Diary Of A Wimpy Kid Best Summer Vacation Ever
Tuesday June 24
Today is the last day of school before summer vacation starts. Rowley's family and mine are going to go on a huge vacation, all around North America. Mom said that if I get good grades I could come. I know that I have passed so I can just relax for the rest of the day. It was half an hour until the bell rang. My math teacher said we had to clean our desk and locker out, so I started on my desk. I found stuff in there that I lost at the start of the year. Like a comic book and a least 20 pencils. Also half a ham sandwich was at the bottom.
I finished my desk and then I started on my locker, but I had done that on Monday. Just at the right time the bell rang. I grabbed my backpack and went through the door to see Rowley I called, "hey we leave in two hours". Rowley told me that his dad got sick. Mr. Jefferson would not be coming on vacation and Rowley's Mom needed to stay and take care of him. I was happy that Rowley's parents were not coming because they would ruin the trip.
I went home with Rowley. He passed with an A so it was a relief to know he would be allowed to come with us. When we got to my house Mom said that I had to pack because we would leave in one and a half hours. Rowley had packed last night so he was done and came and helped me. I did not know what to bring. There are hundreds of things that I wanted to bring, but I had a small suit case. I pack my clothes and tooth brush. Now it was time to pack the entertainment. I brought my portable game machine and lots of games. We are going to rent a car with a DVD player inside it. That meant I could bring and watch movies. So I took my favorite movies Kill 1, Kill 2, Kill 3, Head Hunter, and Death by Brick. We also tried a new one called "The Blood". Dad left to get the van it was 15 minutes before we left. Dad had finally come home so we left. Manny had to sit by a window and have a seat next to him for his toys. That met Rodrick sat in the seat by Manny's toys not by me. Rowley and I sat in the back with the DVD player. Mom and Dad sat in the front.
It was 30 minutes into the trip when it started to rain. Then Manny started to sing. That is when we started a movie "The Blood" Mom did not see what we were watching. The Blood was about two men who pick up a hitch hiker. The guy did not want their help he wanted their blood. It was one of the most horrifying things I ever saw or heard.
We saw a hitch hiker on the road and Dad said we should help him me and Rowley yelled "No" but Dad said he was going our way. Mom said "No" also so we did not get the guy. Mom locked the door that made me feel safe. It was raining so hard that we had to go and look for a hotel. We found one. We all went in and they had a colossal pool. We got our room and there were three bedrooms and a bathroom. Rowley and I got a room with a bunk bed. Mom and Dad got a room with a double bed. Manny got a single bed and Rodrick took the couch. We got a TV in our room and the living room. We went to the pool Rodrick took us. Manny needs to have a life jacket; Mom said I had to find one. I went to the front desk and asked if they had jackets. They said yes but they thought that it was for me. I felt like saying "Do I look like I need a life jacket?" So I got the biggest size they had. I asked if they had a smaller size then she gave me the right size for Manny. When I got there it was so cool. It had a water slide and a diving board even Rodrick was having fun. I helped put on Manny's jacket. Then I jumped in the water it was hot enough. I saw Rowley looking at the diving board so I said "I dare you to jump off the diving board" so Rowley did but he missed the deep end and landed in the kiddy pool. At least the board was not too high. But I bet it would not hurt as much if he hadn't went head first.
The life guard told us we had to leave the pool. But I said "we are paying customers and that we should have the right to swim in the pool". It didn't go exactly like that. I begged on my knees he said "no"
How can someone be that heartless? I can tell you, that guy. I got so mad that I went to the front desk and told them that they should fire the life guard, right on the spot. They threatened to kick us out of the hotel. I went back to the room and Mom asked what I was doing down in the lobby. I said "I was getting a snack" mom said "what happened to the snack?" I replied "I didn't have enough money" Mom just walked away. I think she felt bad that she does not give me enough money. It was 9:00 so I had to go to bed Mom said, but I was not tired so I went back to the pool. Rowley was fast asleep that made it easier to get out of the room. I wanted to get back at the life guard by using the fake vomit I found in Rodrick's suitcase. When the guy saw it he yelled. But it turns out some kid did vomit. I left because the life guard sat in it. When I got back no one had seen me sneak out. When I woke up I saw Mom and Dad looking at a map. I would know where we are going if I look at the map. I look and it showed a line to get to the local pool because it went so good the last time we went to the pool. Rowley was happy that we are going to Sky High water slides. It was weird; I thought Rowley would hate water for a long time. When we got there the water slides were gigantic. Even the baby pool had a water slide. I went to the highest slide and went down it. I was lucky that no one was in line. When I went down it was so cool. The water was heated and what happens is that you go fast down there is a ramp. I noticed Rowley was right behind me. I did not want Rowley to flatten me when we get to the bottom. There was a fork so I took left and Rowley took right. When I hit the water I made a titanic splash. Some water hit two kids and they got mad at me. I started to swim but they were gaining on me. I hopped out of the pool and into the next pool. Rowley was almost down when he landed he knocked the kids over. They left me alone for the rest of the day. Before the day was over we had to get to a new hotel. We are going to Canada. I can't wait to see a beaver.
