Another Book
The Candy Shop War by Brandon Mull.It was one of the best books I have EVER read. Which is pretty good. Well, anyway, it's about these kids that have a secret club called the Blue Falcons. They go to this candy shop, do the owner of the candy shop some sweeping, and polishing, and all that. After school, the owner gives them candy. No big deal right? But after they get the candy, they go to their hideout and test the candy. The moment you put it into your mouth, you felt lighter. Nate (the kid with the blond hair) jumped, and jumped higher than you can on the moon. Yes, it's that cool. READ IT!!! To find out other candies that they get. There's a TON more by the way.READ IT!!!!
CELEBRATION!!!!!

South Africa Part 4
IN Johannesburg: The big building at the bottom is a really nice part of the airport. And big. The huge soccer ball was hanging from the ceiling, because of course, they are hosting the World Cup this year so every part of South Africa is pumped. The one with two people opening the door is at Duke's Court, where my grandparents live. That's them in the picture by the way. Then that's me in the striped shirt and Sam in the pink fleece. At Duke's Court by "the lift". Elevators are lifts there. Then, there's an outside view of Duke's Court. A LOT of parts to come!!!
South Africa Part 3
We're back, so I had to blog, I guess. This is going to take about three pages of blogger so get comfy!!! First, let me talk about the plane ride. It was HORRIBLE!!! My sister threw up on the ride there. But luckily, she didn't get sick on the way back despite the turbulence in the air. First, we went to Washington,D.C. and that's when we had the big layover. 4 hours, mind you. That's where we went wrong. We ate there. I had pizza and 1/2 of a Ben & Jerry's milkshake. Samantha had a whole Ben and Jerry's Phish Food and Fudrucker's. Then we had to get on the stupid plane. They gave us eye pads, pillow, blanket, toothbrush, toothpaste, and socks (I still haven't figured that one out yet). Then after 17 hours we were in...JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA. It was worth the torture, trust me.
