Paul, Ella, my mum, grandparents and I went to Central park before mum and Paul’s wedding day.  Did you know that Central Park  has 21 playgrounds?  Ella and I saw heaps of squirrels and birds.  When we were walking around we saw a big merry go round so I went on with my sister and mum.  After that we walked around some more and looked were my mum was getting married to Paul.  We found two places near each other.  So then we walked home after that

Paul and I went out so I could get some new soccer boots.  We went in this really cool sports store in Soho. It had everything in sports, it was three stories.  It had soccer boots, baseball stuff, racing bikes, scooters, roller skates, ice skates, snowboards and ski’s.  Everything in sports you could think of was there.

Pearl Jam were playing at Madison Square Garden so Paul and I went to see them play. Before the concert Paul and I went to the Houndstooth pub and talked to a few people we knew who he’d met at Pearl Jam concerts in Australia and Los Angeles.

While waiting for Pearl Jam to come on I got a foot long hot dog and a diet coke.  The hot dog was delicious.  When we were getting our food and drinks they came on and started to play their first song.  So we got the food and ran to our seats, we missed most of the first song though, Corduroy.  At the concert Pearl jam played 34 songs over three hours.  During some songs everybody was jumping up and down and you could feel the stadium rocking  around, it felt like an earth quake pretty much.

My day at Six Flags to Magic Mountain.  Magic mountain is a rollercoaster theme park that is the most awesome place you could go to if you love high speed and really loopy rollercoaster’s.  So this was my day there.

The first rollercoaster I went on was Tatsu.  On this rollercoaster it feels like you’re flying like a bird doing twists and turns all the way around until you get to the massive loop.  The loop go’s  around going down so it feels like you’re about to fall out.  Tatsu is scary the first time but then on the second and others you laugh.

The Viper.  The Viper used to be the fastest rollercoaster in the world.  It went up to 110km/h. It had three loops a twist turn and normal turns.  The Viper was really cool with its speed and loops, when you went really  fast your head got pinned back against the seat.

Riddlers Revenge.  Riddlers revenge was a really loopy coaster, and instead of sitting you stand up in the carriage.  This coaster was scary with all the loops and twists because it feels like you’re about to fall out of your seat.  The loops are big long ones that feels really long when you go on the first time.
