Accessibility and sit skies in Fernie

Dear Readers

Accessibility in Fernie? Heck no! A lot of the stores in Fernie are not accessible. Fernie doesn't have the nice biker paths which forces me to walk beside the highway. I was all most hit once. At the ski hill they do have a sit ski but it's old and they can't put it on the chair lift. I wish we had a sit ski like the one in Kimberly. Fernie won't get a new one because there are only 2 disabled kids in Fernie including me. But thats no excuse is it? If we had a sit ski I would probably be up there all day! When my school used to go for skiing lessons I would have to stay home which made me feel terrible. Oh Kimberly next time I'm there I promise I'll go skiing.

canada place

Dear Readers

Today we went to Canada Place which is the spot we will be working at. There is this big center that all the reporters go to write their stories. I am so honored to do this. I am also very tired. I threw up the whole way to Vancouver. Yuck. It was my sisters muffins. Blahhhhhhh! I asked the pilot if he thought it was a rough ride and he said no! It totally was. Our room at the Hyatt Regency is BIG! It has a beautiful window that over looks the street. Tonight I'm meeting my sister Tabitha and we are eating the fancy Hyatt super. Now I'm going to meet Theresa Lalonday so bye bye for now. :)

Saturday and Vancouver

Dear Readers

On Monday we are going to Vancouver for our last studentslive meeting. I'm excited because I get my press pass on this visit. And Kate is going to be with me which will make me less anxious. I had to make a video for studentslive to get chosen. I had to redo my video over and over again because I couldn't get it right. I chose sledge hockey because it was very interesting. I learned that sledge hockey was created in a rehabilitation center in Sweden. I had to make a sledge hockey presentation. I think the best part of carrying the olympic torch is that i get to carry it with Kate. Please remember to sign up for studentslive.ca

Saturday, Sunday and Monday

Dear Readers

Sorry I haven't written in a while but I've been so overwhelmed. I've been forgetting things left and right. Saturday I went down town and got an exercise shirt. It is black and pink. Then we went for a tea. After that my sister came from Cranbrook and we played Super Mario Bros. Sunday I went to church and then I hung out all day. Today I have some music I have to do. Well bye for now don't blame me if I don't write.
