August 5

Today I woke  up and took an hour drive to the horses. We got to ride horses. It was bumpy and scary. My horse slipped out of control and was stubborn. Then we went to a restaurant and ate at 4:00. We were going to go to chimney rock but we heard thunder and everybody was tired. So we went back home. On the way we saw a lake with sand and slides. It was supposed to be a beach. When we got back home we ate dinner, watched the beginning ceremony of the Olympics and went to bed.
