16 Jan PM – Duct Tape Reliability

Recently in my time in Jamaica, we have begun working on our research projects. Mine excitedly is on my favorite sea creature so far, Tripneustes ventricosus (West Indian Sea Egg). My partner and I are going to be measuring the abundance of Sea Eggs from the distance from the reef crest to the shoreline. Aside from that yesterday we went to Dunn River Falls and we also went to Ocho Rios. Before heading to the waterfall, I looked down at my shoes and got told by one of our instructors that there was a high possibility that they might fall off. I decided to create a sturdy old fashion strap on my shoe, the Duct Tape. I duct taped my sandals to my foot, hoping that it would work. It in fact did, and it lasted 2 climbs of the waterfall before it ripped. I even climbed up the harder side of the falls. It may be old fashioned, but I have to say duct tape is the fast reliable way to go.
