Boat Ride


This weekend a group of students and teachers went on a boat ride on the river. When we heard about the ride we thought "man this is going to be fun" we had this idea of this boat that we were going to ride and learn about things that we saw and landmarks and different things a.k.a fun facts. When we arrived the boats were just what i thought. It had a sail that was rolled up, old looking, and made of wood. When we got on the boat things that we thought changed. When we were ready to take off the driver started the motor and we buzzed off. We were just zig-zagging down the river for two hours. We didn't had locations that we were going to see or any little fun fact to learn about. At first we were a little confused. The ride was not what we had thought. But as we started to move down the river we starting to have fun. We were singing, taking photos, laughing, and just really enjoying life. When we were done we were a little sad. We had to get off the ship and move on to something else in the town. When we all got home that night i was laying in my bed thinking about the day, and i thought about how we were so excited to see new things that we were looking forward to learn something. It hit me right there. I was excited to learn things and when it didn't happen i was confused. That was something new. I had never thought about how my need for learning has changed and the thirst for more was still there.
