My Birthday in Plymouth
Captain's logs, as seen through the eyes of a 10-year-old soon-to-be global cruising daughter of ours!
Happy Birthday! Guess what, you'll never guess that today I went to Plymouth! One cool thing we saw was a replica of the Mayflower. It's really cool! The bunks are gross and the boat smells. There was a little boat next to the big boat. It's like a dinghy.
Today we also went to a museum. Cole, Kak and I did a treasure hunt. It was really cool. We also saw a rock. It was the first thing a pilgrim touched. It is only half its real size. The sweetest thing we did today was go to a candy store! I got salt water taffy and got more candy. A guy named Larry took us on a walking tour around Plymouth. We learned a ton about its history.

Today I'm in Provincetown. We were just in the middle of a thunder, hail, and lightning storm. We "sailed" off our anchor with a big gust of wind. We "sailed" past a boat that was at least 50 feet in front of us. Also during the storm, Kak, Cole and I watched the "Incredibles". One time, something happened (BOOM) in the movie and at the same time there was a loud clap of thunder. We had a really good dinner. We haaaaaaaaaad TACOS!

Today we went to P-town. I got "Blubber" and Kak got a journal and another book. We also got sailor's knot bracelets.

Today we went to the Cape Cod Canal! The current was so strong. We were going 12 knots with only a motor and current. It took us only about an hour to get through.
