White Watch, 12-08-2010
Iven (Bulharia)
The day started pretty good. I woke up at 7:30 and i went right away to breakfast. We had some ham, a boiled egg, a block of cheese, two waffles and a cup of hot tea. After the delicious meal my watch started and unfortenately i was 5 minutes late so i had to apology to the whole blue watch for being late but it was fun.
Our watch was supposed to be 4 hours and luckily the weathers was nice to us. The wind was not very strong which made our work easier. We did not have to raise the sails and pull the ropes every 5 minutes so we had a lot of free time. We spent it very usefully, though. We did a little bit of a dictionary game and tought ourselves to some new words and frases in different languages . For instance i learned how to say good morning in portugish (Bom Dia), Italián (Buon Giorno) and lithuanian (Kavas Rytas)
And off course, since everything is happening in our watch, we also had to tack. Since the wind was not strong enough for the ship we had to stack the sails in the opposite direction so that we could move the ship faster. It was work for more than 12 people but we managed to do it alone with our own watch (White watch rules!). After our watch was over we all went inside and as for me i had 4 nice hours of sleep. Then i woke up once again and had my sweedish dinner meal which was very tasty. After the dinner we had a watch again but this one was only 2 hours. And during the watch we could go down to the mess, because of the Swedish presentation!
