The three of us woke up, we were soaked. We still had hours before we actually had to leave. All three of us red with rage.
My uncle Josh and my cousin Daniel were on their way to pick me up so that we could go camping and have a good three days together. I packed all my stuff. Jackets, sleeping bags, sweat pants, swimming trunks, my knife, and everything else that I could possibly need for the trip. Finally, at around 7 a.m.; they arrived to pick me up. The ground was wet from the rain the poured down through the night. I hugged my mom, dad, and gave my brother a knuckle bump, we were off. It was a two hour trip that seemed like days. When we arrived at Whalen Island Josh went on to get the camping spot and pay for it. We got a spot right next to the river. Daniel and I almost jumped out the windows waiting for Josh we were so excited to go out into the water. My uncle got back to the car and he drove to our camping spot. We all got out and started to unpack everything that we would need; except for our tent, we didn’t need that till later that night. Josh, Daniel, and I all went to the bridge we went over to get to Whalen Island and got into the water. Daniel picked up a rock and there was a small crab under it. So, all of us started to run around looking like a pack of crazy people. Finally, Daniel came up from behind it and grabbed it. He put it down and all of us were now looking around for more crabs. We all found a lot of crabs. Out of all the crabs we got, there was only one that pinched us and I was the one that got pinched. After running around looking for crabs we went to the other side of the Island to where the beach was. Daniel and I went straight to the water. For once in our lives the water didn’t feel as though we were going to freeze to death. Daniel and I started to chase each other with balls of sand. And out of nowhere Josh threw a giant ball of sand and it hit both of us. So then Daniel and I went to the sand that hasn’t been hit by the water and chased him around with them. We weren’t at the beach for very long. We then went to the river that was literally right next to our camping spot. Daniel, Josh, and all went into the river edge and found some clams. We took them back to the camping spot and cooked them on the fire. Josh dared us to eat the clams. Both of us took a bite and immediately spit it out. They were disgusting. After that we ate some real food. We had hotdogs and macaroni salad. After we ate Josh stayed behind while Daniel and I went back to the river and decided to go all the way across even with the tide coming in. We then walked back across and had to set up the tent and get ready for bed. We woke up the next morning ready for another fun day. But instead the three of us woke up, we were soaked. We still had hours before we actually had to leave. All three of us red with rage. We had to go home. |
