LAST DAY ON THE BEACH
Today is the last day for me here on the coast of Argentina. And I feel sad beacause its the last time I get to see my grandparents for a year or maybe forever, so I fell really bad about that. I´m going to miss this place, all the culture and the beach, and my grandparents. And sometimes I feel like staying here to live, but I cant. What I miss the most is seeing all the people sitting at cafes drinking teas and facturas(cofebread), and the beach life. I really had a fantastic time here I really enjoyed it so much, and I hope that I can come back some day. well thats all that I have to say and Ill write to you when i´m in Buenos Aires where I will be spending my last days here and preparing for my voyage home so untill next time weep.

Mundo Marino
Yesterday(tuesday) I went to a place called Mundo Marino, or in english Marine World. It was so cool because I got to see an orca and dolphins in a show where they did tricks. For example on dolphin did 2 front flip and touched a ball at the same time. And also saw a show about sea lions and a wallrus, the wallrus was huge tall than me it seemed like. And at the end we got to feed them. We also went to a basement where They showed a little movie about the animals in the ocean and how we have to keep it clean and not dirty. Then they opened this big door with windows that showed the big water tank with the dolphins being fed and looking at us. Then we went on a safari expedition with a tractor and bunch of seats on the back. It was cool because since it was just my family and another family, the person told us more than on his regular tour. So thats all that I did on tues day, and I had a really great time their too so untill next time.

New years eve
Hello again I want to tell about the best and worst New years eve that I had. Well it all started good, I had bought alot of fireworks (that where illegal) to blow up on midnight. At 9 o´clock we had the best bbq that I have ever had. We had sausages, ribs, t-bones, salad,fruitsalad, and bread. Then at 11:30 we got in the cars and head off to the beach cause thats where everybody on the coast of Argentina spends there New years eve. Then when we got there my grandpa cant walk so fast and there was 5 minutes till new years, so me and my aunts and uncle wanted to move ahead to set up the fireworks really quick in time to set it off. so we said that we will meet each other in avanue of San Bernado at the beach. So when we got there we waited and watied and they didnt show up then we heard every body yelling, and it already struck midnight. So what suck is that I spent new years eve without my mom and sister and grandma and grandpa. When we finally found each other which was 12:30 we all got mad at each other and when we went home everybody was in a crappy mood. well untill next time and sorry that I havent been writting Its just I have been so caught up in science and english cause they gave me the most stuff that i have been trying to finis it all. so untill next time.

Christmas Day
Happy hollidays Mr. Mckell and Seely, I hope your family had a good christmas. So Im going to tell you how I spent my Christmas Eve and Christmas. On Christmas eve (over here the call it noche buena), was just like a regular day. I wasnt really excited for Christmas because my mom said that we were only going to get 1 present each (we usually get 3)cause everything here is of bad quality and they sell it really expensive. So for the rest of the day we just messed around untill 9:00 which we then had a bbq. And at 12:00 almost every one on the coast did fireworks to celebrate Christmas. And then on Christmas we opened presents and my aunt and uncle came over to spend the rest of the vacation here with us. Well that was the holidays for me and Ill write to you about new years next time. so till then.... oh ya, I was trying to put the pictures on this computer and I needed the program for it which we left. So would it be ok if when I come back that I bring the pictures and show you. so comment me on that k c-ya

Life on the beach
When I came to the beach on friday I was happy Because we where going to be at the beach every day. Well it turned out so far that Friday and saturday were cold and super windy. So today(Sunday) was hot and little wind,so the water was green which was cool(the other days it was brown). We also went to all the stores that are on the coast. Also during this month theres is alot of tourism so the locals set up concerts,parades, and stuff like that so that they could enjoy for free. well thats all thats happened for now on the beach. so untill next time. Here on the beach has changed me alot. For example at my grandparents house their shower has like a little strand of hot water when you turn it on so we have to take cold showers which sucks. And my personality and the way I look helps me to because im brown so they think that I speak castillano thats what the call it untill they start talking to me then they start thinking that this kid isnt an argentine. And for my personality because with my politeness and something(I dont know what is)all my aunts and girls think im funny. so ya ill try to get pictures in next time its because my mom ran out of batteries so I will try to get some next time goodbye

Review of last week
Last week was when I first came to my destination (Argentina). So now Im going to do a review of it. When I landed in Argentina I started getting butterflies in my stomach because of my first time coming into a new place, and meeting my realatives that I havent seen for 8 years and new ones that I havent seen either. Then on Tuesday my aunt took us out to the city to see how it was like and for my mom to see how it changed. Then on Wendsday, Thursday where pretty much the same we went to the mall and went window shoping and shopping,and let me tell you that mall had so many stores that I diddnt know. The only thing that I did know was Mcdonalds. On Friday I went to my Aunt Dora´s house which was nice because we had a bbq. But not like any other bbq we had sausagĂ©, and solidified cows blood and cow intestines and cow ribs.That was a new experience for me and the intestines where tasty but a little dry. On saturday My Aunt took us for a boat ride on a delta,if you dont know what that is its a river that splits up and forms a bunch of little islands and then reunites into 1 river again. It was cool to see all the islands. Then later on the day my Uncle Abel came over with her daughter, and also my moms old friends from high school came over too and had a get together that lasted till 3 am. Then on sunday we did nothing just stayed at my aunts house...oh ya I forgot we went to a little market and bought lots of firecrackers, and m-80s and bottle rockets. just a bunch of little fireworks that pack a loud expolsion, the good thing too was all thouse fire works where cheap so we bought alot and there llegal. On Monday we went to my uncle Abels house to visit. And today (Tuesday) we went to my Uncles parents house. So thats life so far in Argentina and I hope more exciting stuff will happen later on, untill next time
