More from Ben -"Having Fun in La Paz"

Having Fun In La Paz (I wrote this with my friend Ben Dillard)

Last night I had a sleepover with Easton and a new friend named Ben Dillard. It was very exciting because we came from Sand Dollar to my friend’s boat Sea Otter and ate sugar coated elephant ears (a type of sweet), called “Bunuelos”. After the sugar rush we did plants vs. zombies except the other Ben’s( big Ben’s) sugar rush didn’t end till later. Once Ben’s parents got back , they crashed the party and sent us to bed. WE DIDN’T EVEN HAVE TIME FOR PICTIONARY! Next time I hope we get to play Pictionary.

The day before the overnighter we went swimming. We played Marco Polo and sat in the hot tub. The only down side is that there was an occasional fly or moth floating at the top. GROSS!

Overall La Paz was one of the most fun places I have been.  

This is from a couple days ago.  More later.  We are trying to get a schedule for Ben to blog.  he is reluctant.  

In La Paz today my friend Ben, Easton and I slept on Easton’s boat. It was fun we all did homework together. We studied Mexico and la Paz. My study was the history. Did you know that they didn’t settle until 1830?  Today we went to a place to eat it was fun. We made an awesome sand castle there. When we left we walked down the street when we heard someone calling us then we looked back and there was the owner of the place holding our dog .Tomorrow we’re going to my friend’s boat. I can’t wait!

Bay of the Dead

Sorry I haven't been writing lately. I did the Baja HaHa.  The first party was fun at Bahia Santa Maria. We went wave surfing. We had a really good time there. I thought  it was the best party. Today we went snorkeling. We went to the reef it had brain coral and trumpet fish and other cool fish.We stayed there for a half an hour. I swam to my friend Easton's boat we swam there for 15 min. Then we swam back to my boat and stayed there for 20 min. Then we checked out the reef. Then we took my friend back to his boat for lunch. I love it here.

Oceanside

In Oceanside, California. Tomorrow I am going to see my friend Easton. He is doing the same thing as me only that his family is doing it for two years. They are in San Diego. I went to Disneyland four days ago.  When we got in we did Splash Mountain they took a picture of us it is funny look at me and then look at the guy in the back.dad says that it is his happy place.. then we did Pirates of the Caribbean then I started not feeling good but we still went on an Indiana Jones ride that made me want to throw up. The Indiana Jones ride was so cool but you went side to side so much. We went to Tomorrowland. It was awesome. We did the Finding Nemo ride. It was cool. Next we went to Autopia and me and Max and Sam got to drive.  Then we got some food. And then we went to the Star Trader store and we  all got some thing there. I made  two droids and I named them Benny and Phil.

My brother got a new case for his phone and my sister got a Minnie Mouse that she dresses him up.

Hi. Sorry I haven't been blogging but I have been busy. We went to Long Beach and went to visit the Queen Mary.

When we were there we also saw a Russian Scorpion submarine and I got a necklace with a scorpion in it.

Me my dad and my brother went on a scary tour of the bottom of the Queen Mary ship. I was kinda scared.
Right now we are anchored at Catalina Island. It has crystal clear water and we went swimming this morning and it was fun. Just a little bit ago we went swimming again and saw an octopus and a lot of awesome fish. After we went swimming this morning, we saw a seal play near our boat. Then we saw a dolphin species called Reese Dolphin.

We were on are way to marina del rey when we saw these dolphins there must have been 200 of them!!.
That was awesome I cant wait to see them again .I am in marina del rey . today my brother and mom left my mom is going to florida and my brother is going to seattle. So it is just me dad and my sister . Earlier today me and my mom taught my sister ( who is 3 )how to swim.

We are in Smugglers Cove off Santa Cruz Island now in the Channel Islands. We are about to go on a hike.  The waves a big and we are on anchor. I am kind of sea sick but otherwise I’m good. This is an abandoned farm on the island and there are olive trees we can see. There are a lot of boats anchored here, too. There is a ship wreck here too but we cant see it because it is under water.

In Ventura, California

It's super windy today. I'm going swimming because the waves are really big!! Tomorrow "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2" comes out and I really want to see it. I really miss my friend and also if you don't know me you can still comment on my blog, just please don't swear. We are at the Ventura Yacht Club and I really like it here. I got a new game on my iPod Touch. It is called Terraria. Max played it too so he helps me. It is really cool. It is like Minecraft but better. School has been kind of fun lately. I've been playing with photo booth too. I'm also helping my dad de-rig a J24. He got to race on it last night.

In Santa Barbara

I am blogging today because I have to write some stuff for school. If you want you can skip this. You won’t miss anything. I have to write a short composition about this New School Year. This year is different because I am being home schooled on my boat. I like school so far.  My favorite subject so far is mythology. Science takes a long time but it is fun. Being homeschooled is fun because after you are done with your work for the day you can swim or go to a beach. I do miss my friends a lot. It is fun to have not to drive every day to school. It is fun having my mom as a teacher. Its hard to concentrate sometimes when your little sister is bugging you but other times my sister can be nice. And another cool thing about home schooling is that it usually takes 2 hours.

Morro bay

In Morro Bay now it is super sunny. We went to a small aquarium and got to feed a seal and three sea lions. On the way there we went into a cool shop that sold ninja, samurai, and regular swords. It even had wolverines claws!! They are so cool. We had a over-nighter last night. It took us 17 hours to get here. I slept outside with my dad and Max. It was cold. Before bed, we watched the movie Surfs's Up.

Monterey Bay

Yesterday we left Half Moon Bay. It took us all day to get here. It was 60 miles. We played five games and my favorite was The Five Crowns card game. It was super foggy. Just now a sea gull landed on our dock with a crab in its mouth and bit it in half. There are a bunch of seals here they are loud and really annoying. Our friend Chris gave us a whole bunch of Simpson Halloween specials me my dad and my brother Max who also has a blog watched four of them last night before going to bed. Soon, after our schoolwork, we are going to walk to the aquarium.

P.S.  Max's blog is bigmaxinmexico.blogspot.com
