“It is bigger than any single ship in the world. I want to go on one of those boats there,” a resident of Rainbow Children’s Home exclaimed.
He was among several children aboard the White Squall II, which was sailing past two cruise ships anchored on the dock.
“Why can’t we go on it without paying?” another student asked about the cruise ship.
Eileen Potter, superintendent of the home, responded, “Go to school, get an education and get a lot of money. Then you could pay for a cruise with you and your children and your family.”
The annual sail has become a tradition for the home, according to the superintendent.
