2013 Week 2

This morning started off very similar to yesterday because we were woken up by a rooster and around 5:45. I got up and made some of the instant coffee that was being sold in the small convenient store (this store runs on the honor code and at the end of the trip you have to pay for everything that...

We flew from DFW to Miami, Miami to San Juan, and San Juan to the BVI. We arrived last night at the airport where we were picked up by Doc and Mr. Kirby who led us to the boat where we met Casey and Jeff. We road on their boat to Virgin Gorda where we went to our cabin,...

1. I chose to partake in Marine Biology because it a unique class that offers once in a lifetime experiences, such as diving in the BVI. Also, marine biology is something that we do not learn too much of throughout school, and because I find it very interesting and fascinating, I want to learn more about it and study...

1) I decided to take this class because some of my friends were taking it, scuba diving in clear ocean waters sounded like a cool experience, and I could knock out one my science credits for senior year. By Studying the ocean we learn about one of if not the most important place in the world that can also help...

Well, these last two days were very eventful and exciting! We woke up on saturday and headed out to jesuit reef, which is located off of virgin Gorda. We were then debriefed on our project and instructed to find fragments of coral and healthy specimens that we could break fragments off of. We then headed back to the boats...

After my forth day in paradise, I am still not used to the 7:30 AM wake up call. I quickly got up from my sleep to stop my alarm clock from ringing and began my journey to the Guavaberry internet cafe for breakfast. Once again, Casey supplied us with another delicious breakfast of donuts, cereal, and fruit. After breakfast,...

Today was another fantastic day. The snorkeling and the diving were both great, the food was great, and the weather was great up until we went to dinner. The day started off with waking up and then going to breakfast at the Guava berry office. After all of us had eaten and been briefed about where we were going...

Today started off around 6:45. I woke up and listened to music for a little bit and got my bag packed and ready for the day. We met up at the gate entrance at 7:45 and walked down to the Internet lounge for breakfast. It was all the same food as yesterday but also large donuts. It was very...

I was woken up at exactly 4:37 to get ready to go to the airport. So, I took a shower, packed up and left my house. To sum it all up I travelled until 4:37 to 9:30. Once we arrived at the lovely resort that goes by Guavaberry, I took a shower and went to bed. The next morning...
