Day 8
Today we went to the Pacific College where my aunt works at as a professor. We went all around Campus and saw what college is like. We saw my aunts office and the students rooms. She has written many books, like The Ethics and Poetics of Alterity in Asian American Poetry.




They also had Redwood trees at the college. The redwood trees were 30 stories high or even higher!!! They are one of the biggest trees in the world.

When we got back to the house we went swimming in there pool again.
Day 7
Today we packed up so we could go to my Uncles house, A 5 hour drive. I slept the whole time. On the way we saw windmills and took pictures of them. When we arrived we relaxed at there pool for a while. He warned us of black widow spiders when we were there. He also had a real nice dog. For dinner we had MORE chinise food.

Today we went to the Zuem Museum. I made my own movie and dressed up for it. I was a weatherman and my brother was a police man. We got to make are own scrips and pick are backround that we wanted.We also did special effects and Clay animations .
Then at 8:00 really 11:00pm we walked to china town again (freezing night) and ate at House of Nan King, A famous restaurant. I had the tower of noodles. I also had some spring rolls and peanut sauce.The line was soooo long!!!

Day 5
Today we went on a whale watching cruise. We didn’t see any whales though. All we saw was sea lions and my brother, Max’s through up on the side of the boat. I fell asleep. We saw a live sunfish!!!!!! I was asleep though, but I saw pictures of it.





Afterwards we went to Garidelli Square http://www.ghirardellisquare.com/ and had the best ice cream and chocolate ever!!! We took a cable car to get there. It was realy fun.

For dinner we had Italian food. I had gelato for the first time. It is the best thing ever!!!

Day 4
Today, I woke up at 8:40am it was really, 11:40 here though. My dad went to a conference he had and my mom went to the work-out room to work-out. That meant I had to baby sit my brother.
Later we went to the Exploratorium and saw tons and tons of really neat science stuff . We were there all day and didn’t even get halfway through. We wanted to go back it was so fun. The building and setting were realy pretty, but the fun was all inside. We saw everything related to scince, but it was fun. There was symetry, tornados, a mirror that you can mash two people into one person, floating objects, black magnetic sand, and very pretty settings.

Day 3
Today we went to the beach. We took a trolley to get there again. We didn't have are bathing suits though so we didn't get to go into the water. That didn't stop me from going close to the it without my shoes on.... Then a big wave came up and i got soaked. The water was very cold and salty. So now I have been in both the Atlantic and the Pacific ocean. I had to walk a LONG way. Later we were walking along the side and I saw this realy cool pile of rocks. Some had seashells in them. I wanted to take them with me but I couldn't so I just took a pictures of it. We also saw a dead jellyfish on the side were we were walking so we took a picture of that too.


After the beach, we went to Golden Gate park. That was a LONG and horrible walk. I guess we were on the bad side of the park or something because there was nothing fun around us. So we tried to walk to the closest trolly pickup. That was VERY far away. We walked 3 miles!!! My brother was whining the WHOLE time!!! Then we finaly got to the trolly pickup and just went back to the hotel to go swimming in the pool.
