CTY whales session 1

Day 3

Today we all woke up at 5 a.m. to see the Statue of Liberty and New York City. AT 5:30 a.m., Jenna's mom saw us from the Brooklyn Bridge. Then port watch navigated and steered us up the Long Island Sound. Mel finally was able to meet up with us at Oyster Bay. We did a boat cleaning competition. Port watch had souls, bowls, and dish duty, while starboard watch did a full deck wash. Whoever finsihed first won. Port watch won and Josh and Sam claimed two small skeleton warriors named Pablo and Carlos.

When we docked, we went into town and we all got ice cream. After that, we went to a variety store and had a crazy adventure. We saw a ninja, played around with all of the clothes, and found some stylish rain gear for Harmony (but she didn't like it). We saw cheddar flavored meal worms and sour cream and onion flavored crickets.

When we got back to the boat, Rachel took us to the beach. We all got in, but only a few of us went under the water. Sam and Josh caught caught a fish, but they did not know what kind it was. We had a great dinner and had fun working on our whale project (even though we don't always agree on everything). Any way, today was a good day.
