Hi!
My name is Susan. I'm a Cadette Girl Scout in Troop 9204. Last summer, my troop
went on a big trip to Atlanta, Georgia with our cookie money. Earlier last year,
we voted on what we would do with the cookie money. Would we give our share of
the money to the council and bring home cool prizes, or would we keep our share
and go on a big trip? We voted to go on a trip.
At
the beginning of summer vacation, my mom and I woke up early one morning. We got
dressed and packed our bags. We were ready to go to Atlanta, Georgia. My troop
met up in a church parking lot where we sorted out who would ride in what
vehicle. After that, we drove to our destination.
Once
we arrived, we all went to Subway and bought ourselves a sandwich. Then, we went
to Stone Mountain. It was so cool! We climbed all the way to the top. The view
was amazing! You could see downtown Atlanta from there! We all climbed back down
the way we came up and ate dinner on the grass in front of the mountain. Once it
got dark, we got to watch a cool laser show on the side of the
mountain.
By
then it was late, so after the show we drove to the hotel, checked in, and fell
right asleep. The next day, we checked out and went to The World of Coca-Cola.
We had a great time! We even got to try foreign sodas! Afterwards, we walked to
the Georgia Aquarium. I loved the beluga whales!
Finally,
we finished our trip off with a walk through Centennial Park, and ate lunch at
the CNN center. Overall, I had a fun time on our trip. I hope my troop can sell
a lot of cookies this year so we can go on another fun
trip!
