Kid boats

Okay, I only got one email asking me to post, but an email’s an email. 

My dad told you about the kid boats that we met (Piper and Mojo) but he didn’t tell you about what us kids did. So I will. 

We spent most of our time playing LEGOs or watching movies on Piper. 

When we were in Black Point our parents went out for dinner together and left their five kids on board Piper… ALONE! (That’s when ye old folk gasp or clutch your armchair for stabilization.)

Anyway, Mojo’s parents stopped by Piper to pick up their two kids. 

When they left, the three remaining kids decided to ask our parents (over the radio) for a sleepover. 

So Piper got on the radio and asked for a sleepover on Piper. 

The answer was yes, but what I later realized is that Mojo must have been reading the mail 

(listening to other people’s conversations on the radio) and probably got a bit jealous. 

I think this because two days before this all five of us kids had asked for a sleepover on board Piper and the answer was no. 

My parents took me back to Cupcake to get some sleepover stuff and then brought me back to Piper. 

When my parents had port (left, get it?) we watched How To Train Your Dragon 2. 

Then we went to bed. 

The next morning we had eggs and bacon for breakfast then had sailing lessons in Tink, Piper’s sailing dinghy. 

My parents are begging me to tell you about how on Piper’s parents way back to us by dinghy they had to ask us to flash the anchor light because they couldn’t find their own boat in the dark.  

When my parents and I were on our way back to Piper later that same evening we had to ask them to flash their anchor light again! It’s dark in the dark.
