Tik's Cabin: Day 3
The third day we didn't really do much, but Enej went sailing with Tik. It looks really cool and it's too bad I didn't get to try it.
Enej and Tik getting ready to sail.
Hopping into the boat...
And sail!
After that we just played scrabble and had a late lunch. I came in last in scrabble (damn it!) I guess it doesn't really have that much to do with your ability to spell. You just have to play with the rules because sometimes you get the most points with the fewest letters.
After lunch Enej and Dima went canoeing around the entire island, and they actually got a pretty good hang of it this time around. I went with Tik and Kelsey to see them try out the water skate. Kelsey got it after a few tries, and of course Tik succeeded on his first...
Look at Kelsey go!
The weather got pretty cloudy and chilly and it actually rained a bit, so we all came in and sat by the fire. We played Trivial Persuit and I came in last, again... Damn it I hate that game! I felt like such a stupid moron who had no common knowledge at all (sorry I didn't grow up here or learn the nursery rhyme that tells you how many reindeers pull Santa's sleigh!) I didn't not know the answers to 99.9% of the questions! It's called trivia for a reason!
After the game we had dinner and then we had to get ready for the ferry. I was sad to leave but was also glad to go home at the same time... I missed electric power, my shower, and real toilets... But overall the weekend had been fun and I had a blast! Tik's parents were very nice and hospitable, and I think I might actually be able to start a fire and "properly" roast a marshmallow now. (I'll have to work on driving a motor boat and chopping and sawing wood among other things...)
One last look at paradise!
