The next day, we left for New Mexico after we had lunch in San Francisco.

"We'll be stopping in New Mexico for dinner," said Dad.

"Sounds good," said Stacey.

"Are we actually staying here?" asked Dawn.

"Yes," said Dad. "We'll be there for tonight then we'll be heading for Texas in the morning."

New Mexico sounded fun, but there is one little problem: some place speak Spanish since that's their language. To be honest, that was not my favorite subject in school.

When we got in New Mexico, we went to go check in first at the campground. I noticed Kayla was helping Dad by speaking Spanish at the check in.

Then, we went to go eat at the Mexican Restaurant for supper. Some of us barely understood what the waitress was saying including me: She was speaking in Spanish. But Kayla & Kaylee understood it.

After we ordered, Kristy said, "How can you understand her?"

"Kaylee and I learned in school," said Kaylee. "We learned it at our old school back in New York."

That was when the food arrived. It was good. I like Tacos with Spanish rice. After dinner, we shared a dessert. When we got back to the campground, Kayla found a Spanish book while we hang outside.

"That also explains why you knew Spanish," I said.

"We got it from New York," said Kaylee.

"We both had straight As and Bs," said Kayla.

"You're better than me," I said. "I hated that subject."

"Since when?" asked Claudia.

"I thought you like all of the subjects," said Dawn.

"I do, but here's my little secret: I did struggled a bit in Spanish at the beginning," I said.

"Really?" asked Kristy.

"Luckily, it was during short takes," I said. "I had mostly Cs, but I'll take that than failing."

"We did help her out though," said Kayla.

"We also let her borrow that Spanish book," said Kaylee.

"That's a good thing," said Stacey.

"Even though my grades pulled up near the end, I liked French better to be honest with you," I said. "I understood French more than Spanish."

"Be prepared, you'll be having Spanish in high school," said April.

I am not thrilled about that part.

"When do they learn that?" I asked.

"I think it's either during 9th or 10th grade if I recall," said April.

"We can still help you if you need us," said Kayla.

"Even if we're still not in Maine yet," said Kaylee.

"Oh, that would be great," I said.

I liked that idea. Later, at 8:00 pm, we watched some Spanish movies that Kayla found on Youtube.

"Watching movies in Spanish can help," said Kayla.

We watched a few of them before we got ready for bed by 10:00 pm.
