I wanted you to know that I love the way you laugh

Dearest Blog,
Um, well, I was going to post my entire trip experience to you, my lovely blog, but I just tried and had three huge paragraphs and hadn't even gotten past the first night. So, here are the best parts: I was super lucky and got to stay with Jake and Anika's host parents (The Reeves, AKA Canadian's parents) in their camper, so it was Mr. and Mrs. Reeves, Mike Anderson, Jake, Michal, Freddie, Anika, Emily, and I. They were sooooo nice and I was so happy. Then Saturday morning I got up and Mrs. Reeves and Jake were up so Jake and I went kayaking out around this little island and then to the other site with the rest of the kids, Mrs. Beasel's, and got breakfast (we had super good timing). Then we went back, against the current, which was pretty tough for me. Later, we all went to Wal-Mart, Freddie and I had forgotten our tooth brushes and everyone bought super cheap T-shirts with the American Flag on them for 1$ and we got.....what else, SPORTS EQUIPMENT. By the way, they pretty much love to shop here because everything is WAY cheaper, it is ridiculous!
We fit four teenage boys, Anika and I into Mike’s car a bunch of times... and went to the beach Saturday but after about half an hour we had to get out because it was starting to storm. We played soccer and Frisbee a ton and threw the football and listened to music. Sunday, we went to the beach again and I had my relationship analyzed with fortune telling cards by Lucie, she is from Prague and is a Goth type kid. On the way home yesterday, we went to the mall and Freddie and I got lost when we were trying to find a phone for him to call home with and I helped Michal pick out a T-shirt, which was pretty funny and enjoyable because Jeff never does the whole “so what do you think” thing. By the end of the weekend I had started to develop an accent! It was super fun and I am very happy I went, thanks to encouragement from my super sweet, awesome friends. ANDDDDDDD, I now am the sole driver of my car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (hey Mo, I wonder if Galitsky could count those?)
See you all tomorrow.
Much love,
