Day 5 and 6- Atlantic Highlands - Sandy Hook to the Delaware Bay
The Swim Call!
Justin and the Horseshoe Crab
Day 6
After a full night of sailing down the Jersey shore, we somehow ended up in the Delaware Bay area, Lewes, Delaware to be more specific. We started the day with breakfast as usual which was followed by an all hands(everyone) deck wash. On out way to Lewes, Delaware we saw four seperate pods of dolphins, which ended up following the Lady Maryland. Right after we saw the dolphins we saw a half -decomposed leather back sea turtle. A leather back can grow to be the same size as a volkswagon beetle. After we arrived in Lewes, we went to get ice cream and shopped at souvenir shops. After dinner we went swimming jumping off the bow which was pretty fun, and after we listened to dolphins a little bit. Tonight we will anchor the first out of the last four nights, and tomorrow we will continue down to Maryland ending up somewhere in the Chesapeake Bay if were lucky.

Day 5- Atantic Highlands
Today was our 5th day on the Lady Maryland. We woke up too early as usual, and enjoyed pleasant morning debates while eating honey bunches of oats. After, we sailed past New York and got our pictures taken by the Statue of Liberty. For lunch, we got treated to Carly's famous chile, a food which was well worth its title. Later, we encounted a storm which sent us all down below for an afternoon of Pirate stories and stuffiness. When the skies cleared up we went back on deck and prepared to greet Haley at Atlantic Highlands. We had lasagne for dinner and began work on our diddy bags. Brownies were made as a special treat in the welcoming of our newest addition to out boat. After eating we mustered and did some sewing on our diddy bags. Now were settling done for bed, or in my case, preparing for night watch.
