Man Tower

We went for a visit to Montemorelos N.L, about an hour drive from Monterrey.
We were invited to my teacher's, Miriam's parents house for lunch.
Her mom cooked us a yummy meal.

After lunch while the adults talked, I made a bendo man tower.
Gareth broke it twice before I finished it.

Fishing


Went fishing on our day off. Caught 4 fish, I caught 2, Gavin caught 1 and my dad caught 1. My little brother didn't help catch any, he just ran around.


When we got home I gutted the fish, cut his head off... all those things you need to do before cooking a fresh fish.
We cooked it with onions, salt, pepper and olive oil.
Gareth, my two year old brother ate half of my dad's and a whole one. We've not be able to get him to eat fish before, but this time he liked it a lot.
We hope to get fishing rods for my dad and Gavin. The one I have I got for one of my birthdays a few years ago when I was turning 8 on our beach vacation.

Rock Climbing Gym

My upside down doing a hard climb

Me following suit

Trying to do my dad's route but he did a move that you have to stretch really far, so I didn't finish it.


Me at the start of the climb. We had to go around this special room that has the rock climbing holds to warm up.
