Day 27: June 25

This week we've been taking turns to volunteer at the South Beach Yacht Club Junior Sailing camp, and today was finally my day! It was also the last day of the first camp (there will be two more this summer), so the Junior Sailors raced to show off the super sailing skills they learned over the past week. I helped with food preparation, and afterward was on the 'Mother Ship' most of the time, watching the young sailors manipulate the sails and... wow. I was very, very impressed by how quickly they had learned! They were darting all over the small cove, changing direction with ease. Of course, there were a few capsizes, but that didn't put a dent in their enthusiasm at all - they used their weight to pull their boats upright, and just went right on sailing! Definitely makes me want to learn how to sail now.
