I am on a large ship bobbing in an ocean storm at night. They are worried about the ship sinking, and are trying to stretch a large tarp attached to the side of a ship to a dock to secure it and keep it from capsizing. I am swimming in the cold ocean desperately trying to secure this tarp and stabilize the boat. In another part there are a group of surfers that are dangerously surfing in stormy weather without any safety gear. The waves would send them flying away from their boards and we were worried someone was going to drown.
After this I am in choir class again with the kids that I took a course in Scotland with. We are trying to sing the US national anthem and I am trying desperately to keep my bass part but everyone is singing out of key and it sounds terrible. We decide to try it a 2nd time with MG playing a flute to back up the voices. She is trying to signal time with her hand but again it sounds terrible and we eventually just give up singing.
Additional Comments:
This dream was recalled in a hostel in Edinburgh, Scotland, the night before I flew back to Indiana. I had spent three weeks in Scotland and had seen many boats and some surfers.

Last nights dream was very long and cohesive. For the majority of it, I was in an old town that
seemed to be on the Oregon coast, maybe on a bay. My family had a house, but at times it was my
sister's apartment. The place we had overlooked the bay and the downtown of the old town we lived
in. looking out the back window, there was a bay of water, some trees, and a very distant ocean. But
standing on the back deck and looking to the right, there were small old stone monuments built up
and a large freeway bridge. The monuments seemed to be built in the median between the two lanes of
traffic. They were built with white bricks, possibly limestone. Some were about the size of a truck,
and it was apparent that these had been around for quite some time. Water was present on all sides
of these monuments, making them a white stone island in a dark black sea. Cars were driving by, and
it was clear that the water was only a couple inches deep close to our house, as well as close to
the monuments. There was a road underneath the water. The room we were in was very large with lots
of windows. At one point, my mother and I went outside and sat on the deck. There were stadium style
seats, and we had a path leading from our room to a fireplace outside. I wanted to light the
fireplace, but couldn't figure out how. Then apparently the fireplace was shared with our neighbor,
who also had railed stairway path from their house to it. Our neighbor lit the fireplace in a very
strange way, and several other people were there sitting in tiers behind us just overlooking the
river/bay. It seems like it was dark.
At one point I was in "the room under the stairs" at my old house, only it was much larger. There
were boxes of baseball cards kept high in the room for storage.
Toward the end of the dream, I didn't like where I was for some reason. I ended up leaving the room
and finding the elevator. There were two elevators, both with their doors closing. In one, four
pretty girls got in, in the other four guys. I hit the button for the elevator the girls got in as
it was closing and got in. Upon getting in the elevator, things were different. I knew I was in the
Hilton Hotel, but I didn't have a room. I looked up and saw a video camera above me. I didn't know
what floor to push, since I wasn't actually staying there. I pushed some buttons, but apparently
they were the wrong ones, and the girls in the elevator pushed the button for their floor, which
seems like it was floor 12. After they got off, the elevator became very large. There were chairs in
it, and across the elevator there were two employees riding and giving me strange looks. One of the
girls stayed on and asked the employees, who were dressed like airline stewardesses, if she could
ride for a bit longer. They seemed annoyed but said yes.
Additional Comments:
My family and I took a trip to Oregon at the end of this summer, and stayed in a little lodge right
on the ocean, although it didnt look like this.
The cars driving through very shallow water reminds me of jetskiing down a river, which is something
we did while in Oregon and staying at an old friends house.
The elevators in the Hilton, when we stayed in them in Daytona Beach, required a key swipe to press
the right buttons, and since I wasn't staying there in my dream, that might explain my confusion.
There was a lot more to this dream but I forgot much of it upon awakening.
