Today at eight o’clock in the morning I woke up, I then quickly brushed my
teeth, after that I then did my hair and when I had done all this I put my life
jacket on and I then went upstairs and I then saw that we where on our way to
Sardinia! After I had been upstairs for about five minutes Catrin woke up, I
went down stairs with Mummy to help get her ready for the sail. Soon after
Catrin had woken up Harry woke up, when Harry had woken up we all had our
breakfast – jam on toast. When we had eaten our breakfast Daddy went to check on
the hand line which we where trolling behind us, he checked the line and he then
said “ I think we have caught a fish everyone!!!” Daddy pulled the hand-line’s
line in when we could see the end of the line we all saw a gigantic fish, Harry
passed Daddy a blue cloth, Daddy then hoisted the fish on board. Harry and I
both then got our photos taken with Harry’s giant fish, when we had had our
photos taken with the fish Daddy got out the Dartmouth sign and he then cut the
fish’s head and tail off when he had done this he took all the fish’s digestive
tubes out. Daddy’s job was disgusting, when he had finished with the fish he
rapped it up in Clingfilm when he had wrapped it up in Clingfilm he put the fish
into a bin bag and he then put the fish into the fridge.
After we had dealt with the fish we passed quite a few big ships which
where loaded with goods, one of the sailing boats that we passed was sailing all
the way to place in south Africa! Most of the boats which we passed where at
least more than thirty - five miles away! Soon after we had seen the big
ships, the sailing boats and after catching the big fish we had our lunch, when
we where eating our lunch we realised that we could no longer see the Balearics
as we where in international waters. After lunch Harry, Catrin and I played lots
of different games with our new playmobil that we brought from a toy shop the
other day. After Catrin, Harry and I had been paying games for about four and a
half hours. Soon after Harry, Catrin and I had all played our games that we
where playing we had out tea, Pizza. The pizza was a margarita pizza, it was
delicious! When we had eaten our tea and when we had cleaned all the plates away
Harry asked Daddy if we could stay up till the sun has set, Daddy told us that
we could stay up that long as long as when the sun has set we go to bed straight
away. Whilst the sun was setting Harry, Catrin and I all chatted, it took
the sun about half an hour set completely, when the sun had set Harry, Catrin
and I went to bed whilst Mummy and Daddy sailed the boat all night.....To be
