         ---------------               
                                       
 We went on holiday on a little island 
called Jersey. We stayed with Uncle    
Gerald and Aunty Juliette. One day we  
went to Elizabeth Castle.              
 A few days later we went to Fort      
 Regent. Fort Regent is like a big fun 
fair.We walked in to town and got a    
cable car to Fort Regent.              
 In the ticket office they were        
selling arm bands which meant you      
could go everywhere free. Daddy bought 
us one each.                           
 First I went on the Galleon with      
Daddy. Helen and Mummy went to look    
around. Helen and Mummy found a little 
playground so when the Galleon was     
finished I joined Helen there. There   
were two slides one was very long and  
the other was not so long.             
 After the playground we found some    
Bumper cars and Mummy took some        
photographs and Daddy and Helen went   
on one car. I went in my own car. It   
was great fun so as there was not a    
queue we went on again.                
 Then we went inside to see what else  
to do. We went inside the hologram     
museum. In the museum there were       
coloured tiles and when you stepped on 
them they played a note of the piano.  
There was a wooden bridge with walls   
which twirled round in different       
colours. It was strange to walk        
across. When we got out we went into   
the Robin Hood Museum which had models 
in custumes with their names by their  
feet.                                  
 When we came out of that Museum we    
had hot dogs with onions and chips and 
coke except Helen who did not have     
onions.                                
 Then Daddy and I went roller booting. 
Helen wants to do this next year. Then 
Helen and I went on the jungle Gym     
which was an indoor adventure          
playground.                            
 Then we went back outside and I had   
some goes on a very long slide which   
you had to sit on a mat to go down.    
When I got to the bottom I was nearly  
flying.                                
   It was time to go I had one more go 
on the galleon all by myself. We       
discovered the Haunted room and all    
had a go on that. I was very tired.    
 We went back to town on the cable     
cars. We walked to Granny and Papa's   
flat. They gave us a drink and tea.    
Then Papa drove us back to Uncle       
Gerry's house. We got ready for bed and
snuggled down under our covers and     
went to sleep.
