Assignment 3: Your Weekend

Today´s journal question is: What exciting things did you do this past weekend?

Directions:
1. Make a 100 word post, with a couple of photos, telling about your previous weekend.
2. Include any funny stories or exciting adventures you had
3. Visit 2 classmates´blogs and correct the English from their posts by commenting on their blog.

Helpful hints: You can find a link to everyone´s blog on the righthand corner of Ksenia´s blog. Please choose to comment and correct someone´s blog that hasn´t been already visited by someone else, so everyone can both comment and be commented on!
Example:
My family is visiting me for ten days. This past weekend we went to Isla Negra, to see Pablo Neruda´s house. I had been to La Chascona, his house in Santiago, so I expected some unusual and exciting things at his Isla Negra house as well. The tour was informative, but went by too fast - we all had questions to ask our guide, but she had to lead another group.

After seeing Pablo Neruda´s house, my brother and stepfather decided to play near the rocks by the ocean. My brother put his shoes on a rock and began walking on the sand. Suddenly, a large wave came up and took his shoes away! Everyone began laughing and screaming as he tried to get his shoes out of the water without becoming soaked. Eventually, he got them out, but he was miserable the rest of the day in soggy sneakers.

Here`s a mural of Pablo Neruda and one of his shipheads (the women at the front of ships; he collected them):
