My Vacation

I just got back from a vacation with my Grandpa. We took a train to New York City. It took 2 days to get to New York and we were there for the weekend. I went to get away from my baby sister and to see some ships.

The first ship I went to was the Intrepid Aircraft Carrier. It is a museum now. My Grandpa and I went all over the Intrepid. Next to it was the USS Growler. That is a submarine. My Grandpa couldn't go in the submarine because it has a small hatch and he was to big. I was the right size so I got to go in it by myself. We also got to go in the Concorde. That was right next to the Intrepid also. Here are some pictures of the Intrepid.

In this picture you can see the submarine. But it is an older picture so the Concorde is not there.

When we came home on the train we had a sleeper car. There is a bed like a bunk bed that I got to sleep in. It is on the wall and it has a handle that you pull it down with. Grandpa slept in the chairs because they turn in to a bed. The train ride home was long because the train was late leaving New York. I was suppose to be home at 9:30am this morning and we didn't get home until 2:30pm. By the time we got to my house it was 4:00pm I fell asleep in the car.

My younger sister is here she missed me a lot, but my older sister is at camp in Michigan. She comes home on Friday. She took a train too but her ride was not as long as mine.


Tomorrow I go back to Tae Kwondo, no more vacations for awhile.
