Holiday means Tv and Tv means superb movies!!
I watched an Australian history-'Mary Bryant',the girl from Botany Bay..
Mary Bryant is a convict who was sent to the Australian Penal Colony and one of the escapees who lived to tell their story;sailing through the sea route all the way to Kupang,Timor.The fledging colony can't seem to hold a good future to her children survival,fleeing from there was seen as the best way.Her husband,William Bryant and her children,Charlotte and Emmanuel with 7 other men planned their escape with care.They stole the governor's ship and sailed all the way north,from Sydney to Timor,a distance in 3,250 miles in just under ten weeks.This journey is utterly an eye-opener for me..They sailed in a small boat through the ocean..with a toddler and a baby!Imagine,they had insufficient access to food and water..a remark from Captain Watkin Tench proved their bravery in search for freedom;"I confess that I never looked at these people," he wrote, "without pity and astonishment. They had miscarried in a heroic struggle for liberty; after having combated every hardship, and conquered every difficulty ... I could not but reflect with admiration, at the strange combination of circumstances which had again brought us together, to baffle human foresight, and confound human speculation."
This is one great history that every should watch.Lots of things that we have nowadays ar far more better than theirs..but of course,we're not prisoners in jail.I think even the prisoner locked behind the bars deserved to watch this,not to motivate them to escape,but more to an inspiration to themselves maybe.They deserve a 2nd chance..(But up to what they have done kot..)Lesson here:Don't get yourself into one of those penitentiary!Awful!
