'That was our first adventure of the trip. Would you like to hear about another one?'
'Sure would,' I said.
'OK,' said Roger. 'Let's meet here tomorrow, and I'll tell about our sailing into the harbor.'
Snug Harbor
Today was Roger's turn, sailing into Snug Harbor.
Roger spread a map of the island to help follow the stories.
After the dolphins leave, we go forward to Snow White's bow. We watch the shoreline slip by as we near the harbor entrance.
We're sailing east around Singalong Point. The sea is choppy as the breeze picks up.
We go aft to the stern. We're helping Dad and Mother do all the things that are important when a sailboat enters a harbor.
Dad gives Suzanne and me important jobs: the port and starboard watch. Suzanne has the port side and I have starboard. In sailing talk the 'port' side is on the left when you're facing the bow or forward, and 'starboard,' is on the right, also when you're facing forward.
