Skating in the Dark

One day, Diane was just skating in the morning like usual. BLINK went the lights in the rink. BLINK BLINK BLINK OFF! It was so cool "skating in the dark". There were only emergency lights on. They were like spotlights. "It's just totally cool, 'skating in the dark', I don't even know how to describe it," Diane told Gingerbread Weekly News. "Too bad the employees told us to get off in 30 minutes."

River Rafting

On Sunday we went rafting at the American River in Sacramento. We had a group of 27 friends. They split us into three groups of nine. I went with Sara's family (3 people), Virginia's family (2 people), and my family (4 people). We were the second boat. Our guide was named Andrew, same name as my brother. All the boats stayed together. In the morning (or the first two hours) there were only Classes 1 and 2 waves. The higher the class number, the bigger the wave. It was pretty relaxing. We stopped at this place with tables and chairs to eat lunch. We had chips, fruit, sandwiches, and cookies for lunch. After lunch, we climbed aboard the wet boat and got into our soaking life jackets. The boats started splashing water at each other and we got even more wet. I was shivering. The guide told us that when we see the lollipop tree the first time, it means that Class 3 waves will come in 10 to 15 minutes. When you see the lollipop tree the second time, it means Class 3's are around the corner. The afternoon was pretty rough and more fun. Some waves even went over our heads! I had tons of fun unlike some people.....
