  • Admiral’s Log: Day 6

    In my rush to put down the phone yesterday, because it makes me feel V vomity, I was remiss to mention that Craig is the only one not really feeling any seasickness. At one point or another Beth and Cody each have felt quite terrible. Cody even thought he was about to barf. But, ever Read more
