Basketball is cool
Skateboarding is difficult
The swing is so fun



The sun is orange
I am so hot they hate me
Haters gonna hate


Swinging back and forth
Gaining height with every push
Wind flows through my hair


They see me rolling
They are hating and flying
Kick me I'll go far

A Walk Thru Etterbeek

Today we took a walk through Etterbeek. We started with geocaching...

It's an app that is like a big treasure hunt game and you can play it all around the world. There was one near our house so we wanted to go find it. It was under a stair. We didn't have a pen so we couldn't write our names.


Jose convinced Yago to go by the back of the park instead of the front. It was the long way around but we ate a ice cream.

The name of the park is le Cinquantenaire. The park is near my house and is beautiful. Here is the water fountain - it's so big.


While at the park, we all took selfies! Each person found a unique item in the park to document.
