Riley's Adventures

We are in Paris, France right now. From Dresden, we took a 2-hour bus all the way to the capital of Germany, 'Berlin'. From Berlin, we flew to Paris, France. It was about a 2 and a half hour ride. We arrived into Paris, France. Got our luggage. We left on the subway, but one thing that very weird. We never went into customs/passport check.  We just got on the RER #C to 'Gare Du Nord', and took the M#5 Metro (Subway in French) going toward Place d' Italian, and got off at Oberrkamf, our hotel's metro stop. We checked-in at our hotel, and then had Pizza for Dinner.  We went to bed, after finding ants under our bed and in the bathroom. It stinked because Mom just got done spraying Bug Spray around the hotelroom, which she had rented from the hotel's front desk. Paris was a very interesting city, my 2 favorite things I liked it Paris, Well you probaly know the first one, which was the Metros and Buses. #2 Favorite Thing: The Eiffel Tower!  We went to the top! It...

On February 17th 2011, PYP in Dresden International School had an early Fasching Party. For all classes, it started at 1:20pm to 3:20pm. Each person/teacher/student received  1 free snack, and most were wearing costumes. Some of the games they did were Musical Chairs, Musical Statues, and an Egg Race. The Student Coucil PYP planned this fun, and exciting event.  Another one of the fun things were a Raffle. Students who won in 3B were Mark, Ashley, Corban, etc. Each raffle ticket was 1 Euro. They drew about 45 tickets. Everyone was wearing cool, scary, funny costumes on. Students could not wear their costumes to school. They had to change 10 minutes before this party. Here is a little interview with some of the students from DIS: Fransziska said before the party that she thinks everyone will enjoy the party. She was a princess. Ashley said she thought that she would like it. She was dressed up as a princess, also. Ms. Anne said she thought she would like it. She think...

(Hopefully not on my birthday) I will show you pictures of our adventures here in Germany. Here, I will show you two of my favorites up at the top...

Yesterday, we wanted to go to the mall to get Maggie's Cone. (A Cone of toys because of when school starts for only 1st graders) We went to a store named Muller and did a lot looking then checked out and then Mom went in this earring store and I waited at a resturant table. Then we left and we got on a bus becasue Prager St. is Contruction right now. I thought in would take us to Bohnhoff Mitte were the 6 NIdersedlitz goes and we could take the 6 home. I kept. saying to Mom, it's the next one, and I kept. repeating it. I went to look at the map and some lady said we were going the wrong way and then I say at the stop that another bus stoped at the stop near our house. We looked and it said that we would have to be on that bus for 50 minutes! We had to do it every know we didn't want to. We got on that one and it took forever. We got off at another stop I wasen't really planning to do, but then took another tram from that stop home. Does that make any sense?

Near the Shiler Garten in Dresden, Germany, the bike trail againest the Elbe River is crowed because of a flood. Some of the bike trail got flooded and evryone is using the back-up one but is very small. The rain got v ery tough and filled up the Elbe River. All the Fahres are closed and docks are filled with water.

I woke up and it was 6 in the morning. It was thundering and all the lights were on. I went in the kitchen and Dad was making coffee. He said “ Do you want breakfast?” I said “Sure”. He made me cereal. And then Maggie came in and Dad made her breakfast, too. Then I said “Wait, We’re going to Prague today!” (Prague is one of the top 10 cities in the world!) We started to pack and got in our car and went to Prague. Dad got some money at the back, stopped at the Groccrie Store and got some drinks for the ride, and got some gas for the car, and then started to our ride to our hotel we we’re going to go to. Dad said we couldn't check in to the hotel until 2:00, so we went to the huge mall I’ve every seen! We had lunch there. I had a Fish Stick sandwich and Maggie had the samething. Dad had a shrimp sandwich. Mom had this big bowl of everything. We went to the hotel and checked in. We put our cloths away. We went took a walk and went up a lot of stairs to get to a castle. We walked...

A ton of trams... Will yesterday, we wanted to go on a hike on one of the trails in Dresden. We got on a tram and went to a stop and started walking on a trail. Maggie wanted to stop at a playground so we stopped at one and played there for like 10 minutes. We walked back to another tram stop and saw that train #1 Phrolis and #2 this very long one stop there. We knew that it didn't go to our house. But we saw that it went to a stop that a another trm that goes to our house stops there. So we get on #1 Prolis and wait and wait and wait. The tram gets to it's end stop and turns into 1 Lutawisz. We stay on that one and Mom says that one will go to a stop that goes to our house. It gets to that stop, we had to cross a ton of streets and got on th e tram that went to our house. We get home and had crazy day. Lost key... We went to the pool and Mom lost her locker key to our locker where all our stuff was in. She told the life guard and apparently some one found in. Thank You whoeve...

On the last day of school, (6/24) we first went to my babysitter's house. Usually we are always late, but today we were early. So I was just talking to Joy, my babysitter(only in the morning). Will when we had to leave to go to school on the last day! I went to wait to go in the school building. Mrs. Tina, let us in. I went to my classroom and we cleaned out our desk then we made a little autograph book. The cover was what you won't miss about school and what you will miss in school. I glued on the cover. Then people came around to sign my book. Ms. Durham said I could play my slideshow I made. It made Gregory, a kid in my class. The slideshow is about 10 minutes long. Than we started cleaning a lot. Then we went to go to the rug to tell of what we will never forget in our 2009-2010 school year. Mrs. Bondi, our school's pick up lady, picked us up and brought us to the cafeteria. I saw my Grandma waiting for me. I had a great 2nd grade/2009-2010...

Yesterday, My class threw me a party, a Farewell party. At Payton's house, a girl in my class. I had so much fun. First, I bl owed up this big beach ball. It took me about 5 minutes to blow up. Then we played volley-ball. It was fun. Then I had some Pizza because the party was from 4:00-6:00. So then we just played the whole time. Then when everyone left, we were still there. We opened the gifts. I want to thank everyone for coming. I want to thank you Payton's whole family, everyone who came, and thats pretty much it!

Will, on May 1st (Friday) I went to this fishing tournament. It was at 4H(Hour) Training Center in Milton, NY. I was 7-11(time). So we arrive. We see everyone (mostly everyone) at the pond. We get our fishing poles and fishing box. We went to the registration room. Me and Maggie had to write our Name, Address, and Phone Number. Name:___________________________________________________________ Address:________________________________________________________ Phone #: _______________________________________________________ After we wrote that, we went to the pond. We went to the nearest one because we brought a lot of heavy stuff and it was hard to go to the other pond because it was far away. So when we got up close to the pond, the pond was really small. It was really hard to cast you rod, because there was a bunch of other people. After Like 20 minutes I heard some people saying that they only put like six(6) fish in the pond. 20(twenty) minutes after that, I saw some guy catch ...
