Hey y’all!
Today’s we set sail (as best you can do in a motorboat), leaving behind the island vibes of Glover’s Reef Station to start our trip home. I felt a bit sad watching the island disappear from sight, but it was exciting to feel the thrilling speed of the boat as it zoomed across the water!
The plane ride was even more amazing than I remembered and it was amazing to be flying above the world again! It was almost like I was looking down on a miniature play model. Looking at the world through the clouds, I wondered how I would even start to talk to people about my trip. How would I even start?
After touching down in H-town, we hopped on the Rice bus and returned to campus, right where we started this whole adventure exactly two weeks ago. It felt so odd, coming back to school after hiking all around the rainforest and snorkeling along the reefs and I thought about how much I would miss my friends from the class. But I am so glad to be back and I can’t wait to see what adventures lie ahead!
