Day 2 with Tanner in the BVI
Praise the Lord!

Day 4 with Tanner as we replant coral
The common themes of today: bliss and lucky charms.
From breakfast to dinner and everything in between, each activity was so satisfying and just an extreme joy to be a part of. The morning was peaceful, as finally nothing was in my room to wake me up! No roosters, no lizards, nothing! I woke up on my own terms and...

Day 6/7 with Tanner
"I like toytles"
This quote from a boy on an interview in response to a completely unrelated question about turtles rings through my ears as the group and I embark on our final day in the beautiful Virgin Gorda.
