How did i manage to forget that?

Possibly one of the biggest things that happened on the holiday in a way i forgot. on my birthday we found that my mum and dads wallets were stolen. we reckon that someone had come into our house while we wer in the pool and taken them. the italien woman that owned the house wouldnt believe it though so she drove us to the local shop that we'd been to in the morning to look for my dads wallet and rang up the restaurant that we had been to the previous night to ask if they had my mums purse. they said they did have it so we drove all the way there and it wasnt it was a bag!
any way i found it all slightly amusing and liked imagining catching a robber in the house cos every body likes to think of fighting bad guys dont they. its natural.




we had the annual street party today, as equally boring as usual. but there was even less people to talk to this time. the only person even close to my age was eve and shes 11 i think and dont particulary like her any way.
PS it was freeeeeeeeezing. got to see baby joseph though. soooooo cute!

Perugia

Before heading to perugia my dad had to pick up the hire car. So he went off while me and my mum stayed at the hotel. On his way their he got on the bus without a ticket and nearly got arrested! then it took him 2 hours + to get the car. So we were getting worried back at the hotel and eventually got the receptionist to call the company to ask after him, she just put down the phone and he walked through the door. Shame on you Europcar.
After many hours of driving on terrible roads we finally arrived at the house at 9 oclock or something.

That is a snake skin that I found in a flourbed near the pool! We never saw a snake though. :(



We also went to a festival, market, Assissi on my 14th birthday and Perugia.

Arrivederci Roma, Hello England!

I actually came back from Rome on Thursday but thats not the point. As you may have guessed I went to Italy. First we went to Pisa for a night, then to a house near Perugia for a week, then to a hotel in Rome. It was awsome!

First heres some frome Pisa: Thats me by the gates to the square in Pisa where the tower is.
Thats some random building in Pisa that looked quite nice


Thats the leaning tower on the first night.

Thats little people drinking out of a wolf- its got something to do with this Romulus and Reamus legend.



Thats one picture of some really awsome graffiti near the hotel.

Me at the top of the tower. My mum was really scared so she didnt go right to the top she was on the floor down, she wasnt the only one though.

Thats me doing the pose trying to hold the tower up. I found it quite embarrassing to do but if you look in the background theres loads of other people doing it. Its funny.

And these are two pictures of a cathedral or something and a dome thing that were in the square with the tower.

I want to watch THE LITTLE MERMAID!

Maddy came round yesterday after she had had her hair cut. It is a majorly big change. Im getting mine cut today and hopefully i wont end up looking like her cos that just wont be fair and would probably mean we're doomed to be called twins for the rest of our lives! We went up to yeadons to look at the fit guy the works there and when we got there we couldnt see him so we looked at some seeds and paint cards then on the way out he was by the door you should have seen our faces. :D <---accurate image of them
I watched spiderwick chronicles the other night and was suprisingly really good and really scary for a childrens film in my opinion.
Was planning on watching the little mermaid today cos i couldnt watch yesterday cos the video player wasnt plugged in so i asked my dad to sort and he hasnt done. Apparently he had to tune it and stuff and he was all stress so my mum let him off.

PS I have decided on the singstars Im going to get- summer party, R&B (which does have lots of good songs on it so ive been won over) and singalong with disney (which is only £5 but it doesnt have part of that world on it!)
Look them up you should.

PS had a weird dream.

Wow I'm tired

Came back from France with guides this morning. In a way i hadnt had proper sleep since yesterday cos we set off for disney land at 9am and didnt stop properly afterwards we just drove to the ferry which we got on at 3am saturday. So yeah im very tired. But it was the most amazing camp ever! I had sooooooooooooo much fun. Theres kinda too much to write so ill just mention a few things- and i cant put pics on cos i just used a disposable camara but annie might put some of hers on facebook.
Anyway we did kayaking which was fun but the mud on the ground was disgusting.
In raft building we played a game where 6 people had to stand up (i was one of them) and do head shoulders knees and toes each time replacing things with a jump! our team won though! Then at the end we started falling and apparently sarah tried to pull leah down so leah grabbed onto annie who pushed her off so leah landed on one of the WOODEN poles and BROKE IT!!!! It was rather amusing- the first time it ever happened.
There was loads of other fun activities but i cant be bothered to write about them.
On the last night there was a talent show which was sooooooooooooooo funny, the best act was the one that 3 acorn staff did which simply involved 2 of them just being in shorts covered in mud (one of them was really fit by the way) and smushing banana on them selves and eating it. It was sooooooooooooooooooo gross and soooooooooooooo funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Disney land was amazing too i went on thunder mountain twice, Indiana Jones twice (and i banged my knee getting off it so now ive got a huge bruise), space mountain twice, pirates of the Caribbean, haunted mansion (which broke down when we were on it!) the teacups, its a small world and the carousel.
And we sang a helll of a lot of songs, especially ones about bananas. When the haunted mansion was broken down we were singing it was funny.


Over all it was the most amazing camp EVER! Im soooooooo glad I went.
