got home and we were greeted by our extremely excited dog. I went in and found all the notes my cousin left for me and thats about it. I also got the letter telling my who my new snail mail pen pals are. I have 2 girls from Mexico and Australia, as well as 2 boys from New Zealand and Indonesia. I wrote two of them but the mail man came before i finished the other two letters so i will be mailing them out tomorrow. so since my vacation I haven't done much. on Sat. I went to my yia yia and da's house and today I went to a few stores with my parents. nothing exciting yet but don't worry...this week is warped tour and there should be a family get together. that should give me some stuff to say. I'm really loving these candy bard from europe. they're awesome. yeah I need to get out more soo you people should call me and make plans with me.
