Christmas




Four days ago, it was Christmas! I got lots of presents from my parents and Santa. I got 2 DS games. They were called Sonic Rush and Mario Party DS. Mario Party DS has over 70 mini games. I got little bags of stuff. When you throw them, they POP really loudly. I also got fishing supplies, truffles, tablets that turn into bugs when they're in water, 2 race cars, a white tiger, 2 dark Bakugan and a Bakugan card game + 50 Bakugan Ability cards and 70 Bakugan Gate cards. I had Christmas in South Port N.C.

Stay Cool,

Double Blog






Three days ago I saw bottle cap nose dolphins doing somersaults. They jumped out of the water 5 feet. I also caught my first fish. That day it was 70 degrees. I saw at least 41 pelicans. A few got fish. I've started a french class I have learned 13 french words. French is fun.



Two days ago we took a short trip. It was only 15 miles long. It took about3 hours. There was a military base. I saw huge and loud choppers. They were practicing maneuvers. Also, they were really fast and cool. That day my french words were chat which means cat and chien which means dog. We got to our destination around 12:38.

Stay Cool,

Cats Dants and Other Things







I am in Oriental N.C.
A few days ago I got batteries for my camera.When I turned on my camera it said please date and time. So I set my date to 12/4/2009. After I set my date I took a few pictures of my stuffed animals, Dante and Edna and Gigi. A lot were of the cats and Dante. My camera can hold 263 pictures ( movies count as five pictures). Two days ago I took about 15 pictures of the cats. I'm really happy my camera is working again.

North Carolina



I am in Elizabeth City North Carolina.We went through the Great Dismal Swamp. The Great Dismal Swamp is about 40 feet long. It was dug by slaves in the 1700's. That was 308 years ago! When we were going through the Great Dismal Swamp I saw some pretty weird trees. Some looked like Dr.Seuss made them. Some looked like ballerinas in tutus and others were growing out of the water. I saw a couple of trees that were very droopy and tall. Those trees also had little spike balls on them. The world's biggest Coast Guard base is in Elizabeth City. At the Coast Guard base they still make blimps. I like North Carolina.
