Vacation Stories Continued...

Stratford didn't bring the end of vacation. We spent the next day meeting up with my parent's old friends. It was fun. They had kids my age but we didn't really talk that much. I think I hold myself in high standards sometimes, not that i'm vain but I feel like if i'm a guest at your house you should come talk to me not the other way around. Does that make sense? Maybe it's because they were boys and african people still have an old fashioned mindset about different genders together. I don't know anyways we did that and then went off to niagra falls which was just breathtakingly beautiful. It's one of those things you see on T.V. but actually being there and feeling the mist all around you, and seeng an endless amount of water coming at such a high powered speed was really cool. I enjoyed it and tried to take as many awesome pictures as I could. I think i'll try and post some later.

After Niagra falls we just hung out around hte house and then went to Danders square again because thats what canadian people do every night from what I could tell. Toronto wass a very diverse city. There were all kinds of people there from all over the world, but very few actual canadians which I found weird. I didn't really hear any difference in the way they speak over there and we speak here except for the occasional eh? . But those were only in stratford, people in toronto didn't even say eh? that much. I loved their living stype. It was rare to see houses. Seeing as they have so many people in such a small area most people live in these gigantic apartment buildings. They are as big as skyscrappers and you can fit an unbelievable number of people in them.

Following Canada we stoped by Chicago for a day and a half. We wanted to fit in as many things as possible. We started in Willis Tower and went up to the sky deck which used to be the tallest building in the world before dubai build one like double the size. It was really cool up there and they have this awesome glass case type thing that sticks out of the building and you get to step on glass right about downtown chicago. It's not for those scared of heights. After sky deck we went to millenium park and walked around that area. Then we went to Taste of Chicago which was like this long street where all the restaurants in chicago sold food for a week. And you buy tickets to purchase things and get lots of free stuff. Then last but not least we walked ot the navy pier and saw all the fancy people and their yachts. We went on the ferris wheel and I rode a taxi for the very first time. It was cool.

The next day we said goodbye to Chicago by going into the Aquarium which has every kind of fish from every place you could ever imagine. I saw real live penguins and found out that the beluga as in the thing from the show baby beluga is a real animal!! I really enjoyed it there, it's a nice place. We got to watch a shortened version of Happy Feet in 4D which is where you can "feel" the movie too. Like for all the snow scenes we were surrounded my bubbles and if mumba got poked then we got poked in the back too. and for happy feet this thing under our chairs swished all around. It was cool. We also saw the regular animal show where they did tricks and stuff. I salute anyone who's brave enough to work with those animals. It looks scary. We ended in the Indian part of chicago where I got a henna tattoo and ate at this good restaurant. I loved both chicaco and canada. It's definatley not something i'm going to forget any time soon.
