We left really early as we were to reach the departure point by 9 in the morning. We were heading towards Gabriel Island on a Catamaran ride. It was a baby Cruise for 2 hours.  Seven to Eight cruises left one after the other with 40 people on one cruise. Perfect music and a sunny day, it was the perfect time for a sail. The surfs were high and the ride was not smooth at all. The water would come in the ship most of the time. The time was quite long and we were feeling a bit uneasy with the salty water all over us. I guess it was sea-sickness. Above all there was an end which was loose (3 nut bolts were in the air and were about to come out) and I could just imagine the worse. This is how our mind works. I could not see the island till far and when I asked the captain he said we would be sailing for an hour more. My mind started making stories of something happening if that comes out!! How would we reach the island?? The ship go upside down in few minutes, all reminded me of the movie titanic. The movie was one of my best but the difference was there was no Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio) with us. And most of us did not know how to swim. I looked after the small lifeboats and life jackets.

I quietly called the other crew member and asked him if this was fine, nothing much could have been done then but he told me it needed some repair, and it would not make a difference. After we reached the island I told my folks about it and they laughed it out. And they told me that it is not connected to the mast of the ship. I was comforted then. It is a great place to enjoy a day of relaxation and fun on one of the picture-postcard beaches or enjoy swimming and snorkeling in the sea. After spending an amazing time at the island, it was time to head back. We sailed through the crystal clear water of the lagoons; head to the open sea having breath taking scenery all around.
