Today was yet another great day on the island. Each day is as good as the last if not better. Today was a non diving day but it was just as packed as one that is. The day started with the same ordinary breakfast and our morning breakdown of the day. Today entailed a invertebrate lab on a beautiful beach and turtle tagging in little dicks bay. The invertebrate lab was what our group started on. This lab started with everyone snorkeling in the water to find creatures of the ocean to bring back to shore and put into tanks of water to observe. On this particular day we caught/captured many beautiful animals such as an octopus, hermit crabs, urchins, shrimp and many more critters. Upon catching these animals we would observe them in the tanks and look up their species and read about their behavior and characteristics. The animals were amazing to look at and interact with especially the octopus it is one of the smartest animals I’ve ever interacted with in my life. After the lab we took a long car ride back to the marina with my main man glen the taxi driver. At the marina we had another lunch of sandwiches and chips. After our brief lunch came the turtle tagging which is always exhausting and fun. Within minutes of getting into the water and searching for turtles
