California Life
On December 26, 2015 I was taking part of Red Dead Redemption on my Xbox in the morning when I got a call from my grandparents. Like always, I thought it was just about rides and other things like my dog when they broke the news to me that I was going to the Rose Bowl with my mom, Chris, Autumn!
But, when my sister heard, she wasn't as happy because she really wanted to go. She finally stopped yelling so I started to pack. I practically packed all my Iowa Hawkeyes stuff.
Assuredly, the day came that we went to the airport. The place was massive, a 7-4-7. I felt really sick on the way there and the way back.
All of us finally landed and our luggage was being delivered so we had the whole evening to ourselves. So, we went out to eat at Barney's. I got a ginormous hamburger called the Barney Burger.

So my mom and I hiked up. It was a really nice view of LA. After that, we had an evening to ourselves and the Santa Monica Pier was close by so we went on the Ferris wheel. Thankfully, the hotel also had a pool so I went swimming.
December 31 was when all of us went to the pier and I rode the roller coaster. The rest of the day was just walking around.
January 1 was the day of the Rose Bowl. Our crew woke up at 5am in the morning prepping for the game. Finally, we arrived at the parade, which was spectacular.
Then, we went to the game. The hat I got at the tailgating is really cool. Also, the seats I got were amazing and so was the stealth bomber. But, the Stanford fans weren't so nice. Sad to say, we lost.
The next day was our last in California so we rented bikes to get souvenirs, when I got another hat, and pizza. Rushed, we returned so we wouldn't miss our ride to the airport.
When we landed, the air outside was really cold. Before we left, we got our luggage which took forever and returned home.
To me, that was a once in a lifetime trip that I will never
