Sandy Hook

Hey everyone reads this. This is Erin. We have just left Sandy Hook. There was not much there. They had a little town, but they had no beach!!!! There was one across the way, but no beach at Sandy Hook. We played tennis in Sandy Hook. We did our first over night motor sail. It is called off shore sailing in natical terms. It was a great night to do it. The moon was full. I had to be careful the whale wolves might have gotten me. We got to stay up very late and eat popcorn! At Sandy Hook we had gotten a huge bag of popcorn. We ate only a little bit of it. It is different in the ocean. The waves are real long and big. I got ocean sick. During the first part of our 24 hour motor sail we drug a line behind us to catch fish. We caught 2 fish within an hour. It was so cool. If some of you were wondering in New York what it was like on the double decker bus well we were very high. We had to duck for traffic lights!
