Expedition Three- Southern California by Evan Harr

            Over the expedition in Southern California, we spent a lot of time near the beach. We had a base camp at Carpenteria State Beach for most of the time. The area that it was in was a very interesting location. There was a farmer’s market nearby sometimes right in front of Vons. There was also a preserved salt marsh close by that we did a couple science notebooks on.

            We did many things over the expedition like rock climbing with Jeremy and Cooke, eating out at Rusty’s Pizza and In-N-Out, and more. We also got to surf for a couple days. One of those days, we were going to go fishing, but it got cancelled due to the high winds from a storm. That was probably also why it was so windy on our first day of surfing.

            We also went to the Channel Islands and got to go on a 14 mile hike in one day around the island, which was pretty long, but cool. We also go to go sea cave kayaking, which was pretty fun also. There was a time when we tried to surf some waves and it didn’t work too well. We were going to stay for quite a few days, but we had to leave early due to a storm.

            At the end, we got to go to my house. I loved that because a lot of my family came over and I got to see my dog also. We had some delicious food and drinks at my house and had a wonderful experience! It was a cool expedition, and I really enjoyed it!
