Still working hard

The tests may be over but you can be sure that our projects will be keeping us busy for the remainder of the time that we have here. After a quick meeting with the professors and TAs it seemed that all of us needed to make preparations before our visit to Ocho Rios, and I know that we are all very excited to see the results of our experiments. So far today I have seen people setting up tanks, building traps, catching fish, taking pictures, discussing projects, and writing proposals.

Despite all of what we still need to do, I know that this group will continue to find more free time to enjoy ourselves in the marine environment we all came here to see. I know for a fact that most of us will be getting more use out of our snorkel and scuba gear than ever before. At least when we do have to work on our projects, we can do it in beautiful weather with an amazing view.
Also, one of the groups decided to name the balloon fish they are using for their project after me. I don’t really know why, for some reason they think of me when they see a fish known for growing to three times its size and stabbing people with spines covering its body.
