Starting the morning off with another refreshing, ice-cold shower, I had another slice of pizza and Apple Jacks. After retrieving our gear, we left the huts to go to the boats. Next, we left to go to the first dive site at the backside of Ginger Island. When I originally jumped in my secondary regulator started spewing my finite supply of air. Before even descending I was left with 2200 psi instead of the original 3000. When the rest of my group jumped in , we immediately went down and started to run the experiment. Our experiment is to see if the diameter of a sea sponge impacts the flow rate of the water through the sponge. We used syringes filled with dyes to be able to see the filtration speeds. We would measure the sponges, and then we would countdown to squeeze the dye and to start a stopwatch. After doing this to four sponges, a curious shark came out of nowhere. I tried to swim after it, but could not keep up with the millions of years of evolution. After ascending to surface, we moved to the next dive site called Cistern Point at Cooper Island. After discussing our plan, we went down again and went to the sponges and continued running our experiments. After the dive, Captain Rupert let us jump off the second floor of the boat. Driving back to the harbor, I was cooked by the magnificent fireball 93 million miles away. Next we had lunch at a local restaurant. Next, we hiked up to the Baths National Park. It was formed when two different rock types are forced together and displaced up to the surface because of the difference in densities. One of the rocks had a small cave about one foot in diameter and about 15 feet up above the ground. Whoever through a rock in it first got to have dinner first. Sure enough on my first attempt, I through it straight in. After the hike, we snorkeled back to the Guavaberry private beach and had a delicious spaghetti dinner, where I got it first . After dinner, almost everyone went back to the beach and played ultimate frisbee.
