Dear diary
We made it!!! The spot isn't what I expected, but it works. To get into our spot we must lift this heavy plate in the middle of the road. Mama called it a man hole. We dropped all of out stuff in and then we climbed down the latter ourselves. The inside of the spot was cold, dark , and vary vary smelly. Mama said it wasn't  the best but it would work, she also warned me to be careful of the RATS. I hate rates they are nasty, scary, and gross. This spot was going to take a little time to get used to. Mama must have already been here, cus she had beds set up. They were just two blankets and one pillow on a couple boards to keep them off the ground. There is one single light and when Mama flipped the switch it make the place look even worse. I could see dark, nasty colored water in the center if the floor. The water also dripped from the ceiling,GROSS!!! Well that's all for now.
