Today when we where all ready to sail we set sail to Porto Cervo again, on the sail we didn’t make any water as we where all ready full of water. Half way through the windy and wavy sail we put up a tiny part of the main sail, as it was really windy. We put up the main to stop the boat from rolling from side to side like a fishing boat. Catrin fell fast asleep on Grandma’s lap during the sail, the sail was a short one and a half hour sail. When we got into the bay of Porto Cervo we decided to anchor in the bay which was were we met the Dutch children. Whilst the adults sorted out the boat Harry, Catrin and I all went down and we played Lego. The adults had trouble anchoring so they decided to go into the posh port, I came up stairs and I pumped up the fenders, because we where going into the posh marina where all the super yachts go!!! We were mooring up at the same time as an American boat. The marinairo was trying to look cool but he was failing badly at this as he jumped into the dingy and he then almost fell into the marina’s water!! We had to moor up on two buoys and the pontoon!! You could see that super yachts come in the summer as the cleats and rings are really big!!
 
When we had moored up and when we were all ship shape we had our lunch, after lunch an ambulance turned up, it parked next to a super yacht. After a while someone came of the boat and they were loaded into the ambulance. Later we found out that it was the cook of the super yacht who was injured, we thought that she fell down the hips stairs, the stairs are easy to fall down!! After all this drama we went into the shopping town of Porto Cervo. The town was full of shops and cafes which had things on sail for lots and lots of money. We passed a a shop that sold a pair of shoes for 180.00£!! We soon got to an ice cream parlour which we sat down in and had ice creams from. When we had walked past all of the shops which had expensive prices we came to a cafe, we sat down in this cafe and we looked at the menus. One bottle of water was 20£!!
 
As soon as we saw the prices we walked strait back to the boat when we where back at the boat we had cocktails with flatbread!! When we had drunk our drinks we had a pasta surprise whilst Grandma and Grandad went out to a nice restaurant for tea.
