After a well needed good nights sleep, this morning started with a cycle of 4 hands-on labs. In the Plankton lab students got to look at all different types of plankton through microscopes. The invertebrate lab allowed students to touch and view a vast array of sea life. The kids loved this lab!! They participated in an ocean lab where they calculated the salinity, and tested their luck at catching live sea life. The fourth lab is one you will have to ask your child about. But don't be surprised if they tell you that it's a secret:-)
After lunch we were lucky enough to do a second snorkel adventure! We definitely rocked the wetsuits the second time around! The kids were way more comfortable in the water and acted like professional snorkelers.
The night ended with an absolutely gorgeous astronomy hike. We grabbed our flashlights and hiked about 25 minutes up the mountain to be educated about the beautiful night sky. The sky was clear and we could see thousands of stars. The counselors taught the information in such a fun and engaging way that the students were all ears! They had a blast listening and participating in the storytelling time. The kids are now in dreamland resting up for a morning of hands-on labs and a long bus ride home.
I will update before we leave this stunning island:-)
