Dear Earth 2 Ocean

Thank you for letting me use your diving pool and gear. You showed me how to dive and it was awesome!

It was great when I got to jump off the platform with my gear on. It was kind of you when you helped me put my gear on and let some of the air out so I would not float. Thanks for that!

It was difficult when I had to dive under the hoops so that we could get the glue in the pot. Something I learnt was to not hold my breath under water when I am breathing from a tank.

Thank you agin for letting me in your pool. I had a fantastic day!

Yours sincerely Dylan Weir

Dear Dad

Thank you for coming on the Amazing Race 2011. I liked it when you helped my group and I on the maze and how you lifted me up so I could see where were going. It was funny when we could not find the marker at the red woods because it was hidden under some leaves. It took us two attempts to find it. It was kind when you helped us in the redwoods with the orienteering and it was a real bonus that you knew where some of the markers were.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 15px/normal Arial; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">My favourite activity was the diving as it was a new experience for me. Now I really want to go diving all the time. It would be so fun looking at the bottom of the ocean with you.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 15px/normal Arial; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">It was difficult when we had to get to the center of the maze because we were running into the same door time and time again.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 15px/normal Arial; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">A couple of things that I learnt that day that were really interesting was that a dump trucks tyre costs $20,000 and not to hold you breath under water when you have the dive gear on. It was fascinating!
