Trip to the Anaheim Marriott

As mom pulled up in the driveway my eyes widened . . . in the parking lot we parked in I saw a beautiful water park. I couldn't wait to go on that awesome water slide. When we brought our suitcases in and found our room we all begged to go to the water park. At first mom said "well we're going to a restaurant with the Gertschs and I  don't want to get our hair wet" but then she said we could go but we couldn't go under water. So we got on our swimsuits and we went down to level one.We opened the door and there we saw a beautiful water park.


      
We had a great time at Surfside waterpark. I accidentally got my hair wet. Mom asked if if I wanted to go down the waterslides, I said ''didn't you say that we shouldn't get our hair wet?"
Mom replied ''well you already got it wet. Go ahead. I'll be down at the bottom'' 
''Ok'', I said quietly unsure if it would be fun. 
When I got to the top I got the courage to go down the slide.  
I LOVED IT, so I did it 5 more times, then mom said it was time to go. So we all hurried and got on our cloths and hopped in the car. ''We are going to see the Gerches so be on your best behavior'' Mom said, ''we will'' we said in unison . When we arrived at the restaurant I ordered a corn dog and Elle had a girl cheese sandwich. While we were waiting dads hands flew up, ''hi friends'' he shouted. Finally the Gerches were here. A minute later our food came. I loved my corn dog.
When we came home at 8:00 mom told us that Elle and I would be babysitting Calvin while mom and dad were going to talk to the Gerches for a hour or so. It wasn't exactly new to us because we did it 2 or 3 times before. Once mom and dad put Calvin to bed  they told us we could talk for 10 min. but then we had to go to bed. When mom and dad left we got up in bed and told some adventure stories before we fell asleep.

Everyone was awake by 6:30 in the morning so mom turned on a Sophia the First while mom got ready to go to the gym.   
After the movie was over we got dressed and headed down to the gym. I had a great time teaching yoga to Elle and Cal (mostly Elle because Cal was a bit distracted )  
It was 9:00am now and the pool had opened so we headed up and got our swimsuits on. When we got down I decided I would try the big blue dark slide, so I told mom to take a picture. I climbed the stairs and when I got to the top I had courage to go down.
It actually wasn't so bad, but it was dark. A hour later mom went down with me. Calvin screamed a lot (if you know Calvin, you can't leave him). Elle and I also found some strings hanging from a bar. We LOVED using those as swings.
We played for about 2 or 3 hours and then we we walked back to our room to get in the shower, soon we were going home. When everything was packed up we headed down to level 1. The 2 men outside carried our suitcase to our car while we stayed in the front of the the Marriott. Then he drove our car over to us and loaded our suitcases in the trunk. 

Then we headed home. I had a great trip and always would keep it in mind.
