Visit to Melbourne Aquatic Centre – Wednesday 30th March 2011

We had breakfast in Mummy & Daddy’s room – which is on floor 16 in room 1603. Their room has a balcony looking out over the city and the cars look really small because we are high up. I had Weetabix but it is called Weet-Bix With Wild Berries in Australia.

Can I go to the bit where I was reading? You are typing what I say  Stop it.

I was reading Flora the Friendship Fairy. It is a holiday special with 3 stories in 1. It is about a fairy called Flora who makes sure everyone is happy and has friends. I was reading it on the balcony after breakfast.

After about an hour, we went for a walk through the park to the Aquatic Centre. Where first we went into the wave pool...I can’t remember what it is called but it is on the Punctuation Pyramid...ah yes, a “bracket” (and the waves were on as soon as we got in). We then went to the 50 metre pool and I swam 4 lengths which is 200 metres. Then my head hurt from all the swimming.

Then we got out and me and Megan were going to go to the outside pool but it was too cold I thought so we went back to the Wave Pool and it was the next wave session in 7 minutes. And Daddy arrived and he was the “PinchyBottomFish”. Then I had to grab on to Daddy because it was the wave session since I had to be “within arms reach or with an adult or 16 years old”.

We had lunch at the Centre and I had chips again and a sandwich and a Sprite which I didn’t drink. Then we went home to the Hotel called the Black Man. I packed and read a little of my book and went to Skyla’s house. I stayed there until the next morning “bracket” (I had a sleepover) “close brackets”. That was the end of the day.
