I'm not sure as to the wisdom of bringing flies and mosquitoes on board. Sleeping is almost impossible with those damn mosquitos constantly buzzing in my ears! The flies get everywhere, including in our food. I reckon that thousands of years from now people will remember the name 'Noah' every time a fly lands in their soup! The animal mess is the biggest problem though - the flies are all over it! I really must think of a way to get rid of it all. I guess I can just dump it over the side... anywhere is fine, just as long as it's nowhere near where we will end up.
