We left Ponza after some swimming , and set of to
Ventotene.
When we arrived we anchored up in a bay with clear
waters .Vicks , Daddy and Jack went to look at the anchor as the sea bed was
occupied with rocks .You could see right down to to the bottom where there was
large rocks and lots of sea weed. .As soon as we got out , these Italian
Men arrived and offered us a place in thier marina (we had already asked on the
phone and they had said no). Due to the fact that there were rocks on the sea
bed we decieded to go to the marina (and the baterries were not charging so Dady
had to check that out too)
At the marina we went for a walk around the lovely
town of Ventotene.On our search we found a
restaurant and decieded to reserve a table for
six.Next to the restruant was a tunnel that led to a beach where we played for
half an hour .We then went back ton the boat to get ready for our meal.When the
waiter came to take our order ,Harry ordered muel for starters -and for his main
couse! William found some boys and tried to speek with with them in
italian:Saying "ciao" and "gracia".We all went to bed very late and the adults
stayed up talking until 4 in the morning(they woke Jack up half way through-what
is there to talk about for 6 hours?)
