A fort here and a fort there

The walking honeycomb fortress

by Conrad

My fort was called the walking honeycomb. My fort took three days to make (but I didn't stay for the whole day). I had fun at my fort and was sad when I had to leave. My fort was in Spanish Water in Curacao. I had other forts in places like Clay Rock in Grenada and our bathroom fort on the boat.

How Godzilla came to be

By Conrad

Years ago, two boys named Conrad and Mark were trying to catch a lizard. They dug traps and tried to catch the lizards with their hats. Then Conrad had an idea and he said, "Let's go to town." An hour later Conrad and Mark were in a candy store. They got bubble gum. Then Conrad said, "We could make Godzilla!" They caught a lizard and Mark blew a bubble with the gum. The lizard ate the gum and grew. That's how Godzilla came to be.

The End.

Whose creation? There are always games too!

Today for school we are making up our own food monsters.

My monster is called a Strawberry ant. Here is a description  of it. Size: 6 feet long, 3 feet tall. Where to look for them: The great tree of food, the biggest tree in food land. Pets: Straw berry ant minis are good pets and are fun. History: I bred a live strawberry and an ant. How to find the great tree of food: Once you are in the jungle it is easy to find. It is the biggest tree in the jungle.

Minecraft is a computer game. It is all cubes and there's creative and survival mode. I always make my houses tree houses or in a clearing because in the shade it's always a little scary.

Angry birds go is (as you would probably expect by the name) a racing game. All the games that I have and  my creations are fun!

 

Chum and chum and fish

Black tip reef shark

We are in the Tobago Cays Marine Park. It's like being back in the Bahamas because the water is so clear. We took this picture when we were at the beach. We took the boogie board and decided to go snorkeling when we saw a stingray. We also saw the butterfly fish that Mark took this picture of.

After that, Dad saw the first black tip reef shark. A man was cleaning fish and dumped some fish guts in the water. The sharks, stingrays, and fish smelled it and the seagulls saw it. They started a little feeding frenzy. The guy that was putting the chum in the water said there was a 7-foot white tip reef shark in the harbor.

Southern stingray

Star pufferfish

He's saying, "Yea, it's snowing with sand!"

Laughing gulls

The brittle star is regenerating a leg. At first I thought it was dead but after about 5 minutes it started moving around. I yelled to Mark to bring the camera and we took a picture.

A swing made out of a fender!

This morning after school, Dad told us he had a surprise for us. At first Mark thought it was going to be a toy but it was the fender swing. We played for about 10 minutes and did silly things like twisting each other around. Our legs would get tangled up and we would walk around on our hands with our feet stuck to the fender until we fell off. It happened it to Mark first accidentally and then we did it on purpose because it was funny.

Jet-Pack Joy Ride

 

Hi! This is our favorite game when we don't have Internet (Jet-Pack Joy Ride). We also have a video of how the machines work and what they are called. I hope you like our pictures and our blog post! We might make some more posts about Jet-Pack Joy Ride. We might even make a Ninjago post. It's about a ninja that we like.

Go pets no pets and more pets

The other day we let Hermity and Crab Claws go. When we let Hermity go, he looked like gel. Maybe it was because he was still molting. Mark's was red (Mark's above). We were very sad to leave them. Now I want a fish! At noon Dad played volleyball. We were in Georgetown.

Caves today

By Conrad

Did you know that hermit crabs can live in caves? Today we went to two caves. This what the first cave was like: it was a deep cave, it was an active cave, and like most caves it had bats. This is what the second cave was like: we saw 3 hermit crabs, even more bats, and there was a second cave underneath.

 

This is the biggest ghost crab we have caught. He was not happy to be captured.
