Charlotte Doyle's Diary

Mr. Grummage, who works for my father, acted as my escort and brought me to the Seahawk. The two families I was supposed to meet were not there. I’m not sure what to do. I’ll be the only woman on the ship! There’s no doubt this will be the worst time of my life. I’m not sure if I should run away screaming or just try to tolerate them. I feel awful. I don’t know if I’m seasick or homesick. All I know is that I feel awful.
