Today is our last day of classes! Wow, how did that happen? I think we are all ready to be done with class and have a few moments to breath by ourselves before we reconnect on the Corwith Cramer in Puerto Rico! We have learned so so much in our time on shore and for the most part, enjoyed most of it. Our last paper gets turned in tonight (very exciting). I personally can not wait to get on the boat and actually start sailing and learning everything I possibly can about it. I will be coming home tomorrow and will be there until next thursday...so if you want to see me...call, text, email, find me, etc. xoxo

P.S. Here is our "Leaning Tower of Snowman"

We are headed into our last week here! Craziness, our time on shore flew by and I am sure that our time on the boat will go even quicker. Though our group has had its up and downs, we have bonded more than I could ever imagine. We rely on each other and work together so well together. This coming week we have our research proposals due, an oceanography test and a paper due (plus a take home test for nautical science). It is going to be busy, but it's also very exciting because it means we will be out sailing very soon!! We took a walk to the beach yesterday and found some pretty cool shells and a jelly fish! It was a beautiful purple color. The first two pictures are of notebooks that we made out of recycled charts used for piloting. The last photo is what we like to call our "cuddle coral". xoxo, miss you all
