Term reflection
I thought this enterprise thingy was quite fun except it became a bit boring at times because there was so much work to do. I thought the muffin bakery and the designing cellphone thingy was awesome because you can do your own things and you can create stuff that looks cool. I wish the holidays would come sooner though!!

Camping in the pine forest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday, Summer, our cousin and I went camping! We walked to the other side of the bay and set up our tent in the pine forest While it was still light, I started to make dinner using a penny-stove (a small tin stove that runs on Methylated Spirits). We had noodles and fish for dinner. It was yummy. We went into the tent to read a bit (as it was getting dark) and Summer went to sleep early. Eventually, I nodded off to sleep as well.
In the morning, I cooked some porridge with the penny stove for breakfast. I was a bit messy, and spilled a bit, but it tasted alright! We ate it in our cups. I hope we can go camping again soon!

Pizza oven
It is sad, because we haven't had the pizza oven for 3weeks now! I hope we will fire up the pizza oven again this weekend, because I can't wait to have our own pizza again. We ate all the bread that we made in it last week and Mum had to make a batch of bread in the oven. I hope we can do LOTS of pizzas!

Sailing with the dolphins!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday, the wind was absolutely perfect for a wind surf, so Dad and I went out on the two windsurfers. We got all the way out of our bay and were sailing among the mussel farms when we spotted some big splashes up ahead of us. Me and Dad went to check them out. The big splashes turned out to be a whole pod of bottle nose dolphins!!!!!!! We shot back into the bay with the dolphins close on our heels (dolphins like to follow boats)to tell the others about them. The dolphins really liked the windsurfers, so they followed us quite shallow. Summer wanted to touch one of them, so she went swimming, but was too slow- the dolphins were already swimming out of the bay again.

Sailing
The day before yesterday, Our cousin, Dad, Summer, & I all went sailing together on our two windsurfers and two P-classes! There wasn't really that much wind and we didn't go very fast, but there was the occasional gust which made us shoot forwards! We had heaps of fun sailing around the bay, and it was with reluctance that we went back in. When we went back in, it was dark, and it was only 6.00pm! I had the last shower, as everybody else was colder than me.

Grinding wheat
Yesterday, I had to grind lots of wheat to make flour. We needed the flour because we wanted to make LOTS of pizzas and bread for the Pizza Oven to cook! We put some salami and pineapple on some of the pizzas, but they were all delicious!

Sunny Day!!!!!!!!!!
Hi, in the last few weeks it has been raining almost non-stop! I suppose that I should be happy, because the hydro needed the rain badly, but I was still glad when the sun came out today. Our solar panels are doing well because it is a very bright day today! After school today, I want to go kayaking.
