8th Day Friday 31st March -Washington D.C- By Maria López



Today, my partner, Ananya, and I woke up at 6:30 am. We were a little bit slowly when we were getting ready today, because we were so tired from a long day yesterday. So, we eat breakfast in the car on the way to school. Ananya dropped me off at the front of the school, and she went to class. All of the Spanish and French students boarded the bus and we travelled to Mount Vernon. It was raining really hard, but we brought umbrellas and ponchos. The bus dropped us off in front of the house, and after we entered, we began to look at various rooms. We got to see bedrooms, bathrooms, the kitchen, George Washington room, guest rooms, servant's rooms, the garage and cars, and stable. I thought the gardens and trees were very beautiful. We also saw the memorial in honor of the slaves that worked at Mount Vernon. Then, we went to the museum next to the house that had information about George Washington's life. Then, we ate lunch. I ate a salami sandwich and a peanut butter-jelly sandwich, and a banana. Everyone shared the lunches and I tried new food like pepperoni, apple chips, sweet popcorn, and cheez it's. We planned on going to see a Nationals baseball game, but it got cancelled because of the heavy rain. So, we returned to school and met our partners. Then we decided to go to the mall all together. We shopped at Victoria's Secret, Starbucks, Sephora, and Hollister. Then, Ananya's mom picked us up to go home. After this, we relaxed at home, and ate chili-dogs and salad for dinner. Then, we went to go play with a new puppy in Ananya's neighbor's house, and then we watched a movie and went to sleep. I love to stay with Ananya and her family. Her dog is so cute.
