This morning, Shanley woke me up at 6:30 am, and we studied for our physical oceanography quiz over coffee. At 7:15, I woke the rest of the people up with a Queen song- You’re my best friend. All through breakfast, we studied our notes and quizzed each other. After clean-up, we took our quiz, which wasn’t all that bad, and watched a quick oceanography video on ocean currents. After class, Lauren, Alex, Annie, and I went ashore to take a freshwater shower- it was God sent. After defunkifying ourselves, Alex and I went on an epic shopping adventure. However, we quickly found out that we could not afford most of the things we wanted. After lunch, we went back to the boat, took naps, and wrote in our journals. Around 3:30, Alex, Shanley, and I went back to shore and went to Quicksilver, where we purchased watches, shorts, and shoes. After spending more money than we should have, we went next door and got ice cream, which was delicious! We then headed back to the boat and had a quick fo’c’s’le sesh until dinner. Dinner was very exciting because we actually got to eat fresh vegetables like broccoli (which was a pretty big deal). After dinner, we cleaned up, and Jack and Kris got all dressed up for their sushi date because they had the day off (slackers). After clean-up, we had an OCE class where we watched a surfing movie in preparation for our epic surf day tomorrow! Overall, it was another outstanding day in the Caribbean. P.S. Hi Ellie :]
