Hello, I am Oscar. I am thirteen, and I am from Fenton, Michigan.
We got to sleep in today, I woke up a bit earlier, and I was feeling tired.
Once we woke up, we had pancakes for breakfast that were made by Constantine, Peyton, and Tait. They were good, and once we finished, we were talking and excited about scuba diving. We rode to another boat on our dingy Junior. Once we got there, we got our gear and went to a sort of shallow spot, they taught us how to scuba dive, and we had some fun. Afterward, we had lunch and ate sandwiches. We then took the time to snorkel some mangroves after we learned a short lesson on the biome. Snorkeling was fun, and the boat ride over to the mangroves was awesome. Our dinghy that we borrowed from another ship was broken, so it kept flopping around, and we smacked against so many waves while we drove against the wind. After snorkeling, we took our showers, got into some fancy clothes, and went into town for a quick stop to get fruit, water, and snacks for the rest of the trip. Our snack choices, while unhealthy, were awesome, and we split the cost amongst us all. We headed back, got our phones, called our friends and family, then we turned in our phones, and we then headed to the barbecue. We got a photo of us at an old telephone booth at the dock through Tait’s phone. We headed to the barbecue, and we got some food and drink. At the barbecue, there was a DJ, and we danced on the stage, he played some songs. I took a couple of breaks here and there to talk to people and relax. Grayson got a T-shirt from the DJ, so that was cool. It was a nice red and yellow pattern with a tiger on the front. We then headed back as a group and talked about what we all did at the barbecue and what kind of people we met. I then started this blog, and I’ve gotten this far, and after I finish this, the day will cease. My friends and I are ready to sleep, excited for tomorrow. With this, I shall end this blog. This was day seven, end.
