    Living on the caravel was pretty hard, I sleep in a small cabin like I usally do at home. My crew sleeps on mats on the floor on the mainstream ( the deck).Sleeping on the deck helps the crew fall asleep because the oceans sounds.But most of my crew does not even get to sleep much because I assigned some to night duty, so if something goes wrong while we sleep we don't wake up sinking to the bottom of the ocean:First Day Over Seas: January 1,1500: Destination Nagasaki,Japan

    We made it to Nagasaki,Japan and got our sugar. The crew is really tired. Some have barely had any sleep at all, some have had no sleep, some have had alot of sleep, but not for long. We jouneyd through the Artic ocean which was a bad idea because some came down with hypothermia and know we are running low on supplies. We can no longer supply them anything so know we are heading to India for spices gold and some slaves to replace for the ones that can no longer continue on.:Third Day:

    Lisbon, India Second Port
    India. Lisbon is a really old place and really tranquil, but had many stuff to buy and trade. We traded two bags of sugar for three slaves and bought some bread and meat with one bag of gold. we decided to stay at Linbon for the night so that everyon could get some sleep before the long trip too the bahamas.

    My crew had gotten the sleep they need.They all look like they have alot of energy, and they are going to need it because it is going to be the longest trip to the next port. The slaves are doing are doing better then the crew members that they replaced so I decided to let them get sleep an not do the first night watch. When night came a storm hit and we had to hustle and pull the ropes so that we would not get caught up in the tsunami. We barely made it out the ,crew is beaten down and tired.
