Bike Adventure

Today Mom, Dana, Dad and I went down to kits (at 11:30 but reached kits at 12:15) to watch Ryan play wheelchair tennis. When we got there Ryan was winning and won in the end. I was very helpful. I went to Segal's to get some lunch. After we went with Sheri to Stanly Park by going around Vanier park and onto the burrard bridge and around the seawall to the park. We found the Lions Gate Bridge and went over top of it under it and on both sides(in Vancouver) and finally over it. Then we went to a Vietnamese for Dinner. We got spring rolls, Salad rolls, beef and noodles and chicken on a skewer. The only problem was that instead of salad rolls we got spicy chicken. Then we went to Ambleside to take a picture and then back over the bridge. Sheri went home when we reached Prospect point because it was getting late and me and Dana had ice cream. We biked home and arrived at 8:35. I had a bowl of noodles and then did my Daily Mile Daily Smile

I sugjest that you read The Witch's Boy. It is really good.

Warriors : Bluestar's Prophecy - Erin Hunter

Summary
This book is about a cat named Bluestar. She is the leader of ThunderClan. It tells how she became leader and the prophecy she received from Goosefeather: Like fire, You will blaze through the forest. She started as Bluekit and she was getting into trouble. Soon she became an apprentice and was named Bluepaw. She was a good apprentice, but in a battle with WindClan, her mother Moonflower was killed. She put it behind her and became a warrior, Bluefur. Her sister Snowpaw also became a warrior and was named Snowfur. Snowfur got killed by getting hit by a car. Bluefur gave up her children to become the deputy of ThunderClan and eventually leader. At the end of the book a house cat named Rusty. Bluestar made him an apprentice and called him Firepaw. 

Favorite part 
My favorite part was when she caught a squirrel on her first try.

Rating
****
It was a good book and very interesting but I think it could have had more action to it.

Kids Kan Kook - 1=Success

Kids Kan Kook was a success. It went all as planned. There was only one problem but I will talk about it later. We invited Sheri to eat with our food. I made the sandwiches with salami. The problem was that I fell asleep for most of the Kooking. The food was still really good though. After she timed us at the track for our Daily Mile Daily Smile. Then we went to Dairy Queen. So after all our work we made a good meal.

Daily Report Day 6

Today was a good day. I started by playing some video games, then my mommy asked me if I wanted to go biking for 27 Km. I agreed because I didn't want my daddy to put me to work. We started at our house and biked to UBC, around the seawall to Vanier park, up cypress (the street) and back home. When we got home we went for our Daily Mile Daily Smile and I had to slow down to not get a Pb and then we went golfing. It was a great day.
