Today we had a great sail!


We woke up to find Rodger hanging from the rigging. We got ourselves up and ready to go and Ellen had the first shower of the week so at least one of us doesn’t smell.
Today was very tiring for us all and even stuffed animals (Rodger the hamster). Before we could set sail to Piel Island we had to go down in the lock. We gave the lock keeper some ginger cookies we made yesterday and we watched the water drain down to make it level. On the 7 hour sail to Piel Island we sailed past the wind farm and saw some cute Seals. We also spotted a rabbit cloud. We all had a chance to steer the boat and we all pulled out and put away all the sails.
Whilst we were on the way to Piel Island we convinced Lissy we saw a shark fin and she was getting very scared so we told her we were joking. James also tied Rodger to the fan at the back of the boat it was rather funny. Lissy, Ellen, Hannah, Izzy, Lizzy b and Annabel had a very nice sleep in the sun and none of us have been sick so far which is good. When we were sailing Ellen, izzy, Annabel, Lizzy B and Hannah were all singing and making up songs as we went along.
We are now currently anchored next to Piel island and now we’re going to go and watch the sunset so night night.
