Yesterday, November 15th, 2009, We took a trip to Pismo Beach.
It was Mikey, My Mom, Charles, Me, Bash and Della who went. Bash's Dad let him borrow the Lincoln Navigator for the day and it was niiiice. It was white, had a DVD player in the back, radio was a touch screen thing, and the seats were comfortable and roomy. We left around 12:30pm because Mikey had orientation at Toys R' Us. Mikey was the driver. My mom sat in the front passengers seat, Charles and me sat in the back, and Bash and Della sat in the far back.

We were listening to Mikey's music on the way down there, which was a little bit of everything, more of rap. Charles was playing Kingdom hearts on the DS almost the whole way over there. I played some Pokemon Diamond, then just sat there and listened to music. Della and Bash were talking to each other. The navigator was smooth riding, it didn't feel bumpy. We arrived at the Beach around 3:45pm and parked in the hotel parking. It was a nice hotel. It had a pool in front of the ocean and seats outside the hotel. And they had stairs that led down to the beach. We went to the restroom to change into our swimming clothes.

My Mom thought we were all crazy for getting in the water. It was like 78 degrees and we were going in the ocean! We walked down the stairs outside the hotel and put our stuff on this big rock where my mom sat. Mikey said he wasn't gonna get wet but he did later on. First we went over to some caves that was by the water, and looked around. Then, Della was finding me a bunch of Sand Dollars. I've never seen one before and when I seen it I was excited! It was cute! I got about 6 of them. Some broke though.

Then I went in the water with Della, IT WAS FREEZING. It felt like ice almost. I never go swimming at the Beach but this time I promised Charles I would swim with him and so I swam. And I had a lot of fun! It was really cold at first but then my body got used to it so I went farther. I hate when the water gets in my hair because it's really hard to get the knots out. So I put my hair up and surprisingly it didn't get wet! My whole body got wet but my hair was perfect. lol.

Della and Bash went out farther into the water while Charles, Mikey and me were closer to shore. Mikey kept throwing his football in the water and the waves would push it back. The sun set almost an hour and a half in being in the water. It was a beautiful sunset. It looked like the ones that were in Kingdom hearts. Not too long after it set we headed back to my Mom who was on the rock. She took some pictures with Della's camera. I found a rock and wrote C+C in the sand. Della was all Red when she got out because she was cold.

We headed up the stairs, and back to the hotel where we got dressed in our dry clothes in the bathroom. When we dried off we went back in the navigator and Mikey put on the heater and that was awesome. lol. We were hungry so Mikey took us to this China Buffet that him and Bash always went to when they came to Pismo. It was good. I had sushi (my favorite) Bash had noodles and rice. Della had Wong tongs and noodles. Charles had a little bit of everything. And my mom got rice and noodles with chicken. Mikey had lots of sushi like me and after he was in the bathroom for a while. lol. He said chinese was his exlax. Lol.

After we ate we headed back to the pier. It was like 7pm and there were lots of stars out. Most shops were closed but we did go to the end of the pier to look out at the darkness which was pretty and scary at the same time. It was nice, all of us together. We got some candy at the candy store, which was weird because they had candy with bugs in it and a caramel apple covered with crickets. Eeewww. I, of course got some bug free candy. I prefer chicken thank you. lol. I got gummy strawberries and got Charles some Candy corn and he went back to buy some rock candy. Next to the candy store there was an Arcade that was open! There were lots of cool games in there. It was weird at night though. But they had an air hockey table and DDR!! GO DDR! It was awesome it even had fans on it!! I'd do it all day. lol. We didn't have too many quarters and both change machines were out of order so that was sad.. Eehh.

About 20 minutes there we got back in the navigator to head home. It was a nice ride back home. Charles fell asleep on my lap. I made him fall asleep from scratching his ear, yes sounds weird but my grandma made me fall asleep by doing that and it worked on him. lol. Well we got home and we were dropped off first. It was a great day and I really loved spending time with my friends.
