write a diary about an insane adventure
Answers
Answer:
I had always wanted to sail in an old traditional ketch type sailing ship around Cape Horn. After months of planning, my
journey began. The highlight of the adventure was the rounding of the Cape. Here is an extract from my diaries:
Day 20. 11.30 am Cape Horn
It is 11.30 in the morning and we have finally arrived at Cape Horn. This is the stretch of sea which joins the Atlantic to the
Pacific Ocean. The waves are at one moment towering above me and then the next we’re flung high up with a smooth
powerful energy onto the crest, at that very moment I caught a glimpse of the Cape itself. A huge grey mass of unforgiving
stone, appearing like a dark shrouded demon through the rain and the spray. My friend and crew member Paul is suffering
terribly with his stomach. I tried to direct his attention to the Cape but he is being violently sick over the side. I’ve never felt so
scared in my life as I cling to my harness and brace the buffeting in every direction, drenched by wave after wave and drinking
in nothing but salt. I feel like an unwelcome guest in a strange world, not helped by me trying to take a picture just now and
having my camera snatched from my hand and flung over the side by fearsome watery fingers! And yet, although I’d been told
again and again that this is the most dangerous stretch of waters in the world, I feel an odd sensation of calm power deep
inside. Despite everything, I’ve overcome my fear and I’ve actually done it. From the days when I first looked at maps at school
I had wanted this adventure. Now I am here I feel proud of my own courage. There may not be a photo to show when I get
home, but the image of all this will be scarred into my mind for ever.

Background
I had always wanted to sail in an old traditional ketch type sailing ship around Cape Horn. After months of planning, my
journey began. The highlight of the adventure was the rounding of the Cape. Here is an extract from my diaries:

Part 2
Here are some important features of a diary entry:
1. It starts with a date and perhaps a place.
2. It is written in the first person as in ‘I’ or ‘We’.
3. It recounts events in a logical order.
4. It will include, at times, how the writer feels.
5. It may include some descriptions of what is seen or experienced.
6. The tense of the writing is very often in the present.
Part 3
Have a go at writing your own travel diary entry. It may include excitement and adventure or it may include a straightforward
description of a visit somewhere. If you want help starting, use the ideas below which you may then continue with. Try to
include some of the features from the list.
Possible scenarios:
1. Antarctica
Day 20. 9 am. I emerge from my warm cabin into the frozen crisp air and see a sight which leaves me stunned . . . Hundreds of
penguins, looking like men in evening suits slowly waddle towards the icy cold ocean . . . CONTINUE.
2. Deep sea trawler fishing
Day 2. Midnight. Why did I agree to go on this crazy ‘adventure holiday’? I love fishing but this is ridiculous! We’re hauling in a
massive catch and the fish are squirming about all over the place. I’ve never seen so many fish. The captain has told me to keep
clear of the chains. The storm is so fierce that sometimes you feel like you’re in a lift as you’re pushed suddenly up and then
dropped down.
3. Paris
Perhaps visiting with friends and having a good time seeing the sights.
4. Egypt
A trip down the Nile and a visit to the Pyramids.
5. Australia
A journey through the ‘outback’.
