[tri-wings] Jen home early

well all this talk about sending kids away reminded me that Jen came home early 
from her sailing adventure.  She was meant to sail into Sydney Harbour next 
Monday April 2nd but on Tuesday night we got a phone call from the ship's 
captain to say that Jenny was not complying with requests and that she was 
being rude to the crew and the others on board and that she would be put off 
the ship in Sydney on Wednesday.  Needless to say we were quite disappointed 
and I was distraught thinking that it was a very negative thing to happen.  
Anyway David got a phone call on Wednesday morning about 10am from her saying 
"I don't know what to do and I have no money!" (keep in mind that Sydney is 3.5 
hours drive away from us) Both David and I were working and couldn't go to pick 
her up (I have next week off and we were all going down on Monday to watch her 
come in) anyway I knew that there is a coach company that comes straight from 
Central Station in Sydney to the roundabout down the road so Jen had a loong 
walk ahead of her from Garden Island dock to Central no money for food and a 
long wait for the bus.  She got home about 4:30pm yesterday afternoon and told 
us that the last few days of the voyage the weather had deteriorated and she 
was seasick and homesick and did not feel like doing anything.  She spoke quite 
positively about the others on board and most of the crew (she had a bit of a 
personality clash with the sailing master) and did enjoy herself for most of 
the time.  So not entirely the negative experience that I had imagined and was 
so distraught about.
Don't worry about the world coming to an end tomorrow it's already tomorrow in 
Australia
