one word... WHALESHARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sooooo coooooolllll!!!!!!! i wish i could have spent the whole day with these mythical looking beasts of the sea!!!! We have left la Paz and are leaving Los Muertos, And are going to cross the sea of Cortez today! Can't wait! Talk to y'all soon

la paz

yesterday my mom made all of us go into town for a "field trip", it was no bueno, first off it took all day and then Sam was making the devil look like a saint, meaning she was super crazy and screaming all the time! Thank god for cabs because I was not about to walk all the way back from town to the marina. Btw yesterday sucked. Next off today I spent all day writing and doing school so I’m not in the mood for writing all pretty like so this blog will kind of be a venting session, I thought that would be OK sense everyone else is doing it. I am also kind of pist that I dropped our key into the water so getting a new one is super expensive.... not a fan of that life, on the bright side I got to spend a little bit of time with my mom... so all in all it kind of sucks, but now that I’m done venting I’ll be straight for a bit and tell all y'all what’s up, first I’m in la Paz and its nothing special because I have went into town once. Also I promised my mom that I would write a long blog entry. So I’m doing it. last but not least Shana from sand dollar came up to me and asked me if I would like to do this for more than a year or am I glad that it will end in a year, I answered by saying if the company changed I would be happier, which is true if my friends and I were doing this it would be sooooo much more fun and I think that ben and Sam are slowly but surely destroying all sanity that I still cling to. So I’m going to come back up to Seattle for a week or two soon just to regain some brain cells that have popped out of frustration at my siblings, but I got to love them, because at some points there really cute and fun, they are also a constant reminder to not have children until I have enough time to deal with them

          On a completely different note, I am finding that I hate mosquitos even more… they are everywhere and I am being bitten all the time! It’s crazy! I didn’t even believe they could eat so much! But we did get a bug zapper… it is one of the best inventions ever and as soon as I get my own house I’m going to get one of those bug zappers with the light that brings them in and then zaps them and I’m going to sit on my porch and watch as my enemies die in front of me!!!! It’s a little intense but I hate those stupid little things with an undying rage!!!!!!

          I am also really craving video games…. I really miss them,  I feel like I am missing so much by being down here without any internet and video games… it really is a horrible feeling, but I’m not only talking about getting behind on video games… I’m going to get back and I feel like everyone will have going places and I doing things and I feel like I’m going to fall behind, but I’m keeping my head up and trying to do my best in not giving a @$%&! And I’ll just have to keep it up for another half year… I also don’t know what to ask for, for Christmas so I can keep my mind of stuff like that so I’ll get by but it’s going to be hard but the experience is worth it. I am having so much fun with sailing and learning all sorts of things. But I will say that it seems like yesterday that I set off from Seattle and started my sail down the cost and yet it is almost Christmas… it is weird, I have no concept of time or date or anything like that it’s like I’m one of the lotus eaters… I just don’t have a reason to keep track of stuff like that anymore, it is truly the weirdest feeling, I am so used to depending on date and time that when I realize that I don’t have a clue I kind of feel lost and confused but at the same time I feel like if I don’t know it then I don’t need to find it out, which is the exact opposite from how my life used to be like, you know what they say in with the out in with the new,  but that pretty much raps up this blog entry so I’m going to start taking more pictures with my phone so I don’t have to write as much because I don’t like the act of writing but sometimes I like the product that I can create but I will never right in length for pleasure! That is for sure!!!! So to all of you that are reading my blog right now know that I really don’t like putting my feelings and life in writing so your welcome internet!!! Another post that will stay in your archives until the internet gets way to big and implodes... but until then this will always be around love all of ya! And Mom, Marcus if you go and count all the words in this post you will come to notice that I am a little short of a thousand word so don’t freak out at me it’s not like this is a school assignment that will decide If I pass or not

slowing down.

We have finished the Baja ha-ha in first, we are no longer rushed to go to different ports and have deadlines. We are finally swimming and relaxing every day, we are finally done with the constant pushing and we are relaxing. We are also putting the spear gun to use. I have caught to fish so far and they both tasted great!

We are also experiencing good company with our good friends sand dollar, they are going down the cost with us and we have somewhat bonded, we are trying to stick together. I am also slowing down on the blog posts. If you follow my blog you know that I’m not the best at keeping you guys current, well I have decided to slow down on my posts... I really don’t like feeling obligated to right about stuff I do all the time! So I’m going to slow down and take a break.
