Marine biology day 1 Percy
Today I woke up at four in the morning in order to get on the first flight. Ironically this would be the first airplane I would ever ride on. When I got on the plane as "childish" as this may be was fascinated with the idea of being over 3000 feet in the air, not to mention how beautiful...
