Mon 30 Nov






Today I went on a field trip to an Organic farm. We left the University around 550am and were on the road for about 3 to 4 hours. We pasted through small towns that were very nice and started to go up hill in the last part of the journey. Soon we were climbing the sides of the mountains and getting higher and higher every minute. When we arrived in the small town in the mountains, we were right next to the clouds. We were so high up that the clouds would climb up the side of the mountains and we would be able to see it coming. Then two seconds later we would be in the middle of one. We wouldn’t be able to see anything for about 5 min and then it would become clear and sunny again. We looked over the valley and different mountains and yelled out as loud as we could. Not only did we hear one echo, but three! It was so beautiful there and the air was cool and fresh which reminded me of the north shore. The sun was out so I felt right at home, when everyone else had their jackets on because they couldn’t handle how cold it was. Everything was green and healthy because it rained there about everyday and then the sun came out right after.

Our first tour was on hill side full of plants. We had to hike up one hill to go to the other side to see the plants. We were so high up that by the time we got to the top of the hill, everyone was gasping for air like a fish out of water. After looking at some other places at the farm, we then traveled to the small town for lunch. The town was famous for it beautiful garden. The garden was made up of different shrubs and reminded me of Alice in Wonderland. We had lunch and then had time to go and check out the cool garden. After the garden, we all got back on the bus and started heading for EARTH. During the trip, my friend Berlin and I were in the back of the bus and he was looking for trouble. So when everyone was sleeping, he started calling for his friend who was in the front of the bus. By the time he was done yelling, everyone was awake and mad at him. I couldn’t stop laughing because he kept doing it no matter how many people told him to shut up. For the next hour and one half he was creating all sorts of trouble and the whole time I was in tears and couldn’t breathe because I was laughing so hard. When we got home, I went to my house and then went to bed. What a great day!
