Bowyer Island summer 2014

Over the summer my friend Steven invited me to his cabin on Bowyer Island. I usually get invited every summer and it's always fun but this time I had a lot more fun because I did a lot more dangerous stuff. We did a ton of things but the most fun things to do were snorkelling, while we were snorkelling, we saw a ton of things like pretty big crabs, starfish, shiners (a type of small shiny fish) and we even swam right next to a seal, it scared us! Another thing we did was go pier jumping, there is a pier that leads to the dock at bowyer, it is pretty high up and you can climb up a ladder to jump off of an even higher point, we jumped off the pier every day. We also went fishing off of the dock for shiners, although we had fishing rods, we used a fishing line with a hook on it that we called shiner lines, we caught probably over 40 shiners in 20 minutes! One of the very best things that we did was going tubing, we went tubing behind a 115 horsepower boat, although it went pretty fast, it was so much fun because there were big waves on that side of the island. Stevens family friend, Jay, had a boat specifically meant for speed, while we were tubing, he was doing doughnuts in his boat that was next to us and made absolutely ginormous waves, it was hilarious because there were 3 people on the tube, Steven, his sister Jordan and me. I looked over at Stevens sister while we were all yelling STOP!!! STOP!!! SLOW DOWN!!! and saw her yelling, I looked back at the giant wave coming towards us, heard a loud THWAP, looked back at where jordan was sitting and saw that because we didn't slow down, she just jumped in the water to avoid flipping on the tube. Steven and I laughed so hard that we almost fell off of the tube. When we were just before the wave, we were screaming and laughing at the same time, we saw the giant wave towering over us and then we went flying along with the tube, I was so surprised that we didn't fall off and then rubbed it in jordan's face. We also went fishing on their other boat for sockeye salmon, everybody caught one on their first try except for me, I lost like 3 or 4 fish! stupid fish why do they hate me! Overall it was a lot of fun because everyday we would be doing somethingdifferent and it's really nice to get away from all the technology and not use any technology for a while.
