1. Mittags waren die Wellen wie Berge. Unser Schiff ging hoch und runter, hoch und runter. Wasser krachte ĂŒber das Deck. Einmal, zweimal dachten wir, unser Anker hĂ€tte sich gelöst. Der KapitĂ€n befahl, einen weiteren Anker zu werfen. Jetzt hielten uns zwei Anker.
At noon
were
the waves
like
mountains.
Our ship
went
up
and
down,
up
and
down.
Water
crashed
over
the deck.
Once,
twice
thought
we,
our anchor
had
come loose.
The captain
ordered,
another anchor
to
drop.
Now
held
us
two
anchors.
