Everyone has been sitting in the classroom all day, trying to finish up the last parts of Photo IDs, Fish Count, 10 best photos, and transect analysis before our last full day in Jamaica tomorrow. Looking back through my camera for photos from this trip we have to turn in, I’m really glad to have gotten to do everything that’s happened in what felt like a lot longer than 2 weeks. I’ll miss being able to just walk out to the bay after a meal, go snorkeling whenever we feel like we need a break, pet Ginger, and casually go out into the ocean at night even after a long day. Although right now I’m looking forward to finishing the transect analysis, I feel like after it’s done and I’m home I’ll miss eating dinner in the group we’ve spent our time together with while we were here and planning all the things we’ll do tomorrow. Last night I went out on our last night snorkel under the first full moon of the year with Tomato Tegan, Hamburger Hannah, Jello Jordyn, Lime Liana, and Kiwi Kiyani. One of the three flashlights we had died while we were out and we went back in before all of us got lost but I saw a white tripneustes while we were there. Also, we saw a really cool blood moon tonight.

One of my favorite underwater photos I took on this trip.
