The captain said Thank you thank you but you have to prepare everything you need so that we dont stay on that island for a long time. Marks father is very worried and you also have to wear heavy clothes so that you can use covers as clothes because we will reach mountains of snow.

Two days passed and the young men the captain and the sailors all felt excited. Raymond was the most cautious among them. He tied the internal maps of the island inside plastic bags to protect them from water if anything unexpected happened. Then he tied those bags to his body and with the appearance of the snow mountains everyone noticed that the engine stopped and the rise The sails were set and the ship nevertheless began to move quickly.

Everyone got up and went to their rooms but
