Day 2

Today I woke up around 7 am, and made myself breakfast. I ate some cornflakes, just like I did yesterday.

I went to my grandmother together with my mother and my brother. We went to the Grebbeberg and visited the memorial of the Dutch soldiers who fought there to protect our country in Word War II. It was very intimidating to see all those graves, especially when I saw at what age the soldiers died (Most of them died in their early 20s). In the guest room there were some old pictures of the soldiers and some equipment they had used.

Suddenly, it started to rain cats and dogs, so we decided to go and eat some lunch. We went to a Vandervalk Hotel to eat. I took an apple pie, which tasted really good. After we’d finished our delicious food we went to our car. On our way back to my grandma’s house, we drove a beautiful route through the countryside.

After we arrived at my grandmothers house, we talked a little bit before leaving for my home. We arrived at home at around half past 4. I went to my game console to play some Dirt Rally for around an hour. Then I ate some vegetarian Spaghetti. There were a lot of vegetables in the spaghetti which kind of replaced the meat, so it tasted good without it.

When dinner was finished I decided to watch some tv.

Today wasn’t too difficult, apart from the lunch. At lunch everyone ordered some meat which looked and smelled great, so the temptation was huge. At the end I stood my ground and ordered the apple pie, “to help the environment” I thought to myself.
