The Greatest Summer EVER!!

This summer I went to Mexico for the third time. It was amazing. I left to mexico on June 19 and was there for six weeks. Which means I basicaly missed six swim meets. While I was in Mexico I went to Acapulco. Which was really really really HOT!! It was so hot that the whole entire five days that I was there I didn't have in zits because I was sweating so much. In Acapulco I went to the beach and got a great tan. And on the same day I went to Cici which is a huge swim park like Lagoon but only way better. Now that just wasn't a great tan by the end of the day, it was a big burning sun burn. In the end my mom was the one with the greatest sunburn even when she was telling us to get out of the sun. When she was just sitting under a hut watching us play. After we went a bus back to my grandma's house. And thats when a learned how to NOT sew a cloth napkin to a sofa cushion. A few days later we were really bored so we decided we would go to the plaza in Tepoztlan. Which is half and hour drive up a valley. The valley was filled with huge trees and birds. My mom. sister, brother and me of course then thought that we should walk up the mountain and up the pryamid. So we did and it took us four hours to get up and down from the mountain. It was really high so it got cold. And on the way down the pryamid we saw racoon/monkey looking things chasing people with food. Later on I went to Peubla which is a real old city that has a safri zoo. Were they let kangaroos, lions, and girffas run free while you watch from a bus. We stayed in a really nice hotel and I had pizza for the very first time in a month. My family was going to go but the bus had already left and we had already bought the bus tickets. We went on a first class bus and I sat by this really annoying kid who wouldn't let me go to sleep. And no it wasn't my little brother. And then it came down to the last two weeks of our vacation. So I had to do all my last minute shoe shopping along with eating anything I didn't usally eat. Before the first week was over I nagged by mom so that we would go out and eat and buy stuff with the money I hadn't spent yet. In the mean time while my mom got ready to go out I started watching this really old movie about little red ridinghood and how all the evil villians from other movies wanted to kill her. (including Frankinstin!) In that time the movie got really funny because you could tell that the costumes were really cheap but still I was enjoying it till be dad who was supposably here in my house we calls from the walkie talkie and says to open the door. And an hour or two earlier he said he would call when he got home.(my dad is a owner of a trucking company and goes the many other states.) So my sister goes and opens the fornt door and just walks away not noticing my dad was hiding on the other side of the door. So he grabs my sister and picks her up in the air. And the common thing anyone would do is start screaming when you don't know who is picking you up. And then came this long, loud laugh. Once I heard it I knew who it was. So we had ten days to go till our vacation was over so we took the most of it. We went to Taxco with my dad the next day right away. We took two buses to get there and two back, all first class! (where they give you cookies and a juice!!!:)) We went to the plaza for eight straight hours just walking arounding around looking at everyone and everything. There was so much jewelery it was like heaven. And then in the plaza I bought this HUGE cup of ice cream. After that it took me awhile to finish the ice cream so I just looked around at everything. By the time in this point of the summer I looked and talked like all the people in Mexico. I over heard a group of british girls (our age) talking in english. They were complaining on how nobody from Mexico would talk to them unless they wanted them to buy something from them. So I decided that I would talk to them. The minute after I introduced myself they gave me the nastiest est look!!! I was just trying to be friendly I said really loud to my self and then they gave me a nastier look! I was speaking english to them at that piont. So then I went and bought some more ice cream and spent more of my money on jewelery. The next morning it was my moms' forty-two year birthday, so we left the hotel early and arrived at my grandparents house around noon. To find the house locked and no one home. Now my grandparents never go anywhere enless it very important. Once they got back after an hour we helped prepare for my mom's not so secret birthday party. At night we had cake, ice cream, tostadas and a whole bunch of great food. When the cake had candles on it and my mom had blown them all my dad and grandpa pushed my mom's face right into the cake. I had the camera at that time and took three beatiful pictures my mom doesn't know were taken with cake all over her face. And then surely but slowy came the day that we had to leave. It was sad leaving all my cousins behind and grandparents. But I know I'll see them soon some day!
