Welcome at Ciska's Travel Corner
Hello everybody, on this page I'll show you all the places I've been already for vacation.
America
Together with my parents I went on vacation to America on Friday, September 13. We first went to Arlington, near Dallas.
My mother used to go to school there and now there was a reunion of her class. We stayed with Dean, a former classmate of her. While my parents
were at the reunion, I stayed with the mother of Dean and I played with his niece Megan. That was very nice, although we couldn't
understand each other.
Me in the pool with Mary and Alex in Allen, TX
We also went to another former classmate of my mother and I was allowed to play in the pool in their backyard. From Dallas we went to San
Francisco. There we made a boat trip and then I saw a lot of sea lions and also a beautiful large bridge. We also went to see an old,
former prison. In a town called Monterey we visited a large aquarium and I was allowed to touch a number of sea animals there. I liked
that very much. From San Francisco we travelled around with an RV, just like we did in Canada. Only now I had my own bed, a very large
one above the cabin.
Bear in Sequoia NP
We also went to visit a number of parks. In one of them we saw a bear and I wanted to go to touch it. But my mother didn't allow me to do
that, I didn't like that as I really wanted to approach the bear to have a better look. At the Grand Canyon we went on a train ride.
During the trip the train was robbed, but what worried me the most were the horses of the robbers. The horses had to stay outside of
the train while the train moved on. Our trip ended in Las Vegas, a city with a lot of flashing lights. What I really liked in Las Vegas
was a large pool with a lot of fountains, and I do like fountains a lot. There was also a garden with a lot of birds like flamingos,
ducks and penguins. At another hotel there were two pirate ships. They shot at each other with a lot of fire and smoke. In the end one of
the ships even went down. In the hotel that we stayed in there was a circus and I enjoyed it very much. From Las Vegas we flew back home.
Before we went on holiday my parents gave me my own photo camera so I've made some photos myself.
