AHW

At the end of every year, we go somewhere special for Girl Scouts. This year we went to the three Cs in Ohio. Columbus, Cincinnati, and Cleveland. We all got on this big bus very early in the morning. It was still dark outside.  My friend and I sat way in the back so we could be as loud as we wanted to. It was about a 2 hour drive, and as soon as we got to Ohio  the first thing we did was go on a tour of the Underground Railroad. It was so cool to see the actual places the slaves went. We watched a movie that was supposed to be scary but it really wasn't. We went to go see famous quilts and my friends little sister followed us. 

Once the tour was over, we went to Kings Isand which is kind of like Cedar Point and Michigan Adventure. It sucked that we only had three hours to go on rides but I made the best of it. The first ride I went on was really big and it went around the whole park. It was like a race. There was a blue team and a red team. My friend and I were on the red team. Which ever roller coaster gets there first wins and my team won. After we went on another ride that took really really high and spun you around then brought you down. All of the other rides were ok but I have been on better ones. 

After kings island we got on the bus and went to the hotel. When we got to the room my friend and I were really hungry so we decided to go the Red Lobster next door. I had never been to red lobster before so I was exited to try it. When I finally decided what I was going to eat, I picked a baked potato, steak and crab. I was so full I just decided to get in the bed and sleep.

 In the morning my friend and I got up really early and went to breakfast. After we are we hopped on the bus and headed to Columbus. In Columbus, we went to a science museum and it had so many cool things there. We went on this one ride thing where it feels like a roller coaster but you are really on this car like thing that moves up and down and side to side. We saw this girl that was on a bicycle on a rope and she looked really scared. I think she was crying. We were so bored out of our minds until I found out there was an aquarium center! I rushed over and my friend noticed a real submarine. It was really cool and old. 

After the museum we went to a new hotel and stayed up all night. In the morning we skipped breakfast and got on the bus. We were headed to a different type of museum. The rock and roll hall of fame! They had a whole floor for Michael Jackson. We even got to see his signature. We went to look at this astronaut section and it was amazing! I got to "try" on a real space suit. There was this really cool water fountain and when you stick you hand through it it forms a bubble around it. When it was time to leave the museum I was kind of bummed because it was our last place. When I got on the bus I got a pillow and fell asleep. When I woke up I was in Michigan!! 

I has the best and longest 3 day trip ever!!!!!!!


Look at the pics below to see the fun!!

AHW

As you probably know I am a Girl Scout. I used to be a Junior but I just bridged so now I am a cadette. Bridging is kind of like going to the next grade. At my "Bridging Ceremony” we were in a church and my mom and dad came. We had program's  that had the schedule and all the biographies of all the Girl Scouts inside. My troop leader called us up one by one and asked us questions. When it was my turn my heart was trembling in my hands were shaking. My heart raced so fast that I thought it was going to burst out of my chest! I successfully answered all of the questions to my surprise. As I sat down I could feel a smile coming. After the ceremony was over, it was time for food. All the bridging Girl Scouts went to a private room where we cut the cake. It was the most beautiful cake I ever saw! It had all the Girl Scouts names on it including mine. I asked my troop leader how much did the cake cost and she said $150. I think it was worth the money. I am so ready for cadettes next year!🎽🍪
