Crossing the Atlantic Ocean
Crossing the Atlantic Ocean
I said goodbye to my family before I went on a journey. They wanted me to come back home as soon as possible.
This journey was hard for me but I knew I needed to go. When I decided to go on my journey, everybody except my family and friends were laughing at me and saying that there was no reason to do it. Finally, I set out with my two friends Ivo and Marko. I took a lot of food and water. We were sailing and the sun was shining. My friend Ivo was in charge of the boat and my friend Marko and me were helping him.While I was sleeping, I heard some strange noise in the boat. I woke up and saw my dog. I was very surprised. Then I woke up my friends and asked them what to do with the dog. They told me to keep him. The boat was sailing slowly and we were crossing the Atlantic Ocean for fifteen days. Suddenly it started raining. The storm was coming but we got ready. When it began, we went below the deck and strapped ourselves to the beds and waited for the storm to pass. The boat wasn't stabile. My friend Ivo caught a bad cold so we didn't sleep for two days. Finally the storm was over and Ivo got better so we continued sailing. Unfortunately, the dog died because we didn't have time to take care of him. Before reaching our destination we saw a lot of sea animals like dolphins, sharks and a lot of beautiful kinds of fish. While sailing a lot of sharks surrounded us. I was scared but they swam away. The sharks damaged the boat so it started sinking. We jumped overboard. We were in the sea waiting for somebody to help us. We were waiting for six hours when we finally saw a boat coming in our direction. We were saved. A lot of people were waiting for us at the port. I gave an interview to the local newspaper and told them everything about our adventure at sea.
