Captain’s Log, Day Two

I do not understand the natives’ sense of time. One native now claims to be “almost a teenager.” Yet both natives awaken at the dawning of the new day, which seems unlikely for a teen.
There was anarchy afoot early in the day. The natives resisted swabbing belowdecks. Capt C narrowly avoided a full mutiny, and the subsequent science lesson brought sunshine back into their lives. Recess, math, lunch, and mindfulness apparently tired them because both took a long hammock nap! (Score uninterrupted Captain work time!
Post-nap writing, reading, and piano led to a track training session. The natives were very chatty at dinner.
The day ended with a viewing of some creatures who “bounced here and there and everywhere.” Their energy inspired one native to resist the sweet call of her hammock. The captains fully deserved their Guinness and apple ale.
