Back across Biscay

 

 

During our astonishing trip we saw some magnificent and majestic dolphins. They were so awe inspiring. They frisked as well as leaping from bow to bow it was amazing.

 

Every time I see a dolphin or any other marine mammal I wish I was an otter or a dolphin because they are so breathtaking with their such ultra impressive stunts and synchronised leaping.

Lately we have seen lots of boats being lifted out of the water it is amazing to watch.

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Opposite us are two small fishing boats, every day they go out fishing then come back with cuttlefish and/or other things they have caught in their net.    

 

 

 

World book day

The model maker’s handbook by Albert Jackson & David Day   

 

The model makers hand book is great for model makers of all ages and really easy to use whilst modelling or planning a model. I think that it’s the best modelling book in our boat. It’s a great book! I like it because it is brilliant for children and well set out with diagrams and photos, it is great for railway modellers to look at while working on your layout.

 

 

Born to run by Michael Morpurgo
 

This book is about a greyhound who lives with several people who each give him a different name. The best bit of the book is the back were you will find lots of fun things and information, I would recommend it to children, something you should look for is a little dog in the bottom right hand corner of each page, if you speed through the pages it looks like it runs.

My year on Tarquilla

Last year was amazing. We have travelled from England to Gijon in Spain living in Tarquilla.  

 

My favourite place so far was Santander because of the airport.                  

 

The best thing we have seen was the Bay of Biscay because it was so big, it made you feel small, you could only see fish and marine life and sea but no land for about 3 days and it felt very deep.

 

 I loved it at Brest because of the trams and bendy buses but mainly the tram opening day because we got free rides on the brilliant trams it was great to look out the front and watch the points and things coming up ahead and watching the back of the tram at the stations as he was keeping an eye on the back of the tram on the monitors, and we could see what the driver was doing.

 

It is very useful to have space for bikes, even if you have to dismantle them, so you can get them out very easily so we get them out more often. We have got them out 4 or 5 times, mainly where it's safe for bikes.
