The water park

68-76 degrees.
On Wednesday, I went swimming at a nearby aquatic center, You might be thinking why I didn't go to the beach. Well, the beaches here in CA are not warm, there are FREEZING cold. Anyway, I didn't go ice skating, it was one of my days off. At the aquatic center there are two large water slides that you could go down, one of them was a tube, the other was an open one. My cousin also went. She is the same age as me.

And Today, I went skating at around 1:30ish. You wouldn't believe it but I landed my Axel. I am so proud of myself! And I hardly even practiced it!I also competed with my cousin at 'shot the duck'.(a sit-spin exercise were you skate in a sitting position with your leg out in front you). And earlier, I went on a run with my mom's friends dog, Shady, a German Shepard. By the way, Shady doesn't let you walk, only run, so I hardly get a chance to catch my breath.But it's great exercise.

    Have fun skating!
