​We all slept outside last night and the sky was amazing! There are twelve people on the Neptune (our boat) - nine students and three adults. There are five cabins, and I share one with Tim and Juan. We have to clean it every day because it’s small.

Why does he have to clean his cabin every day?

​Everyone has to do chores and every day we have a new job. We turn the Work Wheel to find out what our day’s work is. Today, I am cabin cleaner, so I have to clean the cabins and bathrooms!

Today was a fantastic day! It was windy and sunny - perfect conditions. We sailed for five hours, so everyone learned a lot. Chloe was “captain for the day” and she was excellent. It’s my turn tomorrow! I love sailing! :)​

There are only a few rules on the boat, for example, we mustn’t smoke and we have to wear life jackets when we’re sailing. They’re very fair, so everybody respects them. The instructors are great and they help us a lot.​

I hope i don’t have to do the cooking tomorrow. It’s very windy and the boat is moving a lot. I hate going inside when the sea’s rough. It makes me feel sick! :(​
