After a relatively poor night's sleep (thanks to riots and violent bickering..... please don't ask) we awoke to resumed camaraderie and began to gather data in the reefs. I counted about 20 damselfish, 17 blue tangs, about 80 silversides, and about 19 gobies. I also saw some parrotfish, a type of fish which I previously did not know existed. We then embarked on the most exhausting 0.3 mile hike I have ever experienced. I have gone backpacking in the New Mexican desert, but the bright colors, oven-like heat, and humidity made me feel like taking a nap. We were finally rewarded by a relaxing siesta in a beach that WASN'T covered in deadly fire coral and sea urchins. I got to swim with some pelicans!
Now, I must confess that it was ME who, um, borrowed the extra fan yesterday. My cabin was severely lacking an adequate cooling system, so, after the other cabin's blatant refusal to lend us a single fan, I decided to take matters into my own hands.
I pretended to go to the bathroom before supper yesterday, and after I "finished", I quickly sprinted through the door of the other cabin, made sure that it was, in fact, unoccupied, snatched a window fan, and exited the back door to sprint behind the cabins towards my own. The next part was a bit challenging, as my cabin was right next to the dining hall, but I somehow managed to nonchalantly smuggle the fan inside, and joined dinner. I felt like such a ninja I was almost disappointed when no one discovered that it was ME who completed this impossible mission, thus this confession.
