Boating Break

Today, Tuesday, March 22, was a beautiful day here on the island. After 48 hours of 45 mph wind we got the payoff!!! And it happened to be the day that we had planned to take the children from school five minutes down the road to the Castle Grounds to sail some boats they'd each made at home.

Here we go...

Students receiving instructions from Linda, teacher of the younger class.

They'd let their boats go in this little cement stream...

follow them down a ways...

run back up and try again.

All of the boats floated and it was a really good time. We went to the playground after that for a bit and then we were all exhausted and ready to go back for lunch!
