May 20. 2024 - Second Day

 May 20. 2024-

Second Day was super productive. My day started early around 5:30 and we had a circle time. Were we working with Destry all morning on ways to do our poster. As well as talking about water quality and water quantity and worked on creating blogs. Then we had lunch. After my group and I met with our mentors, once the vehicles arrived we went on a tour. The tour was about a 2-hour hike that led to a lake. There were two small crocodiles and a couple of water-running lizards. Then when we got back to the Centro Batipa we had a little cool time with dinner at 6:00.

May 25, 2024 - Seventh Day

Visited and did a presentation and saw a dance. So we visited the Ngabe tribe. It was so nice and I felt very welcomed. I saw a wonderful dance and ate a nice soup. We visited the medicine garden where it started to rain so much, still, everything was so beautiful. After that all of us completed a Clean Water presentation, where we talked about the importance of clean water and how to store water.

  Boat day and Beach day  So today, Sunday, started very early. Around 7:30. We checked out two beaches today. Swam in the water. The water was so nice and warm. I was able to see crabs and hermit crabs. I also drank out of a coconut for the first time while floating. The first island was nice and relaxing, I swam and then laid on a towel. When we left the first island we got the chance to snorkel. We left for the Last Island were we swam, set up the towels again, went tubing on a hot dog, and then ate lunch there. When leaving it was so hot I got so sunburnt. I saw dolphins and we also saw a huge bird in the sky, its feathers looked like it had two tails. After some research maybe a FrigateBird? But we also broke a seat after hitting a wave.. it was so funny.

"Preliminary" Presentation Day Today was extremely successful. I'm writing this blog around 4:55.  My group today, the "Plant" group, presented our poster on Flora de Batipa. Ebony and Salvador have been such amazing teammates. I slept in a little and that felt amazing. I even posted a few of the photos I took to share with friends. The weather today was hot, but now while writing this, it's extremely windy. I see possible rain coming in tonight. Also, I did an interview with Karolynn. Ate dinner, Went to sleep shortly after.
