I Went to the Safari
I was feeding these ostriches and an ostrich came reached into my rolled down window and took my cup of animal food! We went and got another one. Tony tried to feed the ostriches again, but one of them bit his pinkie, so we left them alone!
We then went to the camels, while I was feeding one of the camels it bit my pinkie, that was the end of the camels. We left them and one of them started chasing the car!
We then moved on to the deer. They were nice and sweet, and didn't bite anybody so we stayed there for a little while. Then we left, and came to some ducks, We didn't feed them anything cause they already had food.
We looked at the monkeys they were kind of on an island, except the water around them was just a very small river. Nobody could feed them because they had their own food and they would climb on the cars and not let go.
That was the end of the Safari Park.

dolphins rings
As if by magic the dolphin does a quick flip of its head and a silver ring appears in front of its pointed beak. The ring is a solid, donut shaped bubble about 2-ft across, yet it doesn't rise to the surface of the water! It stands upright in the water like a magic doorway to an unseen dimension. The dolphin then pulls a small silver donut from the larger one. Looking at the twisting ring for one last time a bite is taken from it, causing the small ring to collapse into a thousands of tiny bubbles which head upward towards the water's surface. After a few moments the dolphin creates another ring to play with. There also seems to be a se parate mechanism for producing small rings, which a dolphin can accomplish by a quick flip of its head.
An explanation of how dolphins make these silver rings is that they are 'air-core vortex rings'. Invisible, spinning vortices in the water are generated from the tip of a dolphin's dorsal fin when it is moving rapidly and turning. When dolphins break the line, the ends are drawn together into a closed ring. The higher velocity fluid around the core of the vortex is at a lower pressure than the fluid circulating farther away. Air is injected into the rings via bubbles released from the dolphin's blowhole. The energy of the water vortex is enough to keep the bubbles from rising for a reasonably few seconds of play time.

What I have been doing Lately


I am going to move. We (My mom and I) are going to get a car and go to a new home.
A few weeks ago we went to a water park. My favorite part was the huge tube slides. There is a black on and a green one. My favorite is the black one. Next I liked the racers, there were so many stairs to go up, but there wasn't a big line. I liked the current pool, it goes round and round in circles until you decide to get out. It's really hard to get out of the pool but it is possible.

Poems
Can a turtle be a turtle if it doesn't move slow?
Can a person be a person without a personality?
How can all this be? I cannot see.

Roses and Violets!
If roses are black, I'll call you right back.
If violets are red, I'll bonk you on the head.

The Little Boy Justin
He went home and put the candy under his pillow. In the morning after he ate some candy he didn't feel good, he knew he had to tell his dad about the candy. After he told his dad his dad said, "son, I am glad you told me that you took the candy. I want to think about it for a little while, I think that you have had enough trouble already, just go and lie down and I will talk to mom about it." Later his dad came to check on him He said, "I talked to mom about what happened and I think that you already learned your lesson and you won't do it again. I love you! Come give me a hug."
The End
