Log: 19/2

The trainees have been learning the ropes and making a splash on Voyage 911INS! We can confirm that the skies are blue and the water is wet! We had a swell time crossing to Kawau yesterday. Some ups and some downs - a few of us fed the fish! But nobody was salty about it! Finished the day swimmingly with a dip in our 'pool' (the Pacific Ocean!) We had a colourful start to our Tuesday. Spirits buoyed and it's smooth sailing. What's up, you ask? Us!! We are reaching new heights on our mast climb. The small boats are sailing and the crew are happy, with some good-natured gybes happening... the afternoon is running away! We know one thing for sure though... at the end of the day, we're all in the same boat! He waka eke noa.

Ahoy me hearties! Avast, landlubbers! Yo ho ho!

We hope you speak pirate for today's update...Voyage 911INS are old salts now. It's been all hands on deck for these scurvy seadogs. Arrgh! The young buccaneers aboard this jolly ship are setting course to Motuihe today. This shiny morning, we had a dip in the briny. We hoisted the colours and scrubbed the decks - had to get her in ship shape and bristol fashion! But our timbers were shivering and our parrots plotting mutiny! Fortunes favouring, they accepted our parlay and we ventured forth into the day... ashore for some beach games. We scallywags are all good mates now, aye! We've been running a rig and singing shanties all day! Yard swing done - now we're weighing anchor, battening the hatches, and hoisting the iron topsail. Heave, ho! But... shiver me timbers! We are almost at the end of our voyage! Blimey - we can see Tāmaki Makaurau through the spyglass! Scupper that... we are going to enjoy every moment on these high seas. This 'eve we reflect on our voyage. We'll take home our loot of memories and new friends - better than all the doubloons in the coffers! Well, there's ye news mateys... savvy??
