Bermuda continued

Hello folks,

Sooooo, woke up this morning and ate a whole mountain of bacon. . It was awesome. The weather today is perfect- sunny, breezy, and what am I doing? I'm sitting in the lab watching my sister scrape zooxanthelli off of her little tube corals and homogenize them. It's great.

**a few hours later**

So, we ended up avoiding lunch at the station that Em works at and heading out to one of the nearby towns, St. Georges, and ate at a nice little restaurant on the water. We also went touring around the local area on the scooter, which stopped 3 times for no apparent reason while we were driving around, causing some frustration. Then Em went back to the lab, began doing work, and then someone was looking for a spare diver and a boat sitter and we quickly abandoned aforementioned work and I sat on a boat in the sun for a few hours while Em cemented coral back to reefs.

However, now on to the more interesting stuff- the evening. We went out for this AMAZING sushi in Hamilton, it was so freaking delicious. Then we headed over to the Pickled Onion, otherwise known as the Purple People Eater, and hung out for a bit there- after realizing the low free drink potential (if you know what I mean), we left. As Em's friend says, "We give birth, we deserve free drinks". :)

So we headed over to a bar called Cairo, and that was SO much fun. Good music, good people, just a really crowded fun place to be. Again, Em and her friend danced up a storm, turning heads in every direction, while I stood to the side with the guys and with the very definate statement of "my hips do NOT move like that". We were out until about 130 I think, but the weather was perfect at night and the breeze right off the water was awesome.

Peace.
