Today was not too exciting... at all. I'm just writing to keep my mama updated and happy :]
We had a meeting last night to go over some more scheduling details, but it turned into a bonding fest. We were all starting to get so excited for the trip, we were just blurting things out and learning new things about Dr. G. Such as how he met his wife. Or the fact that Palauans have awkward ways of communication, such as staring at you, raising eyebrows slightly, or blinking slowly as a way of saying "hi." That's not creepy at all...
Today it was so cloudy when I woke up, it felt like I was walking through a cloud. There was no rain falling from the sky, yet I felt water droplets covering my bare arms, and everything looked moist. We had a quiz which was really more of a super basic worksheet to make sure we know the very basics about coral reefs and the history of Guam. Ex: who was the first explorer on Guam? Magellan. Bam. +1
We have been lazing around and packing up our gear to leave soon. Tonight we head back to L.A. and stay in a Marriott at LAX, where we are allowed to order room service for dinner, paid for by 'SC. Sweet!
We leave via Continental Airlines tomorrow morning around 9:30 A.M., two hour layover in Hawaii (Oahu), then off to Guam! Soooooooooo excited to get going. Talk to ya in two days (thanks to the date line), B
