North America Adventure, Chapter Two

 Chapter Two

James went bass fishing with Howler and Lightning. First he found a beaver lodge (because lots of fish live in beaver ponds), then he made a few hoops about an inch wide and tied them to a tree branch with a few strips of deer skin. After that, he carved a wooden hook with his knife. Then he tied a long strip of deer skin to the hook and pulled it through the hoops that he made. He put a worm on the hook, then threw the end of the skin strip with the hook into the water, and then he waited, holding the other end of the skin strip. He felt a tug on it, and pulled the skin strip. The other end came out of the water with a large mouth bass dangling from it. James caught tree others, two small mouth and one large mouth, and then went home.

Galapagos Adventure, Introduction

Peter was going on a trip to the Galapagos islands (a group of islands about 2,600 miles away from America, famous for having many animals on it that only live there, such as the Galapagos tortoise and the Marine iguana). One night, he woke up in the midde of a storm, with his boat sinking! The boat didn't have any lifeboats, so Peter grabbed a gun, bullets, gunpowder and a bag of corn, threw a barrel overboard, dived in after it, and swam to one of the Galapagos islands that was nearby, resting on the barrel when he was tired. Unluckily, it was uninhabited (nobody lived on it), but he at least survived the storm. Two and a half years later, he lived in a large cave, had a pet Galapagos hawk (a large, brown hawk breed. The main predator of the Galapagos islands) called Flyer and owned a large cornfield. Galapagos Hawk

Going Sailing

Last holiday my family & I went sailing. First we got on a small boat, and then sailed to a bigger one, which we sailed on for about an hour. I got a weird feeling that I sometimes get on airplanes when the boat went over the waves. I hope we go again sometime!
