Fri, 25 Feb.
a nice morning, and we headed for the dock. we got there to find out that there was something wrong with the boat :( but we were to wait. so we waited on the dock. finally the boat showed up and we took off. Monica, Abi, Nicole, and Chris were dropped off at the school on the Keyes to play more educational games with the kids. Tim, Julia, Rachel and i went to Turtle Harbor. we all jumped in the water and started looking. Rachel found the first Lionfish. Tim tried, 3 times and missed 3 times. 4 more Lionfish were found and attempts were made .... but none successful. this will take lots of practice.
me trying to kill a Lionfish .... the Lionfish is in the upper left hand corner.
this Parrotfish thought he was hiding from me.
Tim and i being silly in the water.
and a few more underwater photos: Brain Coral.
and Lettuce Coral.
we returned to the 'office' .... visited awhile. i talked to Jenny about my options for getting to Roatan, and she suggested going with Vern. then we were done with our volunteer experience. it was rather anti-climatic .... no group meetings, debriefing, ...nothing. then we headed to town for our last night together. we went to La Tranquila for happy hour and sat up on the top deck over the water.
and watched the sun set. it was a very pretty final sunset.
then we split up. Abi and i walked down towards the public beach and stopped in at Driftwood, where Vern was setting at the bar. so i introduced myself to him and told him i'd be going with him on is catamaran on Sunday ... done. then we went to a little place that i had interviewed the day before. i saw that the lady made ceviche and i wanted some. i think they were closed, but she remembered me and agreed to make some for us. it was wonderful!
we were the only ones there.
then we walked back towards town and stopped at Skid Row and had another drink there.
these guys wanted us to take a picture of them and all the bottles of beer they had drunk. looks like friends i know back home !
then we went back to Tranquila Bar, saw Rachel, had another drink. and then headed for home. but .... the Tree Tanic Bar was on the way, so we stopped in there .... i don't think we ordered any drinks, but i helped her solve the problems of her 'world', ...... being her 'mother figure' :)
finally home, we fell into bed ... still have done no packing ....
