Schonberg Day 5:
Today our first dive was at West Dog Island. We did our expiriment very smoothly and saw an insanely odd fish called a white spotted drum. We also got good results on our experiment and proved our hypothesis. We saw several fairy basslet and a lot of Sargent majors. The next dive we went to a. Oral nursery and...
Day 4 – Competition
I woke up this morning not knowing what to expect. As I approached the breakfast table, I saw honey buns which signified that a great day was approaching. After breakfast, we had a brief break and then headed to the marina. Once aboard, the first stop for the Sea monkey was a Wreck Alley. We then dove down...
Day Two on the Island..
Today I woke up tired, sunburnt, and hungry. A cold shower soothed my sunburn, a box of cereal quenched my appetite, and I was permanently tired throughout the day. It was a short ride to the marina where the boats were ready to set out. Sea Dragon, the boat I am on, went to Ginger Steps. Ginger Steps are...
BVI Day Two 2015

One of the ships was flipped...

We very quickly left the marina because everyone was anxious to dive out at Ginger Island. This dive was the...
Day Five BVI 2015
Today was good. We woke up and after breakfast we started our day with two very shallow dives. They were for our groups project. They went well and my job in the process was keeping track of the time, clanging on my tank when it was time to start and end, and take pictures and video footage of coral,...
Sauer Day 2
Today, I woke up at 7 and got ready for breakfast at 7:30 at the teacher's cabin. Breakfast was light, consisting of cereal and a roll with juice. After breakfast, I walked to the main office of the hotel, where the owner gave us a brief welcome and orientation about the hotel's policies, including using the commissary and the...
Day Three on the Island
Today was another fun filled adventure packed with a two tank dive and a project night snorkel. The two tank dive was at the RMS Rhone. The Rhone was a UK Royal Mail Ship owned by the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company. The boat wrecked off the coast of Salt Island in the British Virgin Islands in October 1867...
