Sailing is the most free, natural feeling in the world. I love the speed, the feel of the wing on my face, the smell of salt in the ocean air, and the sound of the waves crashing against the hull of the boat. I would love to sail around the world! I met my dad at the marina early this morning and I wasn't sure itwould be a good sailing day.
航海的感觉是世界上最自然、最自由自在的。那种速度感、那种风吹在脸上的感觉、大海的空气里混合着盐的味,还有海浪拍打着船身的声音,都深深让我着迷,我好想坐船环游世界!我一大早就和老爸约在小艇码头碰面,不过天气看起来好像不太适合出海。
It was freezing cold and overcast at 7 amwhen we started out and there was a very strong wind. Wind is good for sailing, obviously, but I was worried that it would be too dangerous.
早士一7点出发时冷得要命,天色还暗暗的,风又很大。有风才适合航行,这显而易见,但我担心会不会太危险。
My dad is an experience sailor, however, and I trust his judgment. He said the weather forecast called for perfect sailing weather and it would be great.
老爸是名经验丰富的水手,我相信他的判断。他说既然天气预报说今天天气很适合出海,天气就一定会变好。
And it was! The weather eleared up and was bright and warm by mid-morning. We sailed across the strait and anchored off a little island in a protecter bay. When we got settled my dad made us some cocktails and I made a yummy little platter of cheese and crackers.
果然没错!天真的放晴了,上午十点左右,天空变得既明亮又温暖。我们沿着海峡航行,然后停泊在一座受保护海湾里的小岛。船停了后,老爸弄了些鸡尾酒,我则弄了一小盘好吃的奶酪饼干。
Then we made dinner toghter and nice music and a thousand stars in the big, dark sky. I am so happy I could burst.
接着我们一起做晚餐,然后坐在甲板上,手里拿着一杯酒,又有好听的音乐和大片黑夜里的点点繁星为伴。我开心到了极点。
