Mildred Belle Day 1

Hello family and friends!

We've completed our first day on the Mildred Belle and are now underway for day 2. All's well and here we have a recap of the day's events from one of our campers:

"Through the blazing heat on the boat, many people welcomed the rain yesterday. The group divided into Watch 1 and Watch 2-- while Watch 1 learned about plankton with Natalie, Watch 2 worked on navigation with Brendan, pinpointing our location on a chart. We set up camp at Point Lookout, unloaded our stuff, and started making dinner. While we feasted on hamburgers, Boca burgers, and hot dogs, the bugs feasted on us. Everyone managed to get a considerably fair amount of sleep, then ate breakfast, packed up, and set out to the boat. Rather than watch the adults undock the boat like yesterday, the kids were assigned jobs, taking docklines 1 through 4 and roving the sides of the boat with fenders. Everyone is excited for another day on the Mildred Belle and wondering what awaits us in Crisfield."
