Location: Underway to Borneo
After just about two days underway, we arrived at the head of the Kumai River! Early tomorrow morning, we will set off on riverboats to spend the night in the jungle and hopefully see some orangutans and crocodiles. Today we viewed Blue Planet during OCB after a lecture on the open ocean. Then we were put on the spot during SLD with 1 minute of “how to’s,” where we were given a slip of paper with action and had to teach the rest of the class how to do that activity in a minute. For instance, we learned how to headbang, how to moonwalk, and how to roll our Rs. An hour before dinner, we were all hands on deck, fully outfitted in our foul weather (luckily, it never rained, but we were ready!), geared and striking the sails in preparation for entering the river. After a delicious dinner, we are all back to work, keeping a vigilant watch on boat traffic as we near land and prepare to anchor later in the evening. So ends this day.
