On Sunday Michelle's mom took Michelle, Narae, and Carmen to Harrison Hot Springs for Michelle's 15th birthday!!!
The ride was pretty short, considering we were all talking and laughing the whole ride. When we got to Harrison, we first found a place to eat. We had sushi and teriyaki for lunch. Then we walked to the hotel and checked in. The room we got was totally cool. It was one of those rooms that is actually 2 rooms connected into 1. In the first side of the room there are 2 beds, a TV, a bathroom, and other stuff. The 4 of us would be staying in that room. The other side has a couch (sofa), a TV, a bathroom, and other stuff. Michelle's mom was staying in that one. After we got settled in, we went to explore some of the hotel. We first went to the Cornet room, it was a room full of board games, and also a wii. I LOVE board games, so we started playing this game called HeadBadz or something like that. Basically each of us had a band around our heads, and we put a card that has a picture of something on it. We can't see it ourselves, but every other player can. Basically each or us go in turn to ask 1 question to try to guess what the picture we have is. The question is a yes/no format, and the other players have to answer you. The pictures we get are all nouns, and it could be an animal, a type of food, something you use, or wear. During the first round of the game, it took us a long time to get what we were, because we didn't know how to ask the right questions. Eventually we got better. It was such a fun game!
After playing games in the Cornet room, we decided to hit the Hot Springs. So we changed into our swim suits and got into the water. The hot springs was pretty okay, I am not really a water person. There was a lot of people there, but it was pretty cool. There wasn't much space to swim unless you go to swimming pool, but then the swimming pool is colder, so we mostly stay in the hot springs part. After more than an hour of soaking in water, we went back in and took turns taking shower. When we were all done, we made sure our hair was dry and all that, because the restaurant we were going to didn't allow sneakers or ripped or torn clothing. The Restaurant was in the Copper Room, and I think it is called the Copper Room too. So, there is this stage in the back, and a dance floor in the middle, with tables all around it. It was soooooooooooo cool!!! I have never been somewhere like that. Plus, there was a live band performing, and there were actual people dancing. It was EPICALLY AWESOME! Not to mention the food! The food was totally delicious! We had a very delicious meal, and after that we got these cool drinks that was pina colata in the bottom and strawberry mix on the top. We also ordered like 4 desserts, and they were all sooooo good. There was creme brule (my first time eating it!!!), cheese cake, mocca mouse with chocolate, and other stuff that I can't name. By the end of the meal, we were so very very full. Oh, and one of the best parts of the meal was that we got to dance on the dance floor together. It was a little awkward, but really fun.
After dinner we went back to our room. Because Michelle's mom was so generous for taking us on this trip, Carmen, Narae, and me decided to thank her by getting her chocolates and making her this super large card. So we brought them along on the trip, and when Michelle's mom went to the hot springs by herself, the 4 of us took our the colour markers and started writing our thanks on the card. Let me tell you, it was a SUPER DUPER card, and it was HUGE. Like one piece of poster board paper folded in half huge (which is exactly what it was, of course it was decorated though!). When we were done, we waited for Michelle's mom to come back so we could surprise her. Meanwhile, we found this new game that was super fun on my Ipad. It is this game called Cows VS. Aliens, and it can be played by multiple players. We got really carried away with the game because it was so fun. That night we only stayed up till 2 o'clock because we had to get up early the next day to check out. But during that time, we did watch a few episodes of my little pony and Michelle opened her presents. I think I kinda messed up the order of the night a little, but it doesn't really matter. ^^
