Getting to know my Squad..

I am about to head west with Capatin John and a very unique group of explorers: 


Heather, an all around great person to be with because she will babysit your children, create new hairstyles, and swim to help us discover new things! She is not so into "new" foods, but could help us save a drowner, or look for new artifacts in the sea. Heather hopes to seek cool entertainment, and collect sketches, and new foods! 

Cam, is a knee slapper, and can put a smile on everyones face, and navigate the ship through the pacific! Not only can he cook, but he can make really yummy pancakes for the whole crew. Cam is looking to discover and see the Pacific Ocean, trek through the California wildflowers, and bring home some interesting rocks and wildlife.

Curtis, an engineer, and avid hunter hopes to shoot arrows, and catch the big one! He can hunt for the crew, and teach others how to make the best shot, or fix stuff. Not only can Curtis hunt and fix things, but he is a musician, and is willing to form a group of guitarists to play at fires! 
Yo Ho Yo Ho an explorers life for me!

Christina, the mother of the pack, will not let the crew down, and will keep herself and others in high spirit! She loves to have fun, and will not leave a crumb left behind. If you have any homework help, or doubts, she is here to help you concentrate and focus. "Hey Christina, can you help me clean of the bow?" says morgan, "I am on my way!" say christina. She is the first to say yes and the last to say no!

Harrison, as the sketcher, and breathtaking artist can help the crew in detail picture things a diffrent way, and teach others this wonderful skill. Harrison can not only draw great looking foods, but he can help cam out in the kitchen with some gourmet Gilman specials! On the way he hopes to collect new herbs and spices, and some moving sketches. "If a picture is worth a thousand words, imagine how much a gourmet meal would be?"

Morgan, your creative industry in arts and music will take us into a whole new world, and teach us many new things. Also if the crew meets head on with a herd of goats or any animal, we will be sure to lean on you to help us through! Morgan being a great gardener, and an avid middle eastern chief, could bring in her new favorite dish, the falafel's! 

Michael, a non quitter, and an all around great friend to be with. When in doubt come to michael, for he will teach you courageousness, and how to work hard! I believe that the motto "work hard; Play hard." ties with Michael's talents. Michael hopes to bring back with him his study of the different cultures, and how they dress.

Sam, as a heavy duty musician, we would love to hear your talent, and you and Curtis could present something together. Also I am so glad that you love to write, and that you keep a journal. With this in mind, you can inforce the crew to blog, and write new stories every day! Sam the scientist, being an inventor is amazing because finding and creating new things can make everything helpful! Sam seeks to discover a new tribe that is Isolated from the world, and learn about them. 

Joe, a motivated and lover to children! His speedy talents can help us on deck and sending messages to one and other. He will help set up tents, explore the land and help heather with the children! Joe hopes to collect postcards.

Dear Captain John...

Dear Captain John,       

During the 4 months traveling 5,000 miles, my talents for the group would be a photographer, you always need one of those to capture every breath taking moment on the sea. Also I LOVE to fish, it doesn't matter to me if we are in heavy seas, or gnarly winds, but I enjoy casting my bait out there, and snagging a winner! Fashion, I really love fashion and if the crew gets trapped inside do to bad weather, I will rip out the runway, and do my magic! So if in need for a keen photographer, a hardy fisherman, or a spontaneous fashion diva, I am here to help you!  


On board to Rediscovery 2009 I am hoping to collect along the way a unique sticker from every port we stop at, to go with my sticker collection at home. Also I would love to take back the pictures that I take of people, places, and things where ever I go. One other item might be a ring from each port, to wear with memory. As you can see I love to collect things, and envy magical memories to share with family and friends. I am really anticipating the future of this 5,000 mile journey!
 
Ahoy,
Sophie
