It was a gloomy day. a stormy wind (blow) when i (go) on board the ship at three in the afternoon. i (unpack) my luggage and (not pay) any attention to the weather. i (notice) that we (be) late and later on i (find) out that it (take)us two hours to start on the voyage. so when we (reach) the open sea, huge waves (rise). the ship (throw) about like a toy on the huge waves. i (have) to stay on deck to help the sailors. i was afraid i (can) (wash) overboard. it was the worst storm i ever {see).
