A fun day

Today we and a bunch of the younger people in the family went to a recreation place. It was nice to get away, because I miss the open country that I am used to in the United States. Here in Lima about everything is concrete, and that is all I see. But this recreation place had lots of grass, and open space, and it was really nice. First thing we did was go swimming. I should have put sunscreen on before I did that, because I got burned. After that we all found a shaded spot in the grass, and had a picnic (we had brought food). After that a lot of us split up, and Eliana and I went with David (he was the youngest). Before long we came across a dirt track, and there was small ATV´s for kids. So I was glad to see that, and I wanted David to get on one, and he was very happy to do it. And that is what is in the photo, David on his ATV. A lot of people went slow, but he went fast. I saw him going pretty fast, and he took one of his hands off the handlebars, and was reaching for something in his pocket or something, and he swerved, and about hit the fence. And then when his ride was over, he came in a little fast, and almost went head on into the fence, but luckily someone was there to get him stopped in time. And I think it was just a little wood fence without any tires in that spot, so it wouldn´t take much to go through it. After that, we went to see some animals, because they had a small zoo. Then we went to a playground for a little bit, and then played some volleyball. And then we were ready to leave, because we were all hot. But it was a good day, and I think Eliana and I will be resting for the rest of the day.
