Spring Break 2011

This past week me and my family went on a vacation. We flew into Los Angeles and the first thing we did on our vacation was to go see the Hollywood sign.  It was awesome! I was so thrilled to see the Hollywood sign because I love making movies and I have always wanted to be famous so it just makes me think-- free access to fame!  I like to think about how lots of famous people have also been to the Hollywood sign and how it's been in lots of movies.  After that we went to see the Hollywood Star Walk of Fame.  It was so cool when we went there because we saw a whole bunch of stars that had famous people's names printed on them like Godzilla, Sandra Bullock, Harry Potter, Brittany Spears, Johnny Depp, Michael Jackson, and tons more!

Then the next day we got a ride in a taxi which drove us to a cruise ship called The Norwegian Star  and that's where we spent the rest of the week.  It was so fun!  The first day which was Saturday, we checked everything out like the restaurants, the pools, the theater and a whole bunch of other cool stuff.  On Sunday, we spent all day at sea.  We played shuffle board, and a game of chess with giant two and a half feet tall pieces.  We weren't allowed to go swimming because it was Sunday.  At dinner time we went to a nice Italian restaurant.  After that we went to a hypnotist show.  It was so funny!  He got the guests to do embarrassing things like pretending to be famous musicians, and men pretending to be underwear models.  But the funniest thing was the boy who lost his bum!  It was hilarious.  On Monday,  we hired a water taxi to take us on a water tour.   It was so cool!  We saw many famous arches.  Then we got out of the boat and and played in the water and on the beach all day.  The water was crystal blue.  On Tuesday, the ship dropped us off again at Cabo San Lucas and me and Elisabeth got our whole heads braided, and then after that Elisabeth and Ashton went to see real baby tigers!  We also went to the Mexican flea markets and got some souvenirs.  On Wednesday, they dropped us off at Puerto Vallarta and we went on lots of zip lines through the forest.  It was so fun and so far up in the air!  On Thursday, we went to a magic show on the ship.  One of the tricks the magician did was making a girl fly!  On Friday we continued cruising at sea heading home. We swam, ate, and swam some more. Then me and Hunter went up and down on the elevators door bell ditching people and then getting back on the elevator to run away. While me and Hunter were doing that, we saw the magician in person and it was so cool because he's famous in Los Vegas.  So we talked to him and then we promised him we would go to his show that night.   So we did and we were in the very front row and he kept winking at me and Hunter and threw big white confetti all over us.  It was so awesome!  It was a very fun cruise.   It was my favorite Spring Break ever!  We had a blast!!!
