Hi Mom and Dad.
We decided to write a letter to let you know how we are doing. We have only been away for one day but we are already coated in grime. It is yummy.
During our first night at the campsite, we all had to go to the bathrooms with out "potty partner". At the bathroom, Isabel was vicously attacked by a huge spider but she managed to escape alive. Or it could have just been nothing since it was pretty dark.
Priyanka enjoyed dinner and finished off the pot of sauce. Everyone else licked their plates clean as well. Pineapple/Jonathan will eventually find his toothbrush, so don't worry about that.
This morning, Grace woke up and let us know that her inflatable mattress pad was still 3 inches thick. CJ the RA doesn't think it will last the whole nine days but we'll see.
We had breakfast on the boat and afterwards Sam, Sara, and Melissa volunteered to do the dishes. They learned how to operate the sink but unfortunately this was after the dishes were washed.
TR saw what looked like an eel attacking a crab, but even more bizarre could be Dominick with pink and purple nail polish modeling the type 1 life jackets.
We learned about coiling ropes, setting sails and tying knots. We also could tell you guys a little about bumping and knobby thingies.
John became a rock star icon on the last boat even though he was on land at the time. Brian and Rachel are both doing fine and haven't let a little poison ivy spoil their fun. We'll write more soon.
Take care and have fun.
Love your kids,
The Oystas
