OFF THE BOAT!!!!

We made it back safe and sound (and a little sunburnt..)! After we unloaded all the equipment onto the shuttle boat, all the other science groups just watched while me, my boss, and the workers unpacked everrryyything off the boat. I had to climb back on the shuttle to help the one kid on the boat lift the heavy packages off the edge. Apparently lifting heavy packages is only for the workers because all the other scientists were too good to help - even if that meant they would miss their flight....Now we're back on land and finishing up the inventory and other work we could only do on land, and then I get to catch my flight back to the US TOMORROW!!! yayayyayayayaya Over all this cruise was a great success. We found some pretty cool results, I sang the alphabet to everyone on the boat at an end of cruise party, and I learn a lot about this culture. Definitely would do it again....even if it meant I needed to hang out with the cockroaches for another couple of weeks!
