Land Ho: A day on the beach
The Manticore had anchored within a beautiful cove at a large uncharted island somewhere in the bahamas. The crew was elated to be on land once again after months at sea, and a celebration soon ensued. While the festivities were underway, I chose to leave the rowdy crew to their drinking... choosing more of a quiet recreational activity. I decided instead to enjoy the outdoors with my dog Griswold. After spotting a suitable spot on the beach, the tent was pitched. The sounds of the waves on the rocks had soon lulled me into a sense of bliss. With a glass of fine Port wine in hand, I had said a silent prayer, giving thanks to the Heavens for guiding us safely to land.
