Cubbon Park

We were going to Cubbon Park, and on the way we went to a shop called Munchies and we bought some food.When we reached Cubbon Park we bought tickets that we needed to enter the park. They were free for children under 12 and ten Rupees each for adults.
There are many rides in the park like a Teacup Ride, Dragon Ride, and a ride in a Toy Train. We went in the toy train first because it was just near the gate.


We had lots of fun in the train, it made many creaking noises and I got so scared when I heard the noises. I thought it was going to topple, but it didn't!
After that, we went in the teacup ride.
When the ride started, I was feeling very dizzy going round and round and I almost fell out! My sister was saying, "Aaliyah- get down!"
When the ride was over, she was happy.
Then I wanted to go to the playground where the swings and monkey bars are.
When I was playing on the monkey bars. I lost my balance and fell on a small boy by mistake. There were some kind of big springs on the ground which had a round disk on top to stand on. I liked it because you have to balance on it while it bounces and shakes. I was jumping on the springs and I lost my balance.
I found another thing. It looks like a steel cylinder that you must run on, while it spins. After playing we got hungry and we had our chicken puffs. They were yummy. We played on the slides, and Aaliyah loves slides. She had lots of fun.
Finally, it was time for lunch and we left Cubbon Park. To get to our car, we passed through the other part of the park which has lots of grass, rocks and bamboo. We climbed up the biggest rock we could see. Even Aaliyah climbed up.
If you had any fun adventure in Cubbon Park, or any park, please write about it in the comments.

My funny sister: Aaliyah

Aaliyah and me, with our cousins

My sister Aaliyah is a very funny girl. She wants to do whatever I do. She likes jumping off the bed on to a mattress on the floor. We usually put pillows on the mattresses so that if we jump and fall, we don't get hurt.
Few days ago after it had rained, we went outside and jumped and splashed in the puddles. My sister doesn't yet know how to jump, so she just splashes in the water with one leg. We had lots of fun playing in the puddles.
Aaliyah: singing or screaming!
Aaliyah always wants treats like cupcakes and birthday cakes even if it isn't anyone's birthday. She always says, "Mamma, Mamma! Aaliyah birthday cake."
If anyone takes something that doesn't belong to them, Aaliyah screams and cries and grabs it and then gives it to the real owner.
When Aaliyah sees Mamma drinking Coke, she cries and says, "Aaliyah Coke!" Then we take a cup and act like we're pouring Coca~Cola in it, but there's actually water or juice in it.
Aaliyah troubles Dad by taking his wallet, removing all the cards, tearing all the money and throwing coins everywhere!
My friend has a little sister called Rosanne who is Aaliyah's age. Rosanne and Aaliyah are friends. When Rosanne shakes Aaliyah's hand, Aaliyah gets scared and runs to my mother.
Aaliyah likes bubbles, a lot! We put soap in sugar-water and made our own bubble liquid at home. We used drinking straws to blow the bubbles. When Aaliyah sees us blowing bubbles, she tries to, but doesn't know how, and drinks the sweet sugary bubble solution!
My sister is very funny. If you have any funny brothers or sisters or funny family members please write about them in the comments. I would love to read about them!
