Book 23

Hiiii..... its Delo. Penelope did not believe that the Beggar was Odysseus so she tested him. She said she moved the bed that he made out of an olive tree. Odysseus got really mad because he made that by himself. His outrage proved to Penelope that he was Oddyseus. They lived happily ever after.

Book 22

Hey its Guber. After winning the contest Odysseus and Telemachus force all the suitors into a hall way. With the help of Athena they kill all of the suitors and Odysseus went to see Penelope.

Book 21

Hey its Delo, we just landed in Ithica and Odysseus wants to go to see how everyone is doing. He dressed as a beggar so they didnt recognize him. He got into a contest and won by stringing his bow and shooting an arrow through 12 axe heads.

Book 12

Hey its Guber and we are hangin out down here in the underworld. We learned we are gonna run into Scylla and Charybdis. Scylla is a six headed monster with twelve feet and that kills one person for each head. Charybdis is a monster that sucks up the ocean then spits it out. Circes says to stay near Scylla so we only lose six men not the whole ship. After that we are going to Thrinacia where Helios keeps his cattle. If we eat the cattle Helios will get very mad.

Book 10

Hey Delo is back and now I'm blogging from Circe's Island. Another goddess who kept Odysseus because she is beautiful. She turned some of the men into pigs and Odysseus had to save them. Hermes helped Odysseus save the men by giving moly which stopped Circe's powers. When we eventually started to leave Circes gave us advice to go to the underworld and find Tireceas to get advice on how to get home.

Book 9

Hey now its Guber. We finally got off Calypso's Island and we landed at the city of Cicones. They are our enemies so we raided and robbed the city until the drove us away. We came to the Coast Line of the Lotus Eaters. We landed there to take on water. Some of our friends went out to find food and ate some Lotus. They soon became forgetful of their home land. So ofcourse Odysseus had to save the day and take the men and tie them to the ships. After the Lotus Eaters we went to the island of The Cyclopes. We entered his cave and he ate six of our men!!! Odyseus made a plan and then stabbed him in the eye. We got out by hanging on sheep as the Cyclopes let them out.

Book 1
