Hi guys,

I can't believe summer's almost over. But I must say, my summer was pretty amazing! St. Petersburge, DC, France and I visited my grandparents countrey house a couple of times :) I was there just this week actually...It was a lot of fun. I have a good friend there, so we would meet and her friend who was visitting for 3 weeks would join us :) Mostly we talked...

The whether wasn't bad, but it rained a lot. And one time we even lost our electricity for the whole evening and night! It was scary when it first went out. But luckily it was getting late, so I just went to bed (I couldn't do anything else really) and when I woke up everything was working :]

My school starts in a week...I'm pretty excited :) I'll get to see all of my classmates and I'm hoping someone new will come :}

Hey everybody :) I'm back from France :)

We were visitting my Aunt, Uncle and two cousins who stay in a little city called Antibes for the summer :) We stayed there for about 6 days. Here is the whole story of our trip :)

We arrived in Antibes on August 6th at around 7. After we got settled we went to dinner at a nearby restaurant. My cousin is 4 so he wanted to go to the playground where we played games.

We started the next day by going to the beach (it's about a 10 min. walk). The water was pretty warm and REALLY clear. It was a lot of fun to swim in it. My brother wouldn't go in because there were jelly fish...(I didn't see any) We finally convinced him to go in :) In the evening we went to an Italian restaurant where my uncle met us (he had just come back from a business trip) The food was great.

We spent the morning at the beach on Saturday and in the evening we went to a beautiful city in the mountains nearby. Many artists live there, so there were tons of galleries with their work :) We walked around and then had some dinner. By the time we got back it was pretty late :}

Sunday, after being at the beach, we went to Cannes to go shopping. But, unfortunately, all the shops were closed! So we just walked around and then went to another city that is known for it's restaurants :) The food was exquisite and the desert was above and beyond. :D

On Monday we went to Cannes again (after the beach of course.) to go shopping. But we only had 2 hours so we only stopped at a kids store ( my brother really needed some clothes) and another store that was REALLY expensive :}

Tuesday was the only day when there were no jelly fish at all. The beach was a ton of fun that day. Later my mom and aunt went shopping and we stayed at home. They came back so late that we only had time to go to dinner. (we wanted to go to a museum or something)

We left wednsday afternoon. But we had time to go to the beach in the morning. There were SO many jelly fish!!!! I saw at least 15 of them! THat's a lot, especially since they were alive, even though the water was REALLY warm!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys :)

We're back from the beach :) it was a ton of fun :) We were five minutes away from the beach itself, so we walked to it :) It wasn't crowded at all :) The water was cold, but it could've been a lot colder, so we lucked out :) I even got a tan :)

YEY :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
