Today-SOL 3/21/15

Today was pretty cool, for a couple of reasons. The first is, that I got to see my cousins again for the first time in two years. We had lunch with them, and while they are kind of annoying sometimes, they're still pretty cool. I also got to see my Aunt and Uncle, and they told us all about the place that they moved to (Portland) as well as getting to eat a super cool lunch that was like a big giant feast. My grandparents also came over, I jumped on the trampoline and played wii with my cousins, Logan and Rowan, as well as just talking, and it was fun.
Number two is that after lunch, Jack and I went to the Escape Room with Sam and Amelia Modest, and Amelia brought Sarah Hoffer. We all were locked up in a room with Sam's dad, and had to solve a crime where the granddaughter of a billionaire was captured and taken to a hotel. When the FBI came to try and get her out, the kidnappers took her away and strapped a ticking bomb to her. We had to figure out, using a couple of clues from the room where she was supposedly kidnapped, how to unlock some locks to find the girl and then finally unlock the final door to her and then try to disarm the ticking bomb. We had 45 minutes and got occasional clues. This thing had an 8% success rate with adults, so when we almost solved it, the guy was super impressed and gave us 5 more minutes to solve it, which we did. Even though we failed within the 45-minute time range, it was still super fun and we all felt smart, which is good. :) We WERE so close.
So yeah, it was fun.
