My Corona Time

Avri Mendelson

My teacher asked me to write about my “Corona time”, so here it is;

My family decided to take part of my mothers family tradition and learn how to ski. We all practiced for a one month before we finally flew to Bulgaria for the first and not last family Ski vacation!.

A day before the flight I felt sick at school and I went home. I think it happened because I was excited and nervous about the flight.

I was very lucky because I felt better the next day.

I flew to Sofia the capital city of Bulgaria with my father Amir (he is a kids doctor), my younger sisters Yeela (nine years old, third grade at school), Tamara the youngest – crazy and brave sister ,(first grade at school) and my grandmother Nurit Alcalay , she is seventy years old and in a great fitness.

We landed in Sofia and took a very very big car ,we drove to Borovets the ski resort. We got a nice hotel but we arrived too late So we wait for the next day for our first ski day in my life.
At the next morning, my father read the newspaper and reviled that doctors arn’t permitted to leave Israel from that day, We were very very lucky !!!!
We started skiing and had lots of fun. So we trained ski from the morning till night and more then that they offered night ski till  10 p.m. it was great to see all the lights on the snow.

On the last day we left the ski resort to Sofia there I found a special big climbing wall. It was beyond ours dreams all the tracks changed every five minuets and there was lot of special lights. When we left we went to eat at the big mall at KFC.

The last hour we spent at the supermarket to get a present and breakfast for tomorrow morning flight. I enjoyed it when i found a special shop and my father and I bought a very good candy.

On the next day we woke up at 4 a.m. and went to the airport, we arrived to Israel and all of us had to be in quarantine. 

After a week, I understood that the schools, climbing walls , horse farms and all of the places that I usually spend my time at are closed.

I was very bored and disappointed. I started to find staff to do and decided to start learning to ride a Unicycle. At start  I bought the Unicycle from someone in Kadima Zoran I went there with my mother and father and I was very happy. I trained about three days and understood the rules to ride and now I can do it perfectly.

After that I and my father built a hang board for training climbing at home. I can train my fingers and make them stronger.  

I looked for another new sports to do for avoided my boredom.

I went with my grandmother to a short bike treks about 12 -25 k.m. 

Then I decided to build a ramp for bikes. I started at few pieces of wood and right now I’m building a large one with the  help of my  father.

I didn’t meet my friends but I started to think about the dog which I’m going to have and about my BAR MITSVA.

OHHH I almost forgot to write that I watched a lot of Netflix  movies and TV Shows for example : Babe, Friends , Last dance , Win the wilderness, Brooklyn 9-9, ghost basters and more…

AT the Corona time I decided to be a vegetarian and stop eating meat. I eat majadra. nuts, and trying new shakes with protein. 

I started to plan my room in my new house, that will be ready about one month it is a long time for waiting. 

I plan to put a big table for computer, a place to build tiny staff and place for studding. I also  plan to have big bed and large cabin for my clothes and games. 

I will place a big climbing wall outside in our garden and I will have a place for grow a vegetables and fruits as tomato, pepper , potato,

pumpkin, Sugar cane, cucumber, herbs, bamboo, water melon, onion, green onion, Kyle, carrot, sun flower , artichoke, whit eggplant, pea,

Allovera, beet, melon, broccoli, corn and baby leaves. I want to be able to eat from my garden organic food and not to buy it.

I plan to built tiny float ramps for skateboard from wood with my father. 

I also built a bicycle trek out of my house , near our street, that have hills and hols in the ground. I built it with my cousin Kfir, Yeella my sister and Tamara my second crazy sister.

At the Corona Time I went with my family every day to the fields near my house, few times we did a picnic there, or just walk, ride and we found special ekaliptus tree that it was great to climb on it. I think I know the fields like I know my house. Once we went there and I saw a snake, and at another time terrible strong rain washed us all. It was fun. 

That was all what I did in Coronas time. 

I hope it won’t happen again. I admit that I had some good time and time to do special things and I understand that I need more free time in my life to do what I really love to do more.
