Nina's diary
It was really foggy and rainy so we had to keep a good watch when we sailed into Bay of Islands. Just like when we left. It was pretty exciting seeing land. Mum was on watch and everybody else was sleeping (since it was 6 am) when she came in shouting Land Ahoy! and waking us all up. So we had breakfast and tidied up the boat. We tied up at the quarantine dock just before lunch. There were a bunch of other boats there so we walked along the dock waiting for the officials to come. When they did we filled out the paperwork and declared all of our stuff. A sniffer dog came on-board and she had cute little shoes. Cool thing was that I got to keep my worm-ridden piece of wood I got in Patagonia. After getting of the Q dock we decided to go for a couple of nights in the marina. We went for a walk (Lucas and I were the first people to step on NZ, the dock doesn't count) and met other Brazilian boat here, Santa Paz. We walked with them to the Coffee shop and Lucas, Clara, Julia and I went to try and find other kid boats. Since we didn't find any, Dad Lucas and I went up to General Store and bought pizza for dinner. I hope Alouette arrives tomorrow.
