    First Day of Voyage

    First Day of Voyage
    A date marking the first day of our extensive journey. We are 24 hours into the longful trip and still no one has cracked into our food. The ship I've been located on is holding up well. The rest of the crew seem to be energized and eager for exploration.

    5th Day at Sea

    5th Day at Sea
    It has been 5 days since we set off, and other sailors are already becoming ill. Not only are they already catching diseases and such, but also mentally the men are out of it. We are doing well on food supply, although we all are tired of it already. The Hardtack has taken 3 of my teeth.

    Today was a very eventful day. Two sailors were caugth taking extra food, and thrown off the ship. Two other sailors got into an argument, then started to beat eachother. Later, the two sailors were also kicked from the ship.

    4th Entry at Sea

    Today we have officially lost half of our men. No, not all of them have died, but have gone mentally insane. A man through 5 days of food off of the ship yesterday. I have no idea how we are going to survive, it's time to dump some more sailors.

    Fourth Port
    A disease was picked up in Tillburg. None of us knew what was going on until 5 men dropped dead last night. We have stopped in Stad. Hopefully we can find some medicine to cure the 5 others who have it

    Fifth and Final Port

    Fifth and Final Port
    The disease was put down and only 2 others died in the process. We decided to restock one more time in Haarleem. While there, the natives gave us a better and safer way home then planned. We will continue our journey home tomorrow.
