Late in the evening, an ancient dance was performed to the sea gods

In hopes it would bring a successful journey at sea  the next day

At times, they were without the necessary tools of their endeavors…

But in the end, they had the greatest story of brave exploration, amazing new friends, and memories to last a lifetime.
