Our Final Adventure: Colorado Springs School Day 10

Christiansted, St. Croix, USVI

After a fun night of deckhand olympics (in which C team took first on knots and the pin chase and B team took second, winning the Jumbo set and strike race) we started the day by preparing for our final adventure to St. Croix. We skillfully prepared for the long day ahead of us by partying all night, and then waking up early to our favorite breakfast, pancakes, made by our favorite chef, Ms. Jen. Starting the day off we had no idea the crew had a surprise plan for all of us during our down time called R and R.

Once we finished breakfast, we finished our usual daily chores and got to do a once in a lifetime experience with our watch group. Our surprise was being hooked onto the bowsprit and crawling out to the very tip of the boat. After lunch, we had an all hands muster mid ship shanty time. A little later, we had a mandatory swim/shower call, AND we even got a 7 SECOND FRESH WATER RINSE. We will end our night with the swizzle talent show.

Pictures below show some of the swizzle acts, Sofia tells a joke with no punch line, we fit seven people in the head, and haegan, Chloe, and Landon play riptide.
