Chicago and The Pirate

about a week ago, after about 24 hours of driving, crossing Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and a lil bit of Illinois finally we got to sycamore, IL. yay! first i m gonna say sorry to rizkya because i had no time to hang out with her at Chicago :(. my mom had had the plan for us. I'm so sorry kya!
okay so after gramma betsy welcomed us in front of the house, or maybe she welcomed us not on purpose. lol because she was right in front of the door and wanted to get in the house, then with bla bla bla and bla we talked here and there, we packed our thing out. i got gramma's room. i really like this house. altho it's not two stories, it has a basement. i cannot tell how beautiful is this house. not that fancy, but elegant. anyways, we got to see 'our' cousins, Meredith, 12, and Mathew,10, then we play in the backyard, again what a pretty house and pretty back yard! there is a little dam back there. that is just so pretty. anyways we played together. 'football', hide and seek in the house, which made me feel uncomfortable, because you know it's not my house and i just walked around and seek something in it. but okay then i still enjoy this game. that afternoon, i was pretty much enjoy the reunion between this family. tired? yeah, go to bed was what i looked forward to.

the next day, we got to see Chicago. yippee! we took 2 cars (because we took our primos, tios, y abuelos as well). after about an hour of driving (we drive again!) we finally got at this awesome muse called Field Museum. that was fun. i cant tell the whole content. because there are too much stuff. but the most interesting is the pirates and the underground exhibition.
in the pirate thing, it told us how did pirate start and there were couples of names that influenced a lot in this pirates business. there is this ship called whydah. this expedition start from Africa across the Atlantic ocean to the Caribbean in the 17 century. this ship brought a lot of slave from Ethiopia. with a lot of battle and some other thing, this ship finally was taken over by the slaves. and the slaves finally own that ship and still using it as pirate ship. there are couple names that often mentioned in this exhibition: sam belammy and there is a 11 years old kid that i forget the name. the end of this ship it self was so tragic. it sank when the hurican attacked the atlantic ocean. anyways, that was fun.

the other thing is we enjoyed to see the prehistoric life in the earth. start from the earth was created until there are bunch of creature in the world. anyways i really enjoyed when i gotta see the fossil of T-rex. that was huge. gramma betsy said that it is the one of the biggest fossil that ever found in the world. that was cool. i gotta see the other fossil of the cute animal. bear! lol. that scared me. that was so much bigger than the bear now adays. after we gotta se bunch of thing in this museum, we went home. that was so sad tho, because i want to stop by at the lake michigan, but i couldn't. that was so cold and windy, also we were all tired and really wanted to go home like soon. i'm sure i can go back to chicago in college! amieen.

ok time to go!!! byee
