Big storm #2

As you can see on the picture below, we had some waves of around 4 meters, and this on a Sunday, a free day. So Shark took us to the city and drove around with us with the taxi which is extremely cheap(1 yuan per kilometer). He brought us to a computer hall where he wanted to show us his CS skills (shooter game) which was also extremely cheap (2yuan per hour)...



On Monday the weather became better but there were still some pretty big waves. So we couldn't sail with the newly arrived group. Wath we did instead was: Take three mooring lines, knot them together and then tie one end to the OP and the other end to your rib. Take the sail out of the OP and tug it around. Like this they can learn how their rudder works en they can get used to the sea.


With the afternoon group we held a regatta with two legs and one final leg.



They al performed very good but there can only be one the winner.

Today we have seen the knots with the morning group and we learnt them to swim. We even had a competition in swimming.


With the afternoon group we made a big tour and they had some great fun .








Tonight we went to eat some bbq with the friends of our host Zou Qing (our host) and we ate some chick (not very good).
