My trip to Italy

Italy

Italy was AWESOOOMMMME!!!!!!!
It was even better then Spain and Paris can you believe that!
Every day we swam in the mediterranean sea and ate gelato.

Take a look

It looks so much like paradise right?

that's me and stella, the waves are so big that they are pushing us back!

we are about to go on an awesome ferry ride with otis and milly

there were towns built on the side of these amazing mountains

don't you wish you were them? the water is so blue!

we are standing by the tower of pisa


so many people were pretending to hold it up! there were so many everywhere you looked. my mom and my uncle did a contest of who could take the most funniest pictures of them pretending to hold the tower up!

we took trains to see other beach towns

I bought these glasses on the beach, there are so many people selling things on the beach.

another amazing town on the mountain side.

I wonder who could be living up there, drying their laundry?


I told you we eat Gelato everyday!

this town was called Riomaggiore, it is a town of Cinque Terre.

about ME






Hi! 
My name is meredith, but you can call me mimi. I was born in America and raised there, but now I live in London. Life has changed a lot. Here are the changes:
second grade is called year 3.
dollars are called pounds.
the children work a year ahead.
the teachers are very strict.
the accents here sound to me like they are singing.
Lots of people don't have cars. Most people just walk places or ride a bike or a bus or a train.
On a bike, people have a child on the front or on the back or in a box.
Our church building looks like a Temple to me.
They have Kings and Queens who live in Palaces.
They don't have cornbread or mac and cheese here.
They call fries chips. And chips are crisps.
Most people live in flats which are apartments and not houses.

My favorite thing about living in London is, my friends here are really nice to me and care a lot. My best friend's are Sefora, Luwam, Hollie, Sumaira, Wasima and Kahella.
Every monday we walk to a swimming pool with my class and swim. My mom walks with us.
I like living in London because we are close to lots of cool places like Italy and France.
Italy is my favorite.
I also like it when my family comes to visit from America.
Often we surprise each other with visits.
They surprise us and we surprise them too.

Thanks for reading my blog!
Bye.
