And then we went to this awesome safari park! I got to pet a baby lion!! :D Her name was Bella and I saw a White Tiger, Bengal Tiger, Serval, lots of goats, lots of deer, (all running around the grounds mind you they were all small deer and goats) lynx's, and I got to pet ferrets, possoms, a racoon!! And a skunk named Daisy :D
The racoon was HILARIOUS!!! LOL!! That thing was so feisty, her name was Luna. And I also got to pet a fox named Todd. (figures from "Fox and the hound" psh)
It was soooooo fun!! : )
The racoon was da bomb, that racoon kept running up the trainers legs lol.
And then I also got to pet a wallabee named Jack.
Oh and a white skunk that was really fat and lathargic haha. The skunk was funny too, well and now I'm home :)

August 7, 2009. "SUMMER FUN!!!"

Hey all, this is the.....8th post of my actual vacation so far. I hope your all still enjoying it. : D
Lets see, today we drove for quite a bit, I sat in the car writing on my computer until my battery died haha. And then finally we made it to our hotel and we have this GORGEOUS view! SO PRETTY! Its overlooking the ocean and it has such a pretty sunset : )
Its still going right now actually, or...maybe its already set the sky is just light blue...not sure.
I can't see the sun out the window where I'm sitting. : /
Anyways, the hotel is cute : ) Nothing really went on today, we went to this small little spot where you can go on dune rides but it has go carts AND boat bumpers! (bumper cars but in water haha)
THE GO CARTS WERE DA BOMB!!! >: D
I'm a speedy dare devil on a go cart track HAHA!! >: ) Mom says I ain't getting my license ever with me driving like that LOL!! It was SO FUN! I lapped everyone lol!! Dyllan looked at me like I was nuts, I think he was a little scared because it was his first time driving something that fast.
But it was SOOOOO FUN!!!
Anyways after the go carts earlier today we drove to the hotel...so yeah...thats all for today I guess... : ) Hope you guys are still enjoying my blog : D
Night!!

August 5, 2009. "The sky is the limit"

Hey guys! : ) I thought I wasn't going to get to write today...haha.
But at least I did get too : )

Let's see; today after breakfast we walked over 3 blocks or so too the Space Needle. : D SO FUN!!!!!
We went to the VERY tippy top haha, : )
Gorgeous view! I took lots of pictures...somewhere in the 200's plus our other trip.
Anyways, lets see...after that we went on the Monorail and we went to P.F Changs China Bistro in the middle of downtown Seattle, YUMM!!
Aanndd....after that we went on an annoying adventure trying to find the Zoo...: / It was so stupid, the map gave us wrong directions unfortunately. : (
But we made it there after 20 minutes of hunting for it....the zoo was SOO FUN!! I got a big lollipop twirly stick thing with a toy monkey on it, its really small and cute. : D
And we also saw TONS of cool animals I've never seen up close before. : D! Unfortunately I didn't get to see the Snow Leapards and Wolves. But, oh well...
I got lots of pictures the animals we did see were; Tapirs, Lions, Penguins, an Ostrich, monkeys, an arangatang....and yeah. I think thats it, OH! I can't stop this blog with out telling you guys what this goofy arangatang did! LOL It's SOO FUNNY!
How it goes is we found an arangatang habitat and one of them was right by the window eating, I knelt down and snapped a picture of him as he looked straight at me. He was SO cute! : )
Then he went back to eating, and then he did this sideways glance at us like "Can't you see I'm eating humans? Ugh...go away" lol!
It was funny, and then some other kids came and we all watched him eat, eventually he looked straight at us and then he grabbed a blanket next to him and picked it up waving it a little. A boy about my age that was watching too said; "He's gonna put that on his head..."
And he did HAHA!
It was SO FUNNY! He threw it over his head and turned his back on us and EVERYONE laughed loudly lol. It was very funny! He peeked at us to see if we left yet a few times and then the kid that was about my age started making faces at him and he made faces back lol!
And then he made a nest type thing, and he completely hid himself in the hay and blanket he had haha! Too funny!
I had a great day! And then after that we went to the car, and I tried to clean my filthy feet...(Little advice; don't go walking around in a zoo with flipflops on...: / Unless you want filthy feet)
And then we went to "The old Spaghetti factory" ...I have one word for to describe it: YUMM!!
Delish spaghetti : D Of course I am a noodle lover but hey, that was the best spaghetti I've ever had haha... :)
Well this is my last night in Seattle, I'll be leaving tomorrow...unfortunately we really wanted to do this science museum...but we can't unless we want to come back later than we wanted. But oh well, it was fun. : ) I just can't wait to get home and breathe that Humboldt air...*sigh*
Ta ta for now!

