I am only writing about the first five days.

Nantucket is a small island of the coast of Massachusetts. By plane it is 35 minutes away. It is kind of a smaller, less crowded Cape Cod.

During my eight night stay on Nantucket, I had a lot of fun. When I arrived, I quickly unpacked and jumped in the pool. My sister, Uncle and dad were all in too. My Uncle had arrived at 6:00 am, and he was talking about the people he met and how excited he was to stay with us. The time past quickly, because it was already dinner time. My dad made burgers. We watched a movie, and the kids went to bed. My sister is talking about how excited she is to see Zoe and her family tomorrow. They are our close family friends. I walked upstairs to my room. I was excited for my really good camp friend Jonah to come over. He was going o stay for two nights.

As the next day passed very quickly, my mom went to pick up the Lester’s (the family friends.) when they got to our house, they unpacked. Zoe came down and I played a few games of fuze ball with her, and then we anxiously waited for dinner. My dad, Uncle Eric and the dad Chris made an amazing steak. By the end of dinner, it was all gone. My dad said that Jonah was coming at 10 am, so he could come on our five hour deep see fishing trip that I didn’t want to go on. Since Jonah was coming, it would be fun. Tonight, we made s’mores and went for a night swim. The pool had really cool LED lights built in, so the pool was a strong purple. We were all full with steak and s’mores, so we all headed to bed.

I woke up at 9:15, 45 minutes until Jonah came. I was really tired,but after a hearty breakfast of bacon and eggs, Jonah had arrived and I was ready to go. We talked about how we missed camp and the people there. After a bit of talking, I gave Jonah a quick tour of the house, and Jonah’s favorite place was the fuze ball table. We played a few games, and then my dad told us that we were going to the fishing trip. When we arrived, we got lunch and went to a store. Then we waited for half and hour and we finally got on the boat. It took a very slow one hour and 15 minutes to get to the right place, in witch we explored the boat, played cards and rested. When the boat finally slowed down, we got instructions and started fishing.The first two spots we didn’t catch anything, but then the captain led us to glory. you could see 30-40 inch Striped Bass in the swell. It was amazing. I only tried once, and I caught something. But I got sea sick, so I just laid down. Every time we put the line in, something caught in less than 90 seconds. That’s shorter then the time it takes to reel the fish in. We ended up catching so many fish w had to throw them back. We had so much that for Jonah and my family, witch is 18 people combined (Jonah had a lot of cousins over,) that was less than half of the fish. People walking bye stopped in awe. It was crazy. We went back to my house, cooler full of fish, and got ready for a dinner pasta, Striper and Flounder. After we had more s’mores and another night swim. Full yet again, we went upstairs, and texted and FaceTimed them. It was so fun. We went to bed, and woke up at 9:45. Well rested we went down stairs, breakfast awaiting us.

It was the same as yesterday, bacon and eggs. It was just as good. Zoe is 14, so she did do a lot of stuff with us that Bailey (my sister) would not do. We went to the beach, and the waves were pretty nice. We body surfed for an hour and had a great time. The water was cold but refreshing. Back at the house, we had quick lunch, and a swim. After that Jonah and I played Magic: the Gathering, spike ball, KanJam, and fuze ball until dinner. After dinner we ate ice cream and watched Jaws. I think that it is over hyped, the only really scary part is when the shark studier free dives down to a boat and sees a dead body. Zoe was the only person that didn’t scream at that part. Just like yesterday, we talked to our friends, and fell a sleep.

When we woke up, I said I smelled bacon and Jonah said that he smelled pancakes. We were both right. We devoured it, and Went for a swim. Then we got out and went upstairs and played Magic again. We came down when my Dad called for lunch. It was sandwiches. We ate, and then went down to the beach. My mom had been talking to his mom and they both agreed that Jonah should stay one more night. We were super excited when we heard the news.Tonight we ate ribs and watched a bad movie, then went to bed. Tomorrow, we were going to Great Point, and the tip on the island.

We woke up, ate, and got lunch at a sandwich place. We drove to Great Point. We had to take out some of the tire pressure because we were driving on the sand. It took a long time. When we finally got to the long part on the beach, the kids got a turn to handle the steering wheel. When we got out of the car, we ate lunch and went swimming. We were only mildly terrified because of watching jaws. We drove to the pumps, where we put air back into the tires. We went home, played, swam and ate dinner. I went up to my room with Jonah where we talked to our friends, and did dubsmashes with each other. We had a pretty good sleep, and a good breakfast. It was Jonah’s last day.

We went to the beach and swam in the pool. Then we said goodbye, and that he would try to go to the New York camp reunion, even though he is from Boston.
