Spain Day 6!

This morning we got up late and hopped on the bus to drive two hours back to Málaga to get on the plane. The plane was delayed a little so we hung out in the airport for a while before flying home. 

We arrived & got our bags & ate dinner at the airport & everything worked out perfectly. Then we came home and I Skyped with my mom. :) 

I just finished unpacking and now I'm super tired! I'm looking forward to another week of vacation. Good night!

Last day of skiing

Today was our last day of skiing, tomorrow we have to drive home... But it was really fun here and it went by so fast. The only thing that bothered me was how much ice there was, because I'm not comfortable skiing on ice and then I look ridiculous with my skis far apart trying not to fall down... But oh well.:) Something funny is that at the beginning of the week the boys were always waiting for Lara and I because we were slower than them, but by today we were the ones waiting for them...

Warm day & friends

Today was quite warm, which I found really weird. Because I generally associate skiing with freezing temperatures. But it was also really nice, and Lara and I took some cool pictures:)

Tonight we went to a restaurant in town and us "kids" (me, Lara, Dominic, and Joshua) wanted to stay later, so my aunt and uncle just went home and left us there. It was really fun because we spent two hours laughing at stupid pictures and telling stories and it's so fun to make a new friend. I'm excited for the few days we have left here in Sedrun.✌️

Skiing & tubing

This morning Lara and I walked down about 40 feet to the bakers and got gipfeli (croissants) for breakfast. Here that's a totally normal thing to do but for us in America it's just weird. But it's also really cool to have fresh baked breakfast so close to your front door. :) 

Today we went skiing again as usual and in the afternoon went tubing down a mini ski slope thing. It was super fun and Lara and I almost slid off the slope... And the boys decided to switch and try snowboarding or skiing (whichever one they hadn't done before) and it was super hilarious to watch. We're already halfway through our time here in Sedrun, it's crazy how time flies. 

Chegle

Today we went skiing all day again :), and then after dinner we went Swiss bowling, called "chegle". It was really fun, even though I'm generally horrible at bowling... But here they use heavier balls (I think) with different holes for your fingers (one for your thumb and one for the rest of your fingers) the lane is shorter, and the pins are set up different. It was weird. For me. 

Friday & "sportferie"

Today was the last day of school for two weeks! It was super fun because all the teachers really didn't want to do anything, so we had a bunch of easy classes. And after school I went to give my friend her report card, but I got a bit lost along the way and ended up taking about 45 minutes longer than I should have to get to her house... In the freezing cold wind. Oh well. When I got back my grandma made me hot chocolate:)

Tomorrow Aunt Claudia, Uncle Ralph, Dominic, Lara, and I are going to a ski place for one week of the two weeks of vacation we have from school. I'm really excited!

Such exciting vacation stuff

Today I cleaned up my room and helped my grandparents finish up their packing... They leave tomorrow morning super early. (Actually this morning-oops)

Super excited for New York! I can't wait:)

Chocolate

Today I went shopping in Zurich for chocolate and such for my friends back home. It was fun, although having a bunch of chocolate in my room makes me constantly hungry.

I also Skyped with three of my friends:) I miss you so much Kiley, Rose, and Stephanie. And everyone else. Only about two weeks until New York! 

Tomorrow I'm going to church with my grandma and then doing more homework. Yay only one more week until vacation!

Fun times

Yesterday we went to a dinner with my cousins, Dominic and Lara. We played games and listened to music... It was fun. This was the gorgeous sunset on the way home.

Today I went to Blau ring, which is like a girl scout-type thing here with Lara. We had a muffin-decorating contest, and guess who won? This girl:) Here's a picture of my cupcake... It's modeled off of Olaf from the Disney movie Frozen. (The white bits around him are him melting;))

After we decorated muffins, we went to the Sihl river, which is about 5 minutes away from where my grandparents live. We played in the water and walked across the rocks over the river to get home.

Tonight we went to the "badi" (pool) and went night-swimming with Dominic and Lara. I've never been night-swimming, and it was super exciting.

Tomorrow is Dominic's confirmation, and then we get to go to lunch with some relatives:) Busy, busy, busy!
