In San Diego, we did lots of science projects and hung out with family and friends. We came back to Florida on Tuesday, April 28th. The flight was long but uneventful.

Às San Diego, on a fait beaucoup de projets de science et vu de la famille et des amis. On est revenus en Floride mardi 28 avril. Le voyage était long mais il ne s’est rien passé.
Saturday, April 11 – Friday, April 17 — This week has been fun. On Saturday, Dad and I went for a walk. On Sunday, we didn’t do anything. On Monday, we checked into a hotel and moved some stuff there. We had dinner at a sushi place with Dad’s cousin, then we got ice cream for dessert. We slept at the hotel for the night. I did not like the hotel.
Cette semaine était amusante. Samedi, papa et moi nous sommes promenés. Dimanche, on a rien fait. Lundi, on s’est enregistré à l’hotel, puis on a déplacé des choses dans la chambre. On a mangé le dîner à un restaurant de sushis avec le cousin de papa, puis on a mangé une glace pour le dessert. On a dormi à l’hotel pour la nuit. Je n’aimais pas cet hôtel.
Wednesday, April 13 — Johnny and Joanne had recommended a breakfast/brunch restaurant in the same shopping center as Jeremiah’s called Berry Fresh Cafe. They had some unique menu items, both in terms of foods and beverages, that piqued our interest. The portions were huge and the food was fantastic. Keith ordered the Chorizo Crunch Wrap, which was a grilled tortilla stuffed with scrambled eggs, bacon, chorizo sausage, bacon, regular sausage, ham, cheddar and chipotle cream sauce. It was served with salsa on the side. Eric ordered the Nashville Chicken Biscuit, which had pimiento cheese, pickle slices, chicken tenders, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce served on a biscuit.
The sunrise on Sunday, April 12, 2026 was mostly blocked, but a sliver of sun managed to peep out from behind the clouds.
Saturday, Sunday and Monday were quiet days. We spent all three days doing chores around the boat in preparation for the haul out. We did lots of odds and ends, such as cooking up everything in the refrigerator that wouldn’t last for a couple of weeks and removing the storm plates from the windows. Last week, Eric had turned off the generator through-hull and opened up the generator so that the raw water pump could be changed. He got confirmation that it would be changed in the yard, so he put the generator back together and turned the through hull back to open on the off chance that it may need to be run. Someone came to pump out the blackwater tank. Eric and Keith also cleaned up rust stains that we’d noticed around the boat.
On Monday afternoon, we checked into a motel near the marina. It certainly wasn’t fancy, but it was the best deal in the area in terms of value for the money. Last year, this motel had been booked and Eric had been forced to stay farther away. He was happy about being closer this year.
Saturday, April 4 – Friday, April 10 — This week has been boring. On Saturday, we layed low for most of the day. We had dinner with the leader of the Ocean Posse and some of his friends. Some other boaters joined us later on. On Sunday, we went to Dad’s cousin’s house for Easter dinner. The food was good but other than that it was boooorrrrriiiiiiinnnnnnggggggg. At one point we went for a walk and saw at least a dozen rabbits.

Cette semaine était ennuyante. Samedi, on n’a pas fait beaucoup de choses. On a mangé le dîner avec le chef d’Ocean Posse et ses amis. D’autres marins nous ont rejoints. Dimanche, nous sommes allés à la maison du cousin de papa pour un dîner de Pâques. La nourriture était bonne mais tout le reste était ennuyant. A un moment nous sommes allés nous promener, et on a vu beaucoup de lapins.
