The Bishops and Their Bucket

  Hi guys so after we finished our safari’s, our group got together and went back to the main hotel where we went to bed. The next day we went to the airport. We took a quick flight to stone town and then drove for a long time. When we got to the address of our airbnb, it was in the middle of a road with no houses! We were really confused and then we realized we had been scammed!!! So we got back into the car and looked for a hotel. Lucky for us we had all day to look because at the time it was only 9 am. Finally we got to a really pretty hotel. So we went in and they gave us a snack while we waited for a room. Once we got all settled in, we went to the pool that was on the roof!!! After swimming for a bit we had dinner and then went to bed. That night I dreamed that I was a gingerbread man!! The next morning we got up early and decided to go for a walk around the city. So stone town is full of lots of people and stray cats. There are LOTS of shops with cool jewelry. I ended up buy...

  Blog   We climbed Mt Kilimanjaro for 7 days. They were some of the worst days ever but that’s fine. The first day went really fast and it was actually kind of fun. We only hiked for about 4 hours. We slept in the rain forest. Sara started puking all night but she tried to stay strong. The next day we hiked for 12 hours straight. It was one of the worst days of my life. It was just uphill for hours. At the camp Sara was so done because she was sick and she hadn’t eaten anything for a while cause she kept puking. After we woke up the next morning Sara was so done with everyone so her and dad left with a car that came to the camp to pick her up. I had the choice to either leave or keep going. I chose to keep going with mom and    Katlyn and Roger but honestly it didn’t seem like the right chose while I was climbing that day. We kept going through the days and sleeping at camp. We were pretty tired and I kept getting sicker and sicker until I started puking. Katlyn and...

  Zanzibar —Sara   The day after we went on the horse ride, we decided to go on a snorkel trip. we got everyone together and walked to the boat and the captain got in and started driving. After around 40 minutes of boating, we finally got to this beautiful place where the water was light blue and not too cold. We all put our snorkels on, but then I decided that I don’t want a snorkel on mine so I jumped into the water without it. There was a huge and beautiful coral reef with lots and lots of cool fish. After about 3 hours we got back into the boat and went home. We spent the rest of the day swimming and then we ate at a yummy restaurant where we had fresh seafood caught that day and then went to bed. The next day we slept in and had a lazy morning. But then we decided to go and snorkel again. So we went snorkelling in a new place, the boat ride there was much longer! When we finally got there to our surprise it was even more pretty than last time!!!! So there was soooo many f...

 Zanzibar - Sofie  After we took the flight to Zanzibar we took a shuttle to our hotel. I was feeling a little sick but I got over it. The hotel was full of flowers and our rooms were big. There was a bunch of baby puppies running around. My favourite is a little black one named Gerbil and a little tan one named Lincoln. My friend Yvonne named them for me. We slept well even though it was very hot. The next day we woke up early because Sara and mom went to go ride horses on the beach. Dad and I stayed at the hotel and ate the breakfast they provided. Then we went to walk on the beach. The water is a beautiful turquoise colour and the sand is white. We went swimming for a long time. We were starving after so we went to go eat at a restaurant on the beach. We ate a lot of food. After that we swam again and relaxed. The next day we woke up early again and Sara, mom and dad went to go swim but I stayed back. After they got back we ate breakfast and mom signed us up to go snorkelli...

  Sara—— Egypt .. Our home in Egypt is beautiful! When we got to the    airbnb, there was some cats that lived there, they were very cute and    we gave them some food and they became our friends. On the first day we went to the pyramids of Giza !! They were huge. We walked around for a bit and then we got on some camels and rode around and took pictures. My camel was nice but Rogers camel was silly - he kept nipping the other camels and was trying to make them angry . After we rode camels, we went inside a small pyramid it was really cool! We took a really steep ladder to get in and it was really warm inside!! After that we had some tea and relaxed. After that we took a quick drive to the other side of the pyramid and took lots of pictures. After that we went back to our bnb and had dinner and relaxed for a bit. Then at 8 pm we went on a    3 hour boat on the Nile river. We had a yummy dinner and dessert and then there was some music, a belly dancer a...

Sofie:  On Monday we took a very long flight to Frankfurt Germany. Germany was full of people. We had a five hour layover so we went to the air Canada lounge to have a shower and to eat something. Then we took another 4 hour flight to Cairo. It was not very fun. We got a bus to take us to our air bnb where we planned what to do the next day and to finally get some sleep. The air bnb is fancy and has a pretty view of the pyramids. The sun came up over the desert and it was very pretty. Sara: So yesterday we got on a plane that was 10 hours long to Germany !!! So on the plane I slept, watched movies and read books it was pretty fun. So when we got off the plane it was morning time! So we had a 5 hour layover in Germany and we walked around looking for some where to sit. Finally we sat down a an air Canada longe and I slept a bit and ate some food so now we’re about to get on a plane to Egypt!!!! I’ll keep you guys posted- sara  Germany in depth by Sara.
