Destination Achieved

The 22nd of April

Dear Journal:

WE’VE FINALLY ARRIVED! For the time being, I’m forcing myself to forget why it is we’ve come here and I am instead grateful to finally be off of that boat. For quite some time I am sure I will be telling Rip I want nothing to do with the factory in Iron Bay. Once we get back to Babbage, I do not want to be on the water again until at least next year! Oh, and before I forget the name again, we are now in Ravila. I only had to ask Rip three more times this morning.

Oh! The strangest thing happened when we docked. Far too often when I go somewhere unfamiliar I always think I see a familiar face and am quite mistaken, but that was not the case today. There on the dock appearing a bit disheveled and sans two limbs was none other than a Babbage resident, Kaylee Frye. It seems she had quite the accident out on the sea, so we’ve offered to let her stay with us while we are here and then we will take her back to Babbage later on.

Gratefully on dry land,
~ Orchid
