heyyyy; i'm back wohoooo. My mom, sister, and I went to Seattle for a day and we saw Space Needle. We didn't go up, but there were a lot of booths there and we got a caricature done. When I'm older, I want to be able to draw like that. So we went on cruise to Alaska. Well, since we were in the middle of the ocean, we didn't have any service. There was really bad free wifi but only one device could use it at a time so my mom basically used it the whole time to watch movies on her iPad. Most of the activities onboard cost a whole lot of money, but at least there was free cake!!!! Well, we joined like a group thing and we were forced to socialize but me being that awkward person, I just played James Bond, foosball, and Smash Bros the whole time. I took way too many pictures. So the boat stopped in Juneau and we went to like a guaranteed whale watching company and we saw sooo many whales and also there was a buoy with like 5 seals just sitting there and I also saw a sea otter but i didn't have enough time to take a picture. We also stopped in Skagway where we took a helicopter up and got to walk on a glacier and drink glacier water. The water was completely blue and also, it was not as cold as I expected. It felt like around 20 degrees Fahrenheit up there, which if you live in Boston, isn't that cold. Afterwards, we took a train to the White Pass region and this region is famous because that's where the Alaskan gold rush started. Then we also went to Ketchikan and they have so many totem poles and they're known as the salmon capital. We took a seaplane, which was awesome, and we landed in the water and got to walk on the plane. We saw a few whales from the plane which was also really cool. The cruise also stopped by Victoria, British Columbia, but we chose not to get off, which I'm kind of sad about but it's fine. So anyway, the whole point of this rant was to say that I'm going to try to start focusing on writing now, if I don't get distracted by Netflix. word limit :(
