Gulliver's Travels
Pages: 145-156

He has been in the country for 2 years and wants to leave. He wants to go to see the sea and because Glumdalclitch is sick, a page takes him. But, the page leaves him in his box unattended and before long, the tide comes in and carries him away to sea. After 2 hours, he is found by Englishmen and is rescued. It's difficult for him to he used to things being normal sized after being surrounded by big things for so long and his wife wants him to stop traveling.

I think Quinbus is going to go on another adventure dispite his wife's request. He does this because he feels that it is his evil destiny. So although he doesn't like it, he still does it. Also, I think he called his voyage unfortunate be issue of how he left and how he has to leave his family and friends for so long.

It was a little difficult to read today because I was slightly distracted by my surroundings and thinking about the exams but after a while I forgot about them and was able to concentrate on the book.
