OMG! I just heard that one of the famous statues here was vantilized badly! OMG! It is the statue of the sea god Neptune! Soccer is the sport here. It is as popular as football or baseball in Amercia. Well anyway......Portugal won against England and some gang did not like this. So they went to the statue (like 200 of them) and one of them climbed atop the statue (it is really high and above a fountain I dunno how someone could climb on it) and they broke the sword he was holding and they put a green and white scarf around his neck (the symbol of that gang). Then when the guy was trying to get down from the statue, he fell and some flesh from his thigh got stuck on the statue. Sorry that was a bit disturbing. But that is what happened. I'm at my aunt and uncle's house right now (I refered to it as my cousin's house in the last entry). We are really close to where the statue is so we might visit it tomorrow to see what it looks like. OKAY. NE WAY....I haven't wrote an entry in a while. I'm sorry. I was beginning to write one a few time before but my cousin's wanted to use the computer or go outside. OK at the end of Day 4 I had to go to the dreaded grandmother's house. It truned out to be okay. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I thought my grandmother would be asking me questions about the divorce. She didn't really. She only asked how many people lived with us and when my mom and Jesse returned from work. My uncle (on my dad's side) is really cool. He was there to and he talked to me and my brother (he went along). My grandmother and him lost a lot of weight. My grandmother said she lost close to 20 kg (I dunno what that is in pounds). She had a lot of serjury so that explained things. Day 5 started with my grandfather and I building a Titanic puzzle. He is really into puzzles. I wanted to spend some time with him so I did. The Titanic puzzle was the easiest. I'm not good with puzzles but my grandfather is. He puts togther puzzles with 1000 + pieces. The Titanic one is only 200 and the pieces were big. Later my brother hung out with his friend named Carol. He sees him everytime we come down here. My cousin (from my dad's side) and her boyfriend were with us to. She is 19. She also lost a lot of weight. There is a new park and bike path here. We walked on the bike path around the beach. It was fun. Day 6 we went to this big famous garden with a lot of plants and stuff. LOL. I don't know exactly what it was but it was nice. I'll post pictures on my web site soon from that and everywhere esle I have gone. Also on Day 6 we went to one of the largest churches in Poland. It was cool. They had a huge organ in the wall and they played a concert. On our way back from the church I bought a new necklace with a cross on it. It cost 30 zlote (the Polish currancy). 3.75 zlote= about $1. During day 7 I was at my aunt and uncles. My cousin (the oldest) named Silvia introduced me to all her girlfriends (friends that are girls) LOL. We walked around a lot and played Volleyball. That is very popular here. It just rained and the ball fell down a hill. It was steep and tall. I went down the hill to get the ball and got all muddy and wet. One of my cousins later told me that the guy playing with us did that on purpose to mkae me look stupid. OH WELLS. Day 8 we went to a giant castle in the town of Malbork. My uncle had to drive us there. It was a 2 hour drive. The cars in Poland are very tiny and there wasn't much room. I had to sit in the back with my aunt and Jesse. I was in the middle. My butt hurt when we finally got there LOL. The castle was cool. There was a lot of walking. We had a tour guide. I could somewhat make out what she was saying (in Polish). She talked really fast. It was interesting. The only bad thing was that we had to pay ahead of time if we planned to take pictures. I took a lot of pictures while we were there. Day 9 I went to my aunt and uncles again and we went to downtown Gdansk. That's where the Neptune statue is. I got pictures of the statue by the way before it was destroyed. On day 10 my cousins came over and we hung outside. On day 11 I went to the beach with my cousin and her girlfriends. On Day 12 I went to the biggest pier in Poland. That was cool. I bought suvoniers there for a lot of people. Day 13 (Today)- I visited my grandmother's (mom's side) for the second time. I bought the nicest candles to put on it with my own money. I cleaned around it where there was dirt. My cousins came over again and we hung out. My cousins begged my uncle to let me sleep over on my last full night here so that's where I am now. Dang it is Midnight!!!! I have to go to bed LOL. Tomorrow is my last full day. I am going to visit my grandfather's (dad's side) grave. The trip there is 2 hours. I have to be with my grandmother for that long (well 4 and a hlaf hours if you count there and back plus being at the grave itself). Sunday morning we have to wake up at 2 AM, go to the Gdansk airport, catch a flight to Warsaw, the capital of Poland. Then we have to wait 6 hours and catch a flight to Chicago which will take minimum 9 hours. I'm not sure about times, I'll try to post them later on. Oh I forgot to talk about what happened to my oldest cousin. Well my oldest cousin, she is 16, was offered to get her nails painted by my mom so she was getting them painted and my grandfather saw. He was freaking out and saying she was too young (SHE IS 16). People are so strict here and everything. Oh and they drive fast too (80 km an hour) really fast. LOL. G2G. GOOD NIGHT!!!!!!!
