More from Ben

We are in Barra De Navidad. We are in a marina that is in front of a huge, fancy resort. They have 2 cool slides at the pools. One is super slow and one is fast. We had fun there with our friends from Vales Valeo (Sonia and Anna), Antipodes (Adam) and Sand Dollar (Nate, Kaley and Easton). While we are here there is fishing tournament going on. We saw many sailfish and a big marlin being lifted out of fishing boats. We also got to go to a cool Buffet at the hotel and we got SUSHI!  J            We are more than halfway through the trip. I have been thinking a lot about Seattle lately and am already planning a lot of stuff to do there when I get there. My mom says we will be there around June 1.

The Best Month of My Life

Everyone I haven’t been writing lately. So here is a update from me. We’ve been in this bay for 1 month . The bay is called Banderas Bay. First we were in La Cruz and then we were in Paradise Village (Nuevo Vallarta) for Christmas and New Year’s. My Oma and Opa (German for Grandma and Grampa)came to visit. For Christmas, I got a 3DS and a really good boogie board. I also got Pokemon X and Y. We’ve been doing lots of fun things, like getting to let go some endangered sea turtles. Then doing a tour of Puerto Vallarta. Then we did 10 ziplines in the jungle and swam in a cold river afterwards. It was where they filmed “Predator”. After that we did a water park. At the water park you could swim with dolphins. We got to do the Royal Swim. We got to ride on their fins and also we got to do the foot push. Their skin felt like leather. It was really cool. I am going to write in my blog every week now. I am also writing a journal every day here on the boat. 

Two dolphins are giving me a foot push!!!
