OMG!!!!! its finally Friday and the field trip is TODAY plus me and Ashley's sleepover is today and it starts at the end of school cause we get out at 2:00p.m instead of 2:30p.m but why talk about the end the of the day when its only just beginning we are leaving for zoombezi bay at 8 and we will be gone pretty much all day and we can't wait to get there. we just want to be put in the same group together so we can ride the rides together and spend today together. Its 7:30 right now and we leave in half an hour. Since there's only 20 of us going we got to go in a different classroom with a teacher and just chill and talk till it was time to go.

Our teacher Ms. Willow sent 5 of us at a time to the bathrooms to change and put our swimsuits on under our clothes so it would be easier. When were done we were told to walk back down to the classroom. When everyone returned and got back in their seat we only had to get right back up. "Nows the time to get your bag out of your locker that you are taking with you 'cause were not doing it on the way out." Me and Ashley walked down the hall to our lockers with everyone else and grabbed our bags then walked back to the classroom. We went over to a table and started pulling stuff out. "Ready to go over the checklist jenny?"
"Ready." "Okay." We pulled out all of our stuff and sat it down on the table. "Sun screen?" "Check." "goggles?" "Yup." "Flip-flops?" "Yeah." "Towel?" "Got it." "Lunch?" "Yes siree." "Our clothes for after?" "Uh-huh." "Sounds like were good to go then." "Sure does." Ashley looked over at the clock. "Its 7:45, we leave in 15 minutes!" "Everybody line up so I can take a head count." As Ms. Willow walked down the line tapping the kids shoulders and counting, 3 more teachers walked in the room. "Okay everyone's counted for, does everybody have their bags?" "Yes." Replied the students. "Then let's go, start heading out to the bus." Me and Ashley moved quick so we could get a seat together, and we talked the whole way there.
