Scintific Summer

Summer

                         I had a great time this summer with my friends and family. We did all sorts of things like swim and go to amusement parks.  I also spent some time at home just watching TV and reading.   Of all the things I did this Summer, I liked going kayaking in France with my brother, uncle, aunt, and cousin the best.   It was so much fun we went twice.  The first time it was great because my aunt and I did not tip over our kayak or hit any rocks.  The second time I went kayaking with my brother I was not so lucky.  We hit almost every rock in sight on the Orb River and were lucky not to tip our kayak over a hundred times.  By the end of our second kayaking trip, we only tipped over once.   We tipped over when we hit a big rock that had bees all over it.  Marshall leaned out of the kayak to push away from the rock and the boat tipped over.   My brother thought it was funny when we tipped over at first.  But, then he got mad and said I jumped out of the boat.  I do not think so.  I was so shocked when we fell in the river and I could hardly breath.  Then I found out that my helmet strap was choking me.  I quickly fixed my helmet strap and grabbed our paddles before they floated away downstream.   My brother tipped the kayak back over.  This was not easy because we were in the middle of rocky rapids.  Oh well, I have to say I had more fun on the second kayaking trip.  The coolest thing that happened on the second trip was we found a message in a bottle.  I also saw all kinds of fish that were like a green color.  In conclusion, during kayaking I went through some rough times, but had a lot of fun and would love to go kayaking again.
