update #25 - spring break

days count: 270 days left: 58

Friday last week we had minimum day, but since we had a track meet at McFarland we didn't get home before like 8 PM. The meet was pretty big and the track we ran on was so nice.
During the actual break, we mostly stayed home or went on a little road trip to Palmdale.




There's a big field with poppies and we took pictures. It was a lot of fun. After that we just kept going, we went to Santa Clarita or somewhere like that, we don't know for sure. 

The rest of the week we went to Bakersfield or did stuff at home, then on Friday we went to Santa Monica and Venice beach, which was a big wish of mine since a long time, and it was freaking awesome. 


It was a lot of fun and there's so much to see, there's a lot of art and weird people, especially at Venice. 
On Santa Monica pier there's a little fair, which seemed pretty cool. We went there during the day, but I bet its even better at night. We saw the Western end of route 66, which is the longest highway in the United states. It is about 2448 Miles long, which is 3939.6 km.



In downtown Santa Monica there's a lot of little stores, cafe's and all that. There's a really cool thrift store and a German bakery or something.

We also took the dog with us, we planned on going to the beach and swim. We thought that we could take fish into the ocean with us but as we found out we weren't allowed to, which really sucked. So Lucy and I just went by ourselves, and it was really cold, like about 16 degrees celcius.





It was my absolute favorite trip so far and I highly recommend going there. I'm so glad that I got that chance. It was something special to do and its unique. There's a Freakshow and artists and a lot of different cultural things and foods. 
Tomorrow we have the last day off until Summer break, which means I have 7 weeks of school left and one week of Summer break here. Pretty excited for this last part.
I hope you guys are having a Happy Easter.
