House boat

Saturday, 26th October 2019

Hello again! I am pretty bored so I thought I would write about my granddads house boat! So, I go round my granddad’s every weekend, and I have been for about 10 years of my life. He used to live in a normal sized house: 3 bedrooms, (and extra one as he turned the attic into his room) two bathrooms and the normal things. After living in that house for some time, something happened (and no, i’m not going to say what happened) and he had to find a smaller house. He had loved houseboats since he was a young boy and already owned one so we moved into it. The boat looks quite small but it is actually very big; two floors with and stairs to go to a landing on the top:three bedrooms;one bathroom and a joint front room and kitchen. I love it down here – at first the stench of fish wasn’t very pleasing, but i got used to it. when the water comes in, the boat rocks a lot, which is unfortunate for me – i have very bad sea sickness. last night the wind was moving the boat around a lot so i didn’t get a lot of sleep. but the view here are absolutely amazing – there are many small towns you can see from across the water and during the summer the big fish and jellyfish come out . its a nice neighborhood too: there are homes for the elderly and if you walk for 5 minutes, there’s small town shops. (the bakery and fish shop are my favourites)

this was only a small blog because my granddad actually isn’t that well.

thank you and bye!
