I was placed in Hamilton, Ontario. Hamilton has two malls, Jackson Square and Lime Ridge. Bob and Teresa (my host parents) have volunteered to keep Katey Beth and I for the summer. They’re both so nice. They have a daughter, Amy, who has a son of her own named Conor. He’s an awesome kid! He is very talkative and loves to play games. It’s fun to have him around because he’s a non-stop talker :). They have a puppy, he’s calm and very cute. They also have another student staying with them, she’s from Spain and her name is Marina. She’s here for college to learn English. Katey & I are teaching her Inuktitut and she is learning quickly. She is teaching us Spanish but it’s hard to speak with their accent.

On Friday, my supervisor Lorri Fox invited me to go to Wonderland with her and other staff and students. At first I didn’t get a chance to do any rides, but then at lunch one of the students, Danielle, asked me if I wanted to hangout with her and her friends in the afternoon. Danielle was so nice to invite me to spend the afternoon with her, she’s awesome! Her and I went on several rides, our favourite was called the Sledge Hammer, which we went on 4 or 5 times in a row! 🙂

Sunday, Bob took Katey, Marina and I to the forest, it was amazing and beautiful – however the bugs were gross. Marina’s teacher came to the house to meet the family. Bob and Teresa asked her if Katey and I could accompany them to Niagara and to see a baseball game. She said yes! 🙂 It was so nice of her to let us go along with them. It’s so great to have all these people who are helping us, I would like to thank them so much! 🙂