August 4, 2009. "Trip down memory lane"

Hey all! : )
Today is the fourth of August, its gorgeous here in Seattle Washington. : D Finally got some sunshine thankfully : )
Lets see we didn't really do much today, but what we did do was go too the ferry dock here in Seattle and then we took a ferry across the Pugent Sound! : D It was SOO FUN! And really windy...O_O WOW! I could barely breathe! But it was so fun! : )
We made it across to Burmerton and then we went too the entrance to the naval hospital where I was born : ) We couldn't get in because daddy wasn't in the navy anymore.
But that was ok, and then we went too the first apartment I lived in with them for a few months. And then we went to where they moved in together for the first time, and then we went to the church where they got married. : D
And then we went on the ship called "The Turner Joy" it was an old navy ship that went to vietnom. Named after the captain of it. : )
Very interesting trip today....the ship wasn't something my parents saw a long time ago though lol. Anyways I have to go I hope your still enjoying my blog : )

August 3, 2009. "Seattle Washington!"

*drumroll* YAY! We made it to Seattle! : ) The big city! : D
WOW, VERY pretty : D Our hotel is right by the Space Needle like litterally 3 blocks from it! : ) The hotel isn't the best, but hey at least its a roof over our heads. : )
No pool but oh well, today we're kind of tired and a little bit snappy unfortunately. We're all a little tired from being in the car all day, and hungry...
The food is taking forever to get here, and its already 8:30!
But anyways earlier today we got a great view of Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Rainier! : ) I took pictures of both but sadly it had trees in the way. : / Oh well, the city is pretty!
I can't wait to go up to the top of the space needle, dad says that we'll have lunch their. Lets just hope tomorrow goes well, we're all exhausted...and the boys like waking up when the sun does ugh...
And there is only one whole room and one big bed and a hidabed, and then I'm going to sleep on the floor but *shruggs*.
Well hope you guys are still enjoying my blog! :D Sorry I'm making this so short, don't really have anything to write about. Anyways, hope all is well for those of you reading from back home : )

August 2, 2009. "Too much fun? not possible"

Hey all :) Today was the greatest! :D Here is what I did today;

Late morning; Ok lets see, after I got up and took some pictures by our ocean view motel, we drove too the other side of New Port and decided to go see the Undersea Gardens :) That was really cool! :D
We saw eels, a giant weird looking fish, and lots of other cool colored fish! :D I have so many pictures I think I might have to upload them onto my computer today so that I have room for the next couple of days lol.
AAnndd yeah...

Afternoon; After the undersea garden thingy, we went to have lunch at this restraunt called "Port Dock" Cute little restraunt :) I had linguini noodles with alfredo sauce and got some mushrooms in it unfortunately...sorry I'm a little picky I don't really like mushrooms. : /
Anyways! Then after that we went to have ice cream, Dyllan had an interesting adventure. He dropped his first cone, then mom bought him a second one bc he barely started the first. And then the second one he dropped again in the store! So the lady gave him one free...interesting day I say.
And then after the ice cream we went to "The wax museum" VERY cool! I got an AWESOME picture of a wolf that I'll probably put on here later, but most of my pictures will be on my facebook I might put the link to the album on here I think...depends.
And also there was a fake bigfoot too! :D Totally cool! : )
Then there was also this thing about some wanted guy since 1971 he did some sort of crime...don't really remember but yeah, it had an empty parachute bag and some clothing hanging in fake trees.
So that was pretty cool : ) And then there was some cool electric things that were quite interesting! And it had a model of Michael Jackson haha!
That was in the beginning though, it had many models of either celebs or fake myths like Frankenstine and Dracula. Oh and I almost forgot! There was a star wars section too! It had Luke, Yoda, R2 and...that monster thingy on Jabba in the last star wars movie that gets angry at R2...I don't know its name.
Annd yeah, it was scary in some parts there was this weird lookin mummy thing. And then after that we went to a Ripley's believe it or not museum!! : D
That was...freaky...but cool : )
The wax museum was cooler in my opinion though, but so far I enjoyed the dunes the most so far.
Nothing really that cool was in the ripleys museum...only kinda creepy stuff.

Evening; After all of that we still hadn't finished! Then we went to the aquarium! This I placed first in my fun things I did today! Dude my fave thing was the fishes and the jelly fish OMG they were SO cool : D
I got such awesome pictures there too! : ) There were sharks which were awesome : D I had lots of fun today!
After a busy day I came home watched Hotel For Dogs, had mac-n-cheese. And yeah...now we come to where I am now. Typing on my computer, and yeah....
Well now all I have to do is go to Seattle, and our trip will be mostly over. : / Thats unfortunate, I really don't look forward to school again blehh...
Well gotta go! Hope you enjoy my blog! :D
