My family and I just went to Bushmans. Bushmans is the de Jagers cottage. It is an hour and a half away from Port Elizabeth. Well, anyways, we went in their motor boat and we (us kids) were going to go tubing and the grown ups, Andre, Marina, and my Mom and Dad and of course Kara. So we went tubing in this river that flowed into the Indian Ocean, soooo the river was really salty! After we went tubing we stopped to rest on a dock (in the middle of nowhere). There was a mud area with a whole lot of mud. Jack and little Andre started rolling around in the mud. I was thinking, "eewww, gross!" But before I knew it, I was in the mud.

Big Andre, Dad, Kara, and Thinus zoomed away to start skiing. Marina and Mom stayed with us. After I rolled in the mud and looked like a black person with a bathing suit on, I would jump in the salty water and get clean and then jump out and start rolling in the mud again. Then Marina told me if I just waited and let the air dry the mud on me and then jump in, my skin would get really smooth. So I did that except I did it butt-naked. You couldn't tell because there was so much mud on me and like I said it was in the middle of nowhere! When everyone came back we started going up the river really far, like 2 and a half miles. On our way back we saw a sign that said "Warning, dangerous animals" and that really freaked us out!
