29th of November, Saturday
We were supposed to go to Niagara Falls with an Australian girl and the Gormonts, but the girl didn't come, so the trip was off. Instead, I went to Skyzone, with my volleyball team. Coach P wanted one last event to celebrate the season.Skyzone was the first place I was told to go to, when I asked, what I should do in Greece NY. It's an indoor trampoline park. The whole place is covered in trampolines, even the walls. There are different courts, for the first part of our one hour pass, we played dodgeball in our own private court against each other. Although I've never been to anything like Skyzone, we do play a lot of dodgeball in Hungary. Every fun PE class is spent playing different variations of the game.
The jumping was amazing. We got cute orange socks with sticky squares on them, and took our places on the court. I love trampolines, it was so much fun. I got tired though, quite soon. All that jumping takes a lot of energy. Before I knew it, 50 minutes have passed, playing dodgeball, and our 1 hour pass was almost up. I explored other parts of the trampoline park too, like Sky Slam, which is trampoline-basketball (I was really bad at it, so I gave that up), and also a place, where you ca jump into a huge pit full of foam cubes. However comfortable it is, to do a flip off the trampoline into a sea of softness, getting out of it was quite difficult. Dube got a blurry picture of me doing a flip. Skyzone is not a safe place though. At least one injury a day happens. So it did, when we were there. A little girl was taken away by the ambulance.
After the one hour, I left Skyzone exhausted, like a 5 year old after running around the whole day. This place is heaven for kids with ADHD. My feet were so tired, they hurt. I might have sore legs tomorrow. But it was so much fun, I don't care. A good workout and a lot of excitement.
After grabbing a bite at 3 at home (because I didn't dare eat before going on the trampolines), we went to the Garden Factory with Herb, Anne, Sun and Xynan. It's a big store where you can buy Christmas-y stuff and Christmas trees. Also, there are a lot of attractions for kids, like a petting zoo, slides, games, toy train and a merry-go-round. We got there around 30 minutes before closing time, so we only had time to visit Santa and take a picture with him. We chose a tree and as soon as it was tied to the top of the car, we were off. We also visited this expensive store, where you could buy fancy Christmas ornaments and gifts. Herb wanted me to choose an ornament, to put on the new tree, so me and Sun both got one.
