Today was a very hard working day. I think we all did really great. We all had to wake up by 7 today and do our chores. We left from Saint John today and started our way to Road Town in Tortola. The trip was very smooth and easy except for all the hard work everybody put in today. We had to put up the sails and following that when we got to Road Town we had to take them down, it was a lot of hard work but we got it done and didn’t give up on what had to be done. It was very hot today by the way and that did effect everybody and their mood and reaction to things but it was all good because we worked though it and were rewarded with swimming time today. We had a lot of laughs today and I feel like day by day we are all getting closer and better at doing our job on the ship and learning our lines we did a lot of studying on them today and had things checked off our list. AMAZING we got to go aloft today and the crew was taking pictures we also had our first Tall Ships runway show, it was great. Tonight we had something special, smores oh yea we had them and they were great!!!! Over all today was one of the best days and there will be many more to come along with many memories and experiences.
