So after a couple of days,.....we finally arrived in Stonington, Maine. There we had some home-made ice cream at a little ice cream store and then we went to load our things on to the boat. Uncle Leo and uncle Jerry, John and Mike arrived a little later, and so we loaded all our things together in two big boxes and then, with a bunch of other people we drove off. It was an about 45 minute ride. We unloaded and carried all our things up to the house which is not far away at all from the wharf. Julianna, Emmi and I were in one big room.
During the week we had lots of activities: We played Yahtzee all the time, we went to church, went to an auction for the local school , went to the light house, we ( or most of us ) even went for a long hike and Julianna, Mike and Ryan even jumped into theAtlantic Ocean. We cleaned th Opel, went to Long Pond to wash several times, and lots of other things.

Six Flags!!!
So a couple days after the party we started our trip to Isle au Haut. Sadly Ana couldn't come all the way with us, but she came with us to our first stop: SIX FLAGS!!!!Aunt Joanne and Ryan didn't come, so uncle Walt, Ana, Julianna, Emily and I went by ourselves. It wasn't very warm that day, well, not warm enough for the water park, so we just went on roller coasters. Superman was closed for a checkup, but that didn't really affect me because I don't like big drops. All five of us went on Blizzard river and while we were in line we saw aunt Suzanne, Chelsea and Micheal and met up with them after the ride.
After we had had lunch Julianna remembered that last year when we were at six flags, I had promised to go on batman the next year. So we went to stand in line. It went very slowly and by the time it was our turn to go on, which was about 2 hours later, I was pretty scared. Then we were all buckled in and the ride began. i sat in the middle between Julianna and Ana. They said i would wanna go again after the ride, but I wasn't too sure about that. Now just for those of you who don't know what kind of roller coaster batman is , here's a picture from the internet ( you're not allowed to take pictures in the ride )
..........
and a hint : It is very loopy, I think they're are like seven loops!!!! the ride was really short, but it was totally worth it. After we got off I said Oh my god, I wanna go again", because seriously....it was AWESOME!!!!!
So we spent the rest of the day on fun rides, then aunt Suzanne, Chelsea and Micheal took Ana home and the rest of us ( the Cogswells and I ) drove to a comfort inn and stayed there over night. It'd been a fun day!!

Just hanging out
In the next couple of days we just hung out at grandmas house and then on friday we drove halfway to meet aunt joanne and went home with her.
Detroit to New York
On Tuesday we left pretty early to go to the airport. There we had to pay the 50 dollars for unaccompanied minor, which I didn't have to pay on the way to Detroit. Caitlin' s mom, Erin and Caitlin got a pass to go through security and after I got on the plane they had to wait until it took off. At first I sat next to two broad shouldered me, then the stewardess came ( she called me Danielle...lol)and asked them if they wanted to change seats. They said they were fine , so she left with a skeptical look, but came back after 5 minutes asking me to come with her. I wondered what the problem was, but followed her and she led me to a seat in business call. It was so awesome!!! I had two seats for myself, probably the seats the two men would have gotten if they agreed to have been moved. I was really happy.
We had to wait for about half an hour for the plane to take off because there were so many other planes in line to take off. In Business class you get your drinks in a real glass instead of a plastic cup and you get snacks on short flights.
The stewardess told me to stay seated and when everyone was off the plane she guided me out into the terminal where another 2 flight attendends waiting for me. I hung out with them , sat behind the counter while they checked 2 flights and then went with them to a northwest "common room" and hung out there.Then after about four hours we waited in front of McDonalds and then Mom and Dad appeared. Dad had to sighn omething and then the three of us got on a bus to grand central. Then we took the train to NewBurgh where grandma and grandpa were waiting for us. It was pretty late when we got home.
