Bad Sailing~ Chapter 2 by Janie M.


4/15/14
Dear Diary,
  I know it has been I while since I have written but we have had a terrible ship ride to the New World so far…We have to eat hardtack and rotten, smelly 3 week old fish. And we have to help the cook in the kitchen. Believe I bet I am the finest cook this ship will ever have, and I am the worst at cooking!
 It has almost been a month out at sea and I can’t wait to see land and hear the sailors shout, “Land ahead.” I do miss Mother and Father dearly though I wish they were here to comfort me…
