Gardaland 25.07.11

Gardaland is a theme park.



We stayed at the Gardaland Hotel.

Gardaland has lots of rides.





My favourite ride was the jungle rapids. They spin and they are like bumper boats.

There is a track that you follow.  At the end people squirt us.

I wanted to bring my bathers because there were geysers that squirted up.

I liked the magic house, at the end of the ride it feels as if you are upside down, but it was only the roof turning.

I went on two rides that were boats that went straight down and I got very wet. I was scared but excited.

Venice 24.07.11

On the weekend I went to Venice.

There are water streets instead of roads.

They use Gondolas instead of cars.



There are lots of Bridges in Venice.  One famous bridge is the Rialto bridge.

We caught a boat to Venice.  The ride took half an hour.

St. Marks square was filled with pigeons.  There were hundreds.

There were lots of people and it was raining on the day we went.

Aqua Park 09.07.11

On Sunday we went to an Aqua Park in Cecina.

It took an hour to get there.

When I got there I saw two water slides, one was curvy and the other one went straight down.


I went in the childrens area with my brother.

Then I went on the water slide.

I was scared on the way up but when I got up to the top I was confident to go down.







My brother went down once on my dad's lap, I went down three times.






We had a great time.

Italy 10.07.11

Italy is shaped like a boot.

It is a country in Europe.

The type of money we use in Italy is called the Euro.

The flag is coloured red white and green.

In Italy they speak Italian.

Some words they use are "andiamo", that means lets go.

"Buonasera" means good evening and "Ciao", which means goodbye but it also could mean hello.

We are staying in Tuscany.

When it is night in Italy it is day time in Australia.

It is hot in Italy and Australia is cold.

On the Weekend 01.07.11

On Saturday I went to the beach.

There was a swimming pool at the beach.

The sand is groomed every night.

It has a playground at the beach.

I had pasta for lunch and I had some coke.

We had to wear caps to go into the pool.

The beach has rows and rows of umbrella's and tents, you have your own spot on the beach and can not wander off.

It was FUN!!

On Sunday I hired a bike, Dad hired one to with a seat on the back for Jedd.

I hired one with gears.

I road 8 kms around the walls of Lucca.
 















Then we went to the playground.

Then we went for another ride home.


I had Gelati when I got home.
