A Mexico Nightmare

I was in Yelapa. I really wanted to go back to the city (Puerto Vallarta). The only way to get there is by boat. So my dad said that it would be better if we went tomorrow but I said "I really

want to go through!” So we got on the boat (crammed with people) and went off. Well, my dad was right in the middle of the ride and it started to rain. There was no top on the boat so we were soaking wet and a hurricane was coming in so when we landed on shore there was a flash flood. Our car was floating away! We drove past some landslides and as my dad was helping to get a land slide away another land slide crashed down right in front of my eyes! And a boulder hit our car! We went to a hotel right before town (we had our dog with us!) because a land slide that was humongous it practically had 100 boulders, 120 trees and 1 ton of dirt!

My Boring Vacation

My summer vacation turned out to be boring. It was so boring that I didn't know what else to do. Luckily my dad put back the internet and told us that we could use it again. I like to go online almost every single day and I meet a lot of people. What is so interesting about it is that I can do anything I want to and so here I am writing my summer vacation down. Summer is one of the times where you can like just do stuff. Not like stay in your house and read, watch television etc. Which are boring things to do. Just to tell you what I think I'm not going to have a blast here in my house. All I do all day is play video games, watch television and log on internet a lot and do stuff. Sometimes I'd rather go out instead of staying home because I get bored easily. Beside I think I'm missing a lot out here.

The Scariest Vacation

Once, we went on a vacation trip that I will truly never forget. It was a few years ago. We went

canoeing, a couple of girls and me. While we were paddling, a girl leaned over to catch a minnow. Unfortunately, the boat tipped over! Nobody was killed, but a girl was nearly drowned, and another was nearly crushed by between the bridge and the heavy canoe. Both of them were all right. It was truly the scariest trip in my whole life.
