Days 5 and 6 (sorry, didn’t know these didn’t post)

(Day 5: A "Shark"ing Surprise)Another great day in the BVI, had a great breakfast. Another hearty breakfast and trip with Glen to the boats where we began the two dives for the day. Today, we first went to the Rhone wreck, a natural wreck that happened in the mid to late 1800's during the 2nd biggest hurricane to hit...

Day 7: Ayres, I can’t thank everyone enough

Had a nice sleep in this morning. I got to have the normal breakfast with some massive donuts, like mini cakes. After that, we all packed into Glen's taxi and went down to the water filtration site which sat right on the water front. There, we swept the beach for 2 hours looking for trash to pick up. All...

Day 4: Ayres, “Current” Events

Day 2: Ayres, A Fishy Experience

The early wake up this morning wasn't that bad and I got to have a good start on the day with a pretty rich breakfast of cereal, some power bars, fruits, and bagels. Right after breakfast, we went to our assigned boats and were briefed about what we'd be doing that day. First, we went out to a small...

Day 1: Ayres, Looks Like We Made It

Today, we had a fun day hopping from place to place until we got to Virgin Gorda. The layover at San Juan was about as fun as layovers get and the puddle hopper we took was fun yet slightly cramped, but reaching the BVI made every small nuisance well worth it. Getting through customs didn't take too long and...
