Fall at Eaton Canyon Fall (by William)

Last weekend I went to hiking at Eaton Canyon Fall and I fell twice.

The scratches first looked like the asteroid belt (mom didn't take pictures of my scratches back to the asteroid stage),

then they turned into the Rockies, 


and now they are the Great Plains. 


Don't worry, I am still running around J.

Poem Written with the Classical Typewriter on Colorado Blvd in Pasadena (by William)

(First time to see/use a classical typewriter)

Families are beloved, 

and my family includes my mom, dad, grandma, and grandpa. 

I call it my beloved family, 

and I really enjoy my family.


Legoland (by William)

My vacation started when my mom and dad took me to Legoland during the summer.

When we got to Legoland, we first entered in the gate to get a map to plan what to do and what do watch. Then we went to Miniland U.S.A. When we got there I saw models of Las Vegas, Southern California, and San Francisco. My favorite is Southern Californian and Las Vegas. I wanted to visit the Water Park. The water is not deep, but it is fun and has a lot of water toys. We didn’t go because we didn’t have swimming suits on. Next let me introduce the Land of Adventure. It has a ride called Cargo Ace and an adventure photo booth. We also visited the Star Wars area. There are models of planets and one of them is Endor.

Legoland Miniland U.S.A - Hollywood

The Star War models are magnificent

I liked Legoland and I want to go there again.

Fourth of July Fireworks (by William)

When it is the Fourth of July, people love to celebrate using fireworks.  So, in this story you will learn about fireworks.

First, you will learn about how to make fireworks.  You had probably heard the word fuse.  If you had, you have a good brain, and if you hadn’t, we will learn together.  There are three fuses in aerial fireworks, the side fuse, main fuse, and the time delay fuse.  The other major components include gun powder, stars, and paper wrap as the body.  Every firework has its color because there are different types of metals and chemicals.

I may suggest you to buy fireworks at some TNT Fireworks shop along the streets.  After you use your sparklers, I think you may want to watch aerial fireworks pop in the sky, in that case, you should go to a city park such as Almansor Park to watch it. 

Now you know how to make fireworks, how to color is made, where to buy it, and where to watch it, off you go to the world of fireworks.  Good Luck!
