Shipwrecked

Ten thousand thundering typhoons said Captain Haddock as they sailed into a huge storm.  There may not have been ten thousand but just one of these typhoons but it was enough to shipwreck Tintin, Captain Haddock and the dogs.  They were only a few days sailing off the Island of Waimorakiratutu too.  It had taken them a little longer as they had detoured to drop the pirates off to the Thompson twins which was just as well because I don't think there would have been room on this tiny atoll for all of them.

Well here they all are arguing about ways to get off the Island.  Tintin had suggested building a raft.  What with said the dogs - a bone and one palm tree?  Honestly, I wonder about Tintin you know.

Truth be told they were not too far off the regular shipping lanes so I expect a passing freighter will pick them up soon enough.
