2015 Week 1

After a fierce monopoly game and a good nights rest, house Lime Tree got up at seven this morning for an exciting day of Scuba. We had cereal, bagels, fruit, and granola bars for breakfast at House Allamander. We went to orientation and met the heads of the Guavaberry office, and they were delightful people. After our meet and...

  

Today our cabin, tamarind, made breakfast for everyone. My roommate Miles made eggs for everyone while I set up the tables and and out food on them. We usually don't get to have eggs for breakfast but Miles used his conversary money to buy some. After breakfast we headed to the marina and prepared for our two dives at...

Like everyday, today started with a hearty breakfast, however, with a little spice... honey buns. After breakfast we headed to the Sea Dragon and went to Ginger Island.

I also met my fantastic diving instructors, Gazz...
