Plastiki

The Plastiki is a 60 foot boat made out of 1250 plastic bottles. This boat is supposed to be sailed from San Francisco to Sydney, that is a long journey, and the whole reason for this is to show people that plastic bottles do not go to waste, you can use them somewhere else, and you can do something else with them. Each of those bottles is filled with gas to help the boat sail. It is a very high tech boat. David De Rothschild came up with the plan, and he wanted to show everyone the reason of collecting plastic bottles. There will be six people on the boat sailing, including De Rothschild.

My spring break wasn't bad, I had to stay home to take care of my little brother, since he is a baby. I got a two day extra holiday because of my tonsillitis, and because of that, I got a fever that went up to 104 degrees, or 39 degrees Celsius. I enjoyed sleeping and resting at home, and also playing with my little brother and my big brother. My brother got a laptop, and so did I, I got a HP Mini, and my brother got a Sony Vaio CW, which is much better than my laptop, but I am happy with it. On 19th march it was my big brother's birthday, and we went to a nice Arabic restaurant with some family friends. I ate so much, and the food was delicious. I alsogot a new wallet, which is pretty cool. And I ate out for most of the meals, on thursday and friday I ate KFC burgers for lunch, which was tasty. The picture is my laptop. The next time I will go to that Arabic restaurant is probably on my birthday, which is in may, I really cant wait for it!
