Slurpee Competition


Last week I went to Petro Canada to get a slurpee. I wanted to see if Petro Canada slurpees were better than Seven Eleven slurpees. This is what I thought about their slurpee.



Bad

  •  only 4 flavours (blue crush and 7up)
  •  2 flavors were out of order
  • hard to turn lever and you have to turn it back to stop it
  •  no lids that fit the large cups
  •  large is a Seven Eleven medium
  •  not as icy
  •  melts faster
  •  tasted good but extremely sour


Good

  •  cheaper than Seven Eleven
  • closer for us to walk to

Book Review : On the Road Again! - More Travels with my Family

On my first week of summer vacation I read a book called On the Road Again! More Travels with my Family.  It was written by Marie-Louise Gay and David Homel.  I picked up this book from the library because my teacher read us the first book in the series and I really liked it.  It's about a family who really likes to travel and they do it a lot.  They go on all these weird trips where no one else would usually go.  The kids don't ever want to go there but when they get there they always end up loving it and not wanting to leave.



I liked this book because it's funny and I like to travel too.  I would definitely recommend this book to kids who love to read and to kids who don't like to leave!

But first, you should read the first book in this series, Travels with my Family.  It's really good too!
