Roberts Creek!

I've got over three hundred pictures from our trip to Roberts Creek and hundreds of words to describe the trip. I can tell this will be a long blog entry.

On Friday morning I went to Roberts Creek with Elisa, Lori, Lauren, Sarah, and Jody. It was so devine! Roberts Creek was such a gorgeous place! The sun was so hot and the ocean was such a sparkling delight! We spend our days swimming in the ocean, soaking up the sun on castle rock, shopping in the cool stores downtown, and just being silly. My favourite thing to do was going to the beach. It was to reacful and relaxing. I loved it! One of my favourite moments at the beahc was when Lauren and I were standing on this rock when all the sudden these waves started splashing up and drenching us. We ended up just dunking our heads in the water but it was so fun! We tried to balance on rocks on the middle of the water without falling off when huge waves came. When we went shopping we went to this store called "Lucy's" which all of us loved. It was a type of surf store with all the hip clothing. I bought two shirts there. On the way to the stores each day there always seemed to be very fun songs playing. We had a fun time moving to the music in car rides. Funky Town! At the beach we also liked to go searching for sea creatures. We found a sea snake, tons of crabs -little and big- , a starfish, and an oyster with a creature inside. We had a In Roberts Creek we stayed at Elisa's grandparents, Baba and Papa. They were great people and I really enjoyed staying with them. One thing I loved so much about the trip was the delicious meals that Baba cooked us! We had a lovely dinner every night with a wonderful desert! She is such a good cook! I can see where Elisa got her cooking skills from! I had such a fantabulous time in Roberts Creek and I hope I'm able to go back again! Thank-you so much for inviting me Elisa!


This is our stary friend which Lauren and I found when we went up to Castle Rock on our last day for a last time to soak up the sun.

This is Sarah sitting on Castle Rock on our last day at the beach.

Here is Elisa and Jody supposed to be crying. LOL!

Here is Me standing in the ocean on the first day.

This is a picture which Elisa took of myself putting my hair up. This is was the time when Elisa, Sarah, Lauren, Jody, and I were sitting outside under the sun having fruit punch and yummy meat sandwhichs that Baba made for us.

This picture was taken on the last day by Lauren when it was super windy outside. Lauren and I were dying to get into the water because the waves were so huge and looked extremely fun but we had ot leave soon so we couldn't. Instead, I just walked to to the rocks in the middle of the water and Lauren took pictures. Here is a picture of me on a rock getting splashed when a huge wave came by.

Here is another picture taken by Lauren. This one is of me slipping on the rock. Hehe.

And yet another one taken by Lauren on the last day. THis on was when an enormous wave came by and I quickly jumped up onto a higher rock so I would get pushed into the water.

Here is a picture of myself. The point of this picture was to show the gorgeous sunset in the background. The sky was as gorgeous as this every night!
