The tiger shark is dead!


Today they killed one of my Dad's tiger sharks!



I was at my Dad's office at Shark Park waiting for divers to come back and we were told that a tiger shark was caught and dead in the shark nets at Scottburgh. She must have been caught on Christmas Day and by the time we got to her she was smelling really bad. We had to get her out of the nets so that other sharks were not killed trying to feed on her. It was a very sad day for me.

Summer Holidays!

I have been spending the sunny days riding my quad with my friend Shannon and swimming up a storm! My friend Hanli from Cape Town is visiting us and she joined me in the pool and took some pics:


Hanli is a Freediver and loves diving with sharks, she is teaching me how to Freedive. To Freedive you take 3 or more deep breaths before diving down on one breath and staying underwater... when I'm down there I don't even have to think of coming up!

The Weather has been terrible so no riding this week!

With the terrible weather we have had over the last two weeks my outdoor activities have been affected. I have not been able to horse ride and have managed a few training sessions in the pool.

We finish school for the year tomorrow and I am looking forward to a fun holiday.

Ella and Sammy:


The weather has been awful but here's hoping to a good weekend!


This week the weather has been terrible with lots of rain and wind. I spent my days at school where a tree fell down. I spent a lot of time playing play station with Paul Wildman. Paul helped me conquer Kung Fu Panda.

Ella starts her amazing adventures online!

This is the first post for Ella's Amazing Adventures. I am looking forward to sharing my experiences with the animals of our coast - both in the water and out of it. I will also go quadbiking, surfing, waterskiing and surfing. My dog Jasmine will do some of these adventures with me.
