so yesterday, jake's kind of cousin and his wife took us to this place called Alton Towers. its this theme park thats built on the grounds of an old castle type thing, and the castle is there still, too. anyways,there was this stupidly scary ride called Oblivion which i did not go on, thank goodness, but Garreth and Jake did. it was a roller coaster and it took them very slowly up this massive hill, then kind of stopped right as they were w=about to plunge over this completely vertical drop. like, completely vertical. into a black hole. literally. WHO DOES THAT???? it looked so ridiculously scary im so glad i didnt go on it.
i did, however, go on FIVE OTHER ROLLER COASTERS!!!!!!!!!!! i dont do roller coasters, and i went on five of them! real ones!!! fast ones, plunging ones, upside down ones, lying down ones. ahh yes, i did them all by myself :) not really, cause i sat with jake the whole time. but kind of..
anyways, google Alton Towers. I went on Rita, Thirteen, Air, Nemesis, and Sonic Spinball. so if you can find those, like videos or anything, be proud of me. ahh yes.
we are off to ireland tonight, and im really quite nervous about it...so lets just hope it goes well!
also, i really wanted to try a Chomp, which is some kind of chocolate bar caitlin and lisa told bme about, but i couldnt find them ANYWHERE. soo we asked Garreth and emma,and they took us to a convenient store, and they didnt have them. but they found Curly Wurlys, which i guess are the same kind of. and they were so delicious. it was just chocolate with toffee in it..but it was just sooo good. and apparently im getting to try a Chomp today! yayayayayaaaaa!!!!!
miss you all :)

Please keep this blog coming. I love all of your stories. They put me in a relaxed mood because I can envision myself travelling through Europe. I guess I'm living vicariously through you guys. Well done.
