Saying goodbye

Our last full day on the island was extremely bittersweet. It was very sad to think that our time here has come to an end but we absolutely made the most out of our last day. We started off with an early breakfast and then a trip out to the outer reef for a snorkel. We took lots of videos as the colors of the corals there were absolutely astounding. When we got back to shore my group and I began rehearsing for our final presentation of our research project later that day. We finished tweaking our project around noon and after lunch I headed out to a short hiking path on the island to take some more photos of the island and the many birds that inhabit it. When I got back we headed out snorkeling for the last time and I made a promise that I wouldn’t get out of the water until I had hit the trifecta of seeing a turtle, stingray, and a shark. I was very lucky at the last moment to have a huge black tip reef shark zoom past me in the shallow waters to complete my goal. We headed in for dinner and afterwards presented our research to the group. We had a very sarcastic award ceremony put on by our professors after the presentation called the heronees, very similar to Dunder Miflins Dundees. The award I received was the chippendale award for the man who is most likely to be found with his shirt off, and I’m not even mad. We then ended the night watching that stars and enjoying our last night on the beach.
