Q2 Post11

By the time the crew gets to work on Endeavour they find that ther was a huge peice of coral stuck in the hole that it had made. If it had not stayed in the hole, water would have come in at a much faster rate and the ship would have surley sunk. Nich helps around the camp with various chores such as well-digging, foraging for vegetables, and helping Mr. Banks find new plants to record in his books. After the carpenters pronounced Endeavour sea-worthy, it wasn't for several more days until the tide started coming in that they could get her back into the water. On one of Mr. Banks' exploratory trips, they found what they thought was a very starnge creature that was able to walk, or rather jump on two legs (turns out it was a kangaroo). After even more days passed, they were finally able to get Endeavour back up and on the water. Most of the sick are recovering which is cheerful and fils the men with good hope for what is to come. Nich and Tarheto have been learning about the place and growing increasingly knowlegable of the land.
