Dear Diary,
I am so seasick today I can hardly write this. It seems I will never get used to the tossing and rocking of this ship, especially during a storm such as there was last night. I don’t think I got a wink of sleep all night, I was either up sick or clutching the sides of my bed to keep from sliding off. I have not been able to eat anything all morning, and many of my fellow travelers are in the same condition, though I don’t think neither Captain nor Cook mind that much. Rumor is going around that Captain is rather confused about our location and that he says he expected to be much further by now. Food portions have been reduced (though I don’t mind that now) and general morale is about as gloomy as the weather was last night. I think I will now try to get up and see if I can walk about the deck a bit for some fresh air.

you have a wonderful imagination and I felt like I was actually reading something written by one of Columbus's sailors. Can't wait to see what you come up with next. You have talent!
