Party weekend

Saturday, was party night! In the morning, at around eleven o’clock, Mrs Whyte drove us to Brighton. On our way we had a great view on the football stadium of Brighton. That afternoon, a match was going to be played in this stadium. Brighton against another club (??). Louis and Rory were first going to give me a tour through Brighton. We first went to the Brighton pier. This pier is much different than the piers in the Netherlands. It looks like the pier of the Hague, however, it is covered with an attraction park. There is a ‘Scary Hotel’, an ice bar (even when it’s not summer -__-), a small casino, computer games, and a lot more! We played with some of the sportive attractions which was quite fun. We left the pier and walked into town. They toured me through the gardens of the palaces, with a great view on the palaces! Those were beautiful. The queen sometimes stays some days in those palaces. We walked on, and passed a really busy street which is very narrow and has lots of shops. Louis went into one of the shops. They sell lots of stuff in this shop including yoyos, diabolos, and skateboards. He knows the shop’s owner and talked to him for some minutes. We left the shop and had to walk quickly to the train station, because the train was going to leave in some minutes. When we arrived at the station, we found out that the football match was going to start in about fifteen minutes. We were in Brighton, and the match was between Fc Brighton and another club… So, all the fans were going by train to the football station. Everywhere, police men with dogs could be found. We were in the middle of the queue with lots of fans singing loudly. It was actually quite cool! We talked with some fans during our train trip. It was funny, because when all fans left the train in the station next to the stadium, there was nobody left in the train… Louis saw some friend, and smashed on the window. A police officer saw this and thought Louis wanted to break out of the train. He knocked on the window and looked angrily at Louis ;)! We returned in Lewes, and went to the paddock which is the grass field behind the school and in front of Louis’ house. We met with some friends of Louis from another school. At around four o’clock, we went by train to Brighton again. We met with some people in a graveyard. I went with some friends to McDonalds to have ‘cheap’ dinner and at around seven o’clock we went by bus to Maia’s (-------------) AMAZING party. Music, trampoline, drinks, and girls J. I don’t know any word which can describe the party! I don’t think I should tell much about the party… We were picked up at halve eleven (23:30).

The next day was a study day. We had big lunch which many British families have at Sundays. Families will have a big warm lunch, but only have a snack for dinner. I studied till about five o’clock. At five we left to go to the cinema. Louis, his two brothers and I wanted to go to John Carter. The parents wanted to go to an ‘older people movie’. They called it that way aswell. We would meet after the movie in a café in Brighton because the parents’ movie finished earlier than ours. We drove back without doors…??? They have those doors which automatically close or open, so we drove home with the doors open XP.
