Winter Weekend Adventure

Oi!
On Friday, I went to Queensbury. The Glens Falls Rotary Club was hosting a Winter Weekend Adventure! There were sixteen students, including me. I was in a room with two other girls, Ana, from Mexico, and Melissa, who is going to Brazil. We had pizza and then we went to our hotel and had a pool party! It was really fun! The next morning we got on a bus and went to Lake Placid. We looked at many different Olympic venues, including the Oval and the Ski Jumps! We went to the top of the tallest ski jump!

Then Keith, who is going to France, Yoshi, who is from Japan, Melissa, Jasmin, who is from Denmark and I went dog sledding!

After dog sledding, we got back on the bus and headed to the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival. The theme this year was Space Alien Invasion. It had several spaceships made out of ice!

Then we got back on the bus and headed back to Queensbury. After we had dinner we had ice cream by the pool and another pool party! We all stayed up really late but we had a lot of fun!

Everyone!
Today we woke up late and went to the Hyde Museum and took a tour! All in all it was an awesome weekend! I was sorry to have to leave but now I am really looking forward to my exchange year!
