Day Two - New Jersey Coast


Today our day started out with getting up early in the morning and doing night watches with members of the crew. As the morning went on, we saw pods of dolphins to the left and right of us.

During the morning watch, Starboard did the first deck wash of the trip. "Deck washing was fun!" said Joey. As the Starboard watch was on watch, the Port watch was learning about estuaries, and at midday the watches switched. The watches switched once again for 2 hour watches when each watch designed their watch flag. During the lesson we made our own estuary.

We are still up the coast of New Jersey and will be in New York in the morning. We finished the day with guitar playing by Jimmy and Emma, and playing card games.

Quotes of the day:

"We made purple... oops!"

"I wanna play Jimmy's guitar..."

"We're pirates... because we're pirates!"

"SALSAA!"
