Most saturdays at my house (if I am home on saturday) are just spent either working or lazing around doing nothing, but not last saturday.
WE HAD SOOOO MUCH FUN!!!
So, Zachary, Tamara, Benjamin, and I decided to get out and do something this saturday. So we decided to take a bike ride. We hoped on bikes and took off on a ride planing on heading to a beach about (10 minutes or so away in a car). So we packed a few apples some shorts, a towel, and some water. We went riding along rather quickly, then I came to a hill and realized that my gears didn't exactly work, but it was too late now to turn back, so we kept right on going. Then it started to rain, and Benjamin wanted to turn back, but we just kept right on going. Then we came to a road with a down hill (finally), but when we got to the bottom of that you practally had to look straight up to see the top of the next hill, but we just kept on going. We finally made it to the beach after about 50 minutes. First we climbed a clif and threw our stuff behind this bush thingy. Then we all changed into shorts and played in the water, and found shells, and seaglass, and climbed all over sharp rocks, and cut up our feet and legs. Then we got bored playing on rockes, so we went to an actual beach and played in the sand and got really wet(it was raining part of the time, but it didn't make much difference, we were already pretty wet) , and so much fun stuff like. Keep in mind it is the middle of winter over here. So we were out playing in the water and these people would walk past in scarves and hats and give us really weird looks and stuff. We eventually had to pull ourselvs away from the beach and ride home. We were a little bit more wet on the way home, but it was fun even if it was mostly uphill the entire way.
Like I said IT WAS SOOOO MUCH FUN!!!
Zachary is going to put pictures up soon. So while waiting check out all of his other cool pictures.

Wow I would have been cold if I were you. But it might have been worth it to get the weird stares. You guys are such bad examples. That little kid was probably very content not swimming until he saw you. I love you Maria

Mary, it was worth it. Someday Tamara and I want to go down to the Frankston pier and just run adn jump off it just to see the looks on the fishermen (and other people sitting on the pier). We haven't done it yet though.
