(What Antonio doesn't say is that we left without the life jacket... So the next day the adventure continued...)

Adventure to Find the Life Jacket

When we went to get the life jacket at the peninsula we rode the canoe across the lake with Papi and waited for him to bring Lili and Mami. We left them with the canoe. Papi, Antonio and I went into the woods on a steep trail. We went up at very fast pace. It was really tiring. Finally we got to the top of the hill to the next road. Then we took a rest and I lay down on the road. When we started walking again, it was down hill so it was much easier. We walked down the road until we got to the cemetery. Antonio and I ran the rest of the way. When we got to the peninsula Mami and Lili were already there. we found the life jacket, skipped stones and threw stones. Then I went in the canoe with Mami and Lili while Antonio and Papi walked on the shore of the lake back to the cabin.

Finding the Life Jacket

Mami and I got into a canoe to meet my brother and sister and dad at a rocky, sandy place where we thought they had left the life jacket. On our canoe ride we saw two fish, one blue bird and some hawks and very pretty leaves on the trees. Then I thought we would get lost or go to the wrong place. But when we got to the rocky, sandy place we got out of the canoe and found the life jacket under a big rock. We skipped some rocks and soon the others came through the woods. I was elated to see them.
