2013 Week 1

Our entire cabin awoke at nearly the same time to our alarms going off. We then prepared for the long day we had ahead of us, excited to know we would be turtle tagging. Once we were ready we went to the Guavaberry entertainment center where we ate a breakfast of poptarts, donuts, and fruit. While...

My hut awoke to the sharp buzzing sound of the alarm clock. Then we all prepared for our short, basic breakfast at the Dive BVI office. At the office everyone ate bread, cereal, poptarts, and a large assortment of fruit. After breakfast the marine biology one group headed out to the Rhone wreckage site on the coast of...

Greetings parents and friends! We had a GREAT day today but it went a bit longer than the others. This is just a quick update - the guys are in bed getting ready for another busy day tomorrow. We got up early and headed to the boats to dive and build the Jesuit reef using the structures they created...

Day two was a great day in the water. Our morning activity was a snorkel at "the baths" where we saw a ton of different fish and a barracuda. The afternoon activity was a very fun dive where we saw a reef shark, sea turtle, lion fish and many more cool fish. The other cool thing about todays...

Waking up this morning was tough, I finally crawled out of bed around 7:20 after much procrastination & I have never made a better decision. After arriving at the cattle gate at 7:45 we were taken over to the harbor for breakfast at the Dive BVI office, thanks to all of Dive BVI for hosting our meal &...

I have never been scuba diving before besides a lake for a scuba certification class but from what i hear its a great experience. Also the way i see it, i can either sit in a science class all semester or go scuba diving at the british virgin islands with my classmates. I am looking forward to seeing some...

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...

We had a great time today with Marine Biology 1! We went to Savannah Bay for a beautiful snorkel and to learn about invertebrates and then headed off to tag turtles! Love Doc
