When we where all awake and dressed we decided to sail to an anchorage for my birthday tomorrow. On the way we passed lots of other boats, most of them where charter boats. When we had arrived and anchored Daddy told us that it is hard to anchor here because the pebbles have been ploughed many times by anchors.
 
After lunch we decided to go to the shore, we drove along in the dingy. When we got there there was a man from a Greek restaurant who tied us up, he then showed us his restaurant. We sat down and we ordered some drinks, Daddy told the man running the restaurant that we would come back to this restaurant tomorrow for my birthday. After our drinks we walked to a small shop, the shop selled toys, necklaces and charms, rugs, bowls and lots more things. Daddy told the lady that we would come back here tomorrow as well.
 
When we had finished in the shop we decided to walk down the beach, I spotted a sea urchin on the shore, Harry picked it up! He was told of because it is very painful if you get one of their spikes stuck in you! As we walked along the other side of the stony beach we saw bright green crickets, they where really big! Harry began to chuck stones at the crickets, he got told of as well for that.
 
Back at the boat Harry, Catrin and I all had ice creams, whilst Mummy and Daddy tidied there room. Mummy, Daddy and Catrin have the front Cabin, Harry and I have the two back cabins. There where lots of British boats in the bay, when we arrived they all left, Daddy said we scared them away! After tea we all went to bed early as we didn’t want to be grumpy tomorrow.
 
At about half past one in the morning there was a big wave which probably came from one of the really big and really fast power boats. The wave broke our Mallorca cup. When Mummy and Daddy had made sure nothing else would brake tonight we all crept back into bed.
