They will know we are sailors by our screams

So this week I have been Sailing camp PD. This is beginning sailing, so its all about learning new things and working out the kinks. I'll share my best story of the week so far. I was getting on the motor boat where I sit perched out on cooler and I catch the sail boats if they need an instructor to help them, so that we don't drift away from each other.  

Anyways there was two parked right next to each other, and I was able to get on the first one then attempting to get on to the second one I got stuck. So I have one foot on the first boat and the other on the second boat, rocking back and forth back and forth. Yeaaa me! So the driver of the motorboat was kind enough to grab the top of my life vest and yank me into the second boat, but not before I had caught my pants on a metal bar and ripped them.  The driver was really embarrassed, and asked me if I wanted to go change. I had on my bathing suit so it was totally not a big deal, but it was very entertaining. So now I have my first official pair of camp pants!

We might go out to do a night sail twomrow and I'll be taking photos if we do!
