On our way to Death Valley we decided to stop by Randsburg Ghost Town. We took some pictures, visit the musuem, and to eat lunch. We found a parking space among some other tourists cars.
First, we decided to visit the museum and to learn more about the ghost town. In the museum they had many of the minerals they would find in the mines.
Randsburg was discovered in 1895, its founders were John Shingleton, Charlie Burcham, and F.M Mooers. They originally called it The Rand after the South African mining district, then it became Rand Camp, then Randsburg.
We ate lunch there and got some drinks to take with us on the car trip. This is the first ghost town I've been to and I really enjoy this trip. I really hope people touring should visit this place. I also recommend you eat there I really recommend their food.
Started this blog when I was 11 years old when my mom decided to homeschool me after I graduated 5th grade.

The Great Wall Of China, February 14, 2015
This is a summary of our trip to the Great Wall of China.
The time for our tour bus to arrive was really early in the morning it was good that we woke up earlier than that so we didn't have to rush when getting ourselves ready.
We ate breakfast and we waited a little bit longer for our tour bus, I was really tired.
We got on the tour bus and I took a nap because the bus trip was more than an hour how long. When I woke up we were already there at the Mutianyu Great Wall.
Our tour guide said that there are two ways to go one of the ways are walking up and taking the slide down, the other way is by cable car up to tower 12. We took the cable car way up.
The great wall was made to be a border to protect the Chinese Empire from raids. They built it not straight but up and down the mountains and slopes, making it hard for us to walk without needing to breath after few minutes of walking on many stairs, to me it seemed almost like a dragon with its zig zag pattern. We were able to get some really good photos of the view. I was able to make it to post 22 but my mom got half way up before we had to walk back to eat lunch and get on the bus.
I recommend before you go there to train by jogging long distances so you don't have to catch your breath every dozen of stars. I also recomend having someone with you to encourage you on the long walk. I think the Great Wall is a great place to visit with friends or family but hard to walk on with its steep stairs.

Disneyland and California Adventure Trip September 2014
When we were at Disneyland we went on lots of rides , took pictures with some of the Disney characters and had a lot of fun.
First we decided to go to the ride Matterhorn Mountain it was fast, but even though it was a water ride we didn't get wet.
We went to Its a Small World ride after. Then we went to Star Tours after star tours we went to Space Mountain, it was fast but not scary.
We ate lunch and then we went to Splash Mountain where we got a little bit wet. Then we went to Toon Town to take pictures with the characters(we didn't get to take a picture with Mickey because of the hour wait he had). The last thing we went on for the day was the train back to the main area to watch the parade.
The next day we went to the Bug Life first. Then the California Sceamin rollercoaster my favorite ride for the day. Then we watched the Aladin Show. After that the Muppet 3d Test Lab to the Disney Junior Live Show.
Then we went to cars land went down Grizzly River where I got wet the most. We watched the Disney Pixar Parade after that we went to the Twighlight Zone Tower Of Terror I got scared most on this ride.
Then we saw Turtle Talk and World Of Colors. There was a lot of people at the Disney Parade at 8:00pm they were all lined up if we haven't lined up early we would've not gotten a spot. The amount of people at World of color was worse, we could barley find a spot since we couldn't go in early because we had to wait for my moms friend. The food there at Disney land was great and it stuffs you. That was everything we did at Disneyland and California Adventure.

My Visit To The Taj Mahal , January 2015
This is my review of the Taj Mahal when we visited India.
The Taj Mahal may seem like a Palace at first sight but when you take a tour or read about it it's really just a tomb for a king's favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal. This is one of the most beautiful Seven Wonders Of The World, and to me since I haven't been to all of them it's the most beautiful.
On our tour tour inside we saw some of the many gems inside, we didn't get to see at night or to see it glow because we visited in the morning and had more museums to get to. It was nice at the Taj Mahal and to couples probably romantic to them, the story about the king who loved his wife so much that he created a tomb equivalent to the size of a palace.
After awhile I got tired of all the picture taking, because of the sun, I always had to squint. We went to many tombs on our visit but none to match up with the scale of the Taj Mahal.Overall I say it's a good place to visit for travelers and it's one of the Seven Wonders Of The World.
