Connecticut - Doors Still Open at Yale?

Have you ever been at a beach where the sand is so hot you can't stand on the top for more than fifteen seconds? I did in Connecticut. I'll tell you more about it, as well as New Haven, Rainforest Cafe, and Bishop's Orchard.

The Connecticut beach was really fun and hot! My mom and Levi buried me in the sand. It took an extremely long time to get all the sand off me, but it was worth it. The water was as cold as a refrigerator, but it felt good on a nice, hot day. I was trying really hard to catch little fish, but they were way too fast. I went in the water so deep that I had to tread water. We could also see Long Island in New York across the sound. The beach was awesome!

New Haven was pretty fun. We toured Yale. People still go to college there. I did not know that. Yale was huge! We didn't even have enough time to go everywhere. We did have other things to do, but still Yale is huge.

In New Haven we also stopped by a store that sold toe shoes. Toe shoes are shoes that have fingers for your toes. It's supposed to be like bare feet. They're basically all purpose shoes because you can do everything with them: go in the water, run, and walk. I really want them.

In every state my goal is to see an animal. In Connecticut my animal was at Rainforest Cafe. I know there are no real animals, except the fish, but we were really desperate. Rainforest Cafe's atmosphere was awesome, but their food and service wasn't the best. Every half an hour the gorillas make noise. I used to be really scared when I was five. My food was okay, but in hindsight we should have gone somewhere better to eat.

Bishop's Orchard was delicious! We were able to pick delicious red raspberries. My favorites were the ones that were barely ripe. They're really sour that way. Levi and Mom liked them mushier. I think the mushy ones are really gross.

In conclusion Connecticut was pretty fun. The beach, New Haven, and Bishop's Orchard were fantastic, but I don't want to live there. By the way, my feet are still burning from the sand at the beach.
