Norse Life, Tuesday, Period 2
Today, upon entering the Danger Shop, the students would find themselves back on the same stretch of beach as last week, this time with a boat.
"Today, I thought we could go sailing!" Thor greeted his students. "Behold the longship, used by the Vikings for many an exploit!" He began to expound on the ship's many fine qualities, such as its light weight and design, which made it possible to reverse direction without turning the ship around, before handwavily explaining the basics of how to row and maneuver such a ship. "Now, quickly, all aboard and we shall set out upon the sea! Fear not that you shall have to row overmuch; we are guaranteed a fine wind for our sail." By programming, not his powers. That was why they were doing this here instead of on the real beach with a real boat (well, that and the reduced risk of anyone drowning): nothing could get away from him and turn into a summer storm.
