It feels so good to be back home! Sailing was fun but, the weeks over. It was really kinda dirty n there were so many bugs. I got really burnt the first couple of days, so I put sunscreen on and rediscovered how absolutely nasty it is. We ran into quite a few problems. First the V-birth(idk if that's how you spell it I'm not good at the whole boat lingo) was right above the water holder(ha ha). And there was a leak so that didn't work out the first night we got that fixed. It was crazy cuase we rented a boat there when i was like 3 and there was this guy named skip that worked there. He was the one that fixed our boat n as soon as he walked on he said hey I remember you guys! It was so weird..... ne way At one bay we got attacked by some fish flies. I swear there were so many when you walked around at night it sounded like you were walking on bubble wrap all you hear is pop pop pop.... It was sick. And then in the very end we had some trouble starting the engine up. Not to mention there wasn't much wind the whole week.... makes for some rough sailing. But on the other hand it was alot of fun. We played alot of cards n went swimming off the back of the boat in like 0 degree water that was like 100 feet deep. I didn't hate it, I'd do it again. Today we woke up early in the morning and went to Mackinaw Island. Did some shopping and ate some fudge of course! But it was really really hot so we left pretty early. And now I'm home! The first thing I did was turn on the TV! lol
