Today we went in the saloon to do our homework. After we had done our homework we lifted up the anchor and we motored out of the anchorage and when we got out of the bay we put out the trolling lines. After a few hours we saw the houses on the Island we were going to and the Island was called Paxos. We then took the trolling line in but when we were almost at the end of the line we discovered that the line was cought around the rudder just then Mum had a idea. Dad got the boat hook out and then he got the lure and cut the other side of the line and then we pulled the rest in and we tied the lure back on. Then Dad cut some rope then he melted it. We soon arrived and Dad put down the anchor and then he put out the ropes on the rocks to keep the boats stable. We then got ship shape and we had lunch. After lunch we went swimming at the back of the boat and then we went snourckaling and we saw the bow thruster  and then we checked the anchor had dug in. we then went snourckaling around rocks and we saw thousands of sea urchins then we got our selves dry. Then Katie saw five star fish.
 
Then we got ready to go out the we  went in the dingy and and I drove. We then had a look around and we soon came to a bakery and next to that was a shop with a kite in a shape of a ship and Dad said we can pick it up later the lady showed us some instruments made out of bamboo and coconuts. We then had tea went to pick up the ship went in the dingy home and went to bed.
