The Night I Flunked My Field Trip — Henry Winkler; Lin Oliver

Have you ever heard of someone flunking their field trip? I mean field trips are supposed to be fun--they're not something you get graded on, right? Well, wait until you hear my story. You're not going to believe it. My class was going to spend the night on a replica of a tall-masted sailing ship. I was so psyched! Then I got my ship assignment -- Captain's Assistant. That's when the best field trip of the year turned into the worst field trip the year.
