Day Two



Hey folks, sorry for the delay. It's been pretty tough locating good internet signals out here on the high seas.

Today we learned even more about the boats. We learned how to navigate, steer, look out, and check up on the boat.

We fished, expecting to catch about six tons of marine life, but instead caught only one very claustrophobic, vigorous, fiesty, and infinitely small thirteen-striped Spot Fish. We later set him free for being a good boy/girl. (We're not really sure which.)

The Port Watch hoisted our flag high, and were able to scornfully bear the 93 degree weather and equal humidity. Unfortunately, we are all fast becoming mosquito bait.

Last night four of us went swimming with Amanda by a giant bridge with tons of car headlights illuminating it in the dark. It was really relaxing and we plan on making it a tradition. The others played an awesome and intense game of soccer with many overshots but no injuries.

We also saw an amazing sight yesterday. We saw a valiant bald eagle claiming the life of a ferocious snake.
