My Winter Vacation!



My winter vacations where extremely fun and entertaining. When vacations started on December 16, all I did was sit around on my bed playing video games and relaxing watching a movie or something. I watched Two and a Half Men occasionally just to have a good laugh, I ate popcorn every time of course, I'm addicted to them. That's pretty much all I did until December 26, and sometimes I also went to the mall or to the park with my sister-in-law, my mom, and my nephew, so my nephew could have an ice cream and ride his tricycle or something.

On December 26, we had planned to go on a vacation to Reno, Nevada and after three days go to Lake Tahoe, California, although they are in different states, Reno is just 50 minutes away from Lake Tahoe if you take a cab. The plan that was really stuck in my mind was that we were going to snowboard in Lake Tahoe. After three shopping days in Reno, we finally went to Lake Tahoe to snowboard. It was really fun but really hard! It was a lot easier for me to ride the snowboard because I'm a skateboarder, so I learned how to turn easily, but my brother actually never learned how to. We stayed there in Lake Tahoe for three days, and we left on day three to Reno. The best part of the trip is about to come up!

We first went to Scheels, the biggest mall on Reno, and I bought 7 skateboard waxes, Flip and Ledge Butta brand waxes, and Bones Swiss bearings. What I was really looking for there in the U.S was this skateboarding deck, a Girl brand deck, they don't sell those over here in Vallarta, and that has been my dream since like six months ago. Then we went to a mall downtown, I don't really remember the name, we bought some DVD's and I bought a Playstation 3 game (Little Big Planet). We were walking down the mall when I suddenly look to my right, it was a store named Zumies with millions of Girl decks! I instantly ran into the store to look at the stuff they had in stock. I ended up buying a Rick Howard 7 5/8 Girl deck with MOB griptape, Thunder trucks, a skateboarding tool, Ricta and Spitfire wheels, Girl Risers, and Lucky bearings. I bought the extra wheels and bearings because they gave me the whole skateboard for seven extra bucks, and that's a perfect deal. We then came back to Vallarta, I finished my english and science homework, and here I am today writing this paragraph. That's it! :D
