2013 Week 1

Yesterday was a two tank dive for coral replant the first dive we went and collected coral and the second dive we worked with marine two guys to set the coral up for growth. The afternoon consisted of a short snorkel because we went to mass in the afternoon. This was a very cool mass and also intresting because...

The day first began when both roosters and sharp, bright bursts of sunlight awoke both me and one of my roommates. Whom then proceeded to prepare for the day by putting on sunscreen and packing scuba gear. Next we headed to a restaurant via a taxi. There we ate a breakfast of eggs, ham,...

Today was thoroughly packed, yet one of the best days I've had this year; There were a lot of firsts for me as well. This morning I woke up to the sound of a Rooster, which was definitely a first. The morning came very fast, but the crow of the rooster was just a symbol that today would not...

Today, I woke up on my own (I know your proud, Mom). My cabin mates and I headed to the office to eat, but then we realized it wasn't there and ran back to the meeting place. We ate at the docks today, with donuts, cereal, yogurt, and coffee. After breakfast we headed to Salt Island, and we dove...

Today we started off with a double tank dive at the Rhone. The Rhone is a sunken ship that has turned into a dive site with all sorts of marine organisms. When we first got down there we saw all sorts of fish and one of the coolest things i saw was a group of 13 squid who let...

I woke up at 6 a.m. because of an obnoxious bird outside of my window. I went to our kitchen and brewed some Folger's columbian coffee for the cabin and sat at the table looking out the patio to the ocean. After everyone got up around 7:15 we all chilled at the kitchen table drinking coffee until about...

I woke up at 7:00 a.m. from the crow of a rooster and a ray of sunlight in my eyes. I was exhausted from the prior day of travel. As I walked into the kitchen I looked out the porch and was able to see the ocean and other British Virgin Islands. Everyone in the cabin got up and...

I didn't think this trip could get any better, but it really did today. Despite the rain, today managed to be phenomenal. This morning we woke up at 7 as usual. In our cabin we made coffee to wake up. It's really surprising how good Folger's tastes when you're tired. After completely waking up with my coffee, my cabin...

My day began similar to most, however there was no annoying chicken making terrible noises outside of our doors in the morning. Already in a good mood due to undisturbed sleep, I rose out of my bed and grabbed a cup of Andrew's coffee (this has now become a morning tradition at our house). Me and Jackson had a...
