Anyways, I have been having tons of fun in Highbourne. Right after dropping off Mom and Emmy at the airport, we took the dingy to a tiny little island. Seriously, it's small. You cannot fit a house on it! We call this island Lone Palm because it has one palm tree on it.

 It takes up most of the island. I walked on the beach for a little bit and then took a swim. Lone Palm is full of shells because no one really goes on it. We jumped back on the dingy and went back home to go to bed. I was excited for the next day of adventure, and we would get to do so much!  

 Unfortunately, my wish did not come true. It rained hard all that night and part of the morning. When the furious rain came to an end, I went out on the deck. I thought everything had gone back to normal. Of course, I was wrong once again. There wasn't any rain, but the winds were very  hard and the waves were rough. Looks like we would have to spend what I thought would be the perfect day, inside. I decided that this would be a good day to start my work that I had to do. The front boat room turned into a classroom as I pulled out my textbooks and pencils.

 I hoped that it would be easy. Finally, I  was in luck. Work was easy and soon I went out to the deck again. The wind was still thrashing trees' leaves around, but I really wanted to spend at least a little time outside. So, I asked Mamere and Grandpa if we could take a bike ride by renting island bikes.

 It was super fun. We even drove by my new BFF, Mr. Skeleton! I told him that the bus was never going to come! Hopefully, he went home.

 Then, we went home and jumped in bed. Hopefully, tomorrow was going to be beautiful. Who knew? My wish came true! It was sunny with a slight breeze and we went to a private beach.

 Grandpa, Mamere, and I went to a little area with tide pools. Grandpa looked around and found a pretty much fossilized brain coral! It was so cool and don't worry, it was dead so we did not harm it. We only took pictures and put it back.

 After a long day at the beach, we went back to the boat and had the best dinner yet. We had lamb chops, steak, mashed potatoes, and cabbage with cream of chicken soup. It was delicious! We dumped the leftovers overboard and big fish came and ate it.

 I even saw a nurse shark check out the boat! By the way, I found out that some bull sharks were with the nurse sharks by the dock! After that we went to bed. This morning, we woke up just the same and after I finish this entry, we are going fishing! Well, I've gotta go catch a big one but stay tuned for next time. I'll give you our latest journeys and get ready for the answer to the trivia question! Let's hope we "get lucky" and catch a fish.
