When we went to the Grand Canyon we didn't take a tour but we saw a lot of the views. A lot of the views were close to the edge. My mom kept getting scared even though I wasn't going anywhere near the edge. We saw some people sitting on the edge with no railings. The view was great and it was a long way down. We went to the vistitors center but didn't stay long because it was closing soon.We only stayed for 2 hours and left. That's about all we did at The Grand Canyon.
Started this blog when I was 11 years old when my mom decided to homeschool me after I graduated 5th grade.

Hoover Dam
When we went to Hoover Dame we went on a our that took us inside the dam. The tour was very short and before the tour we saw a video talking about how the dam was created. In the tour we got split up from the people without wristbands who only got a little bit of the tour(we had wristbands).We went on with our tour and saw the stairway to heaven staircase it was really long. That's when we turned around and got cramped in the elevator the same way we did to get to that area in the dam. It was kinda boring because we were just taking photos inside the dam. After the tour we saw another thing that was audio of the dam and the things would light up the places they were talking about. Thats about a wrap of all the things we did in Hoover Dam.

Our Trip to Yosemite
When we went to Yosemite we took the Grand Tour (on a bus) a 8 hour tour. We saw many different sights like Glacier Point. It took so long from the start to get to Glacier Point, but the tour guide talked about the other things you could see on the way. half way through our tour we had a lunch break, you needed a ticket to get lunch, the food they served was good. I slept on the bus for a long time because it took a long time to get to one place we would stop at. While we were going back I was glad that we could go to our hotel and rest. While we were going down the mountain to our hotel I got sick. That's about everything that happened in our round trip to Yosemite.

Our Death Valley Adventure
Today we went to the Death Valley National Park. To get there we went through the Mohave Desert. It got up to temperatures of up to 105 - 120 during the whole trip. There were many different sights to take pictures on the mountains and on the ground. We also went to Randsburg the Ghost Town of tourist attraction we had lunch there. There were lots of different towns we passed along the way. Once we got to Death Valley National Park we started taking more photos and videos. I got sick halfway through Death Valley while going down the steep hills.

Tennis tournaments
I went to my friend Vince Marc TaboTabo's tennis tournament. It was a USTA Northern California tournament. I was the photographer I took all the photos of them. Vince is on a team called the Avengers. They were able to make it to the finals but lost. Even though they lost they joked around even when I was taking pictures of them with their medals. The tennis matches were close and there was a 50% chance that we could've won. Every photo I took I had to time just to make sure it was perfect. There were some pictures that ended up looking funny. Almost everyone's family members were there to congratulate them even though they lost because they still made it to the finals. It was fun getting to go to the tournaments and I hope I go again.

Steve Jobs' House
We went and saw Steve Jobs' House. We got to see the garage he worked in. We got to see his neighbor hood. It was amazing to see where the famous entrepreneur worked at when he made his first apple product. It looked like a normal house and blended in perfectly. Over all I think it was a great experience even though it was a short experience.
Bucks Wood Side
We went to Buck's Wood Side and learned some things about the place. Many entrepreneurs went there. It had many different scupltures and paintings that were very artistic. The food there was really good. There were a lot of people coming in and out of the place, every time I looked out the window there was someone coming to eat. It took a little wait to get your food, because of all the customers being served, but the service was still great.
