Hey yins guys! So... where did I leave off.... OK. So yesterday, we packed up and got ready to move from Maya Center. We had a wonderful going away breakfast. They even cut flowers for our table and put out a nice tablecloth. Then, we went shopping at the Women’s Cooperative, where we got hand-made gifts. They are really cool. Then, we went to a hot sauce factory. The mango chutney was really good! We left and then drove to a dock. Then we had to say bye to Juan, our awesome ninja guide. It was so sad! We boarded a boat and sailed to Tobacco Caye. It’s so beautiful! There are tons of conch shells. We moved into the cutest colorful cabins, and then tried on snorkel gear. We went out and tested our gear. We saw starfish, fish, two stingrays, and crabs. Then, most of us tried to do flips off the dock. I didn’t do too well. I’ll gain momentum off the dock, jump, and chicken out. I sort of end up belly flopping. That’s OK. I’ll end up doing it. We have also adopted the island volleyball court and we play volleyball, nuke ‘em, and tips. There’s also a bar where we order drinks (non-alcoholic, of course). We also spend hours just laying on hammocks. It’s so relaxing! Today, we went on an all-day snorkeling trip. We went to a beautiful reef, also the middle of the ocean, a mangrove forest, and snorkeled by mangroves. (Don’t worry, Mama, I took lots of underwater pictures). We came back and relaxed till dinner. Now, I’m about to go learn about coral. Tomorrow, we are conducting experiments.
‘Kay, love ya, Ich liebe Dich, miss ya,
