Today, we went canoeing in Bellbrook. We were placed two to a boat. My partner and I enjoyed ourselves. However, we did crash into the side of the river on multiple occasions. Also, we would get often become stuck in the shallowest parts of the water. Once, my partner even had to get out of the boat and into the water just simply to push us out since we were unable to move ourselves with the paddles. Steering was the thing we struggled most with, which we would explain why we crashed so many times. We thought we would get the hang of turning eventually, but we never really did. We were on the canoe for about 3 hours before coming back to the place we arrived at when we first came. Whilst canoeing, we witnessed loads of turtles, varying in size. We also stopped to take a break on a shore to the side in the middle of the way there. We hung out on the shore for a second and took a look into the shallow water. We saw about one hundred adolescent fish swimming close to the shore. Overall, it was a calming and fun experience.

Earlier in the day, prior to leaving the school, we were given a paper that gave instructions on how to make a recipe poem. Two examples of recipe poems were given on the front, a short one of only five lines and a longer one of 12 lines. Then, on the back there were templates so we could recreate our own rendition of each poem. This was mine:

To make a river it takes 500,000 gallons of water,

Millions of rocks, and fallen trees.

Also, loads of fish,

If turtles are few.
