Hello and welcome. This blog outlines the 9 day trip of 8 CTY students aboard the Lady Maryland. Each night, a different student will act as the scribe to write up a summary/blog post of the day, which will be recorded here. Unfortunately, some places where we spend the night do not have internet access, so we may not be able to update every night, but blogs of each day should be posted. Enjoy!
July 29th; Portsmouth, NH - Isle of Shoals, NH
Blog Courtesy of Sarah and crew:
Today was the first day we arrived at the boat. Before we got on the boat, the crew members introduced themselves and we played an interesting name game. Although the boat was totally new to all of us, the crew members were really nice and we had an extraordinary cook! Everyone loved the food she made. But anyways... afterwards, we worked our butts off! We learned different types of knots, boat checks, and basically how to get DOWN AND DIRTY on the boat! Right now, we're anchored a short distance from Star Island, which is part of the Isle of Shoals. We also have individual night shifts from as early as 10 to as late as 2 in the morning!
There are 18 people on the boat and we've had a blast today. By the way, our classmates are Tim, Andrew, Sarah, Lisa, Annie, Jen, Nina, and Jesse. Unfortunately, it's lights out for now. Tomorrow should be interesting though!
