We went to California on a vication!!!

Sorry we haven't blogged in ages, school is almost here! I'm going into 6th grade Danika is going into 8th grade Jason is going to be a freshman, or freshmen? any ways Oliver is 18 and is going to be a senior! (he started school late cause my parents didn't want him being the youngest in the class.)
We just got back from California! We went to Emily 's wedding (Emily Olsen, Emily Dutta now!) She got married to a guy named Raj. After the wedding we went to a six flags water world it was fun for the most part! Then we went to the jelly belly factory in the morning and then we had to leave a little early so we could get to sanfransisco to catch the fary thing majig to Alkitraz. Unfortunately we left a little late from the jelly belly factory so then my dad had to speed a little. Then we finally got to sanfransisco and we were going to barely make it. But instead there was a dumb parade that we had to wait for! So we ended up missing the fary thing majig to Alkitraz but we still had a nother chance! The other chance was to wait in line for 3 hours about to take other peoples spots that missed the fary thing majig too! after a while two people left the line cause they didn't want to wait any longer so we got to move up a little more! then another fary came and people in our line got to go on it and we were the last 6 to get on the fary thing majig! So if those two people wouldn't have left in front of us then we wouldnt have been able to go on the fary thing majig to alkatraz! It was fun in alkatraz we took pictures I will have to blog them soon! When we got back from Alkatraz we went out to dinner with the Olsens, our family, Krista Herzer and Sarah Hoak, and Emily and Raj.
Then after that we stayed in a cabin with Chris and Mary Olsen for three nights near Shaver Lake. We went on a hike to a lake it was about two miles and we stayed there for a while, Mary was the only one who got in all of the way. Then on the way back me, Danika, Jason, Oliver, my Dad, And Chris climbed this mountain of rocks, we climbed about 1,000 ft I think it was a nice view, we could see whear we parked the cars! Unfortunately we didn't have a camera with us all the way up there.
On the last day me, Danika, Jason, my Dad, and Chris went on a morning run in the forest! The day before Chris and Danika went and the got home fine. But when we went Chris had his GPS and erased all of the tracks just incase if we got lost. When he did that it didn't quite erase all of the tracks so when we just about finished the run, we took a wrong turn! So Chris looked at the GPS and noticed that if we cut through the forest then we would get home real easy, instead those tracks were the ones that didn't erase. So we ended up jogging for three miles and walking four, until my dad and Chris let us ask for some help and call mary to come pick us up.
Later that day we rented a pontune boat for a half day and we took our own little tour of Shaver Lake. we jumped of this big rock and took pictures of us jumping off I need to show you guys some pictures. Jason did a backflip off the rock and he did a swan dive it was cool, we also snorkled? or snorcled? Oh well, Danika and I tried to "intertube" by laying on a blow up bed thing that you float on and then hold on to a rope that we found but it didn't exactly work for us but it worked for Jason we have a picture of him. Evrything that I told you might not havebeen exactly true but for the most part it is!!!!
