Sep. 21: No internet

Hello!

The Longs have run out of bandwidth for the month, so I won't be able to blog anymore. Perhaps at one of the airports. I'm doing this at the library, by the way.

On Monday we went to the Corning Museum of Glass. Awesome place! I did some glass fusing there, and will have to show you guys when I get back.

Today was the home-ed co-op, and tomorrow we're going to Rochester.


See you guys soon!

Sep. 19: Niagara Falls

Helloo-ee!

Sorry, but there'll be no more video posts as the Long's internet limit is running out (they have 5GB a month).

On Wednesday we went to Watkin's Glen, which is a really beautiful ravine with loads of waterfalls and stone bridges: it looks like something out of The Lord of the Rings! Youth group in the evening

Thursday we were preparing 7 bushels of corn for the winter, and then we went to Applebee's (a restaurant-bar) and had a meal (surprisingly for a restaurant). I had a Jalapeno burger (bit too spicy!).

Friday we slept in and then went to a concert to see a band called Selah, which was great. Two vocalists and a pianist, with drum tracks on some songs.

On Saturday we went to Nigeria Niagara Falls! We went to the Canadian side (which is so much better than the US side, eh!), which meant I had to cross the border. Into Canada was Canadian guards: they didn't care. On the way back: US guards, who were slightly less friendly. Eric and I also got to go on the Maid of the Mist, with us both pretending to be Scouce!?

Sunday (today) we went to church and had some people back for a meal.


Will hopefully blog soon,

Sep. 14: Janie

Hey, guys! Sorry I haven't posted for over a week. Janie asked me to film her on Tuesday, so I did, and half-turned it into a blog post. I didn't haven't time to upload it, but here it is. I will hopefully do another one tomorrow or Saturday.

Sep 1: Flights

Yes, I know I'm posting this on September the 2nd, but I didn't really have time last night, what with getting into Pittsburgh at midnight (my body time: 7pm local time).

Anyway, welcome to the blog! This is the first real post, as the test one didn't count. The video was done at JFK, and I should hopefully do one tomorrow, as I'm going away with Auntie Hilary & Co. (my aunt who I;m staying with), and I won't be able to do one till we get back.

The video embedding doesn't seem to be working properly at the moment, so I'll just link to it:

Video Diary Sep. 1st

And yes, I did get through the rest of the flights safely, as evidenced by this post. Apologies for me acting tired: I was. was weird last night as we had dinner at 2am (GMT), to try and force me to adapt. Breakfast felt like lunch this morning, and I woke up at 4:30am: 9:30 GMT, the time I will wake up at automatically if left to sleep in.

It's also swelteringly hot! As in, 30+ Celsius! The fans are on the whole time, and I'm drinking about a litre every 30min.

Anyway, I will try to post again tomorrow.

The Start

This is purely a test post to see what posts look like on the blog.
