April 18th, 2009

Today was a fun and interesting day. We were at the beach here in Great Inagua, in the Bahamas for a couple hours working on our journals. Some of us went snorkeling to see the big coral reef and got to see many different kinds of fish in the clear blue water of the Bahamas. We also got to take a nap in the hot sun with the sun just beaming at us. Me and my fellow classmates made a sand castle while we were there and also made a mermaid out of one of my friends. We had a great time at the beach. Colin are tour guide brought us some fresh water to rinse off with after getting in the saltwater and had also brought nice refreshing cold water bottles in a cooler which knocked us off our feet. While at the beach we also were picking up shells to take back home to made good use of them some of as frame outlining. After leaving the beach we also got the opportunity to go into the Morton Salt Factory and see where it comes from and how it’s being washed and put into their sizes and piles. They’re all different sizes some very big and some medium and small size but not extremely small as were use to seeing. However we also got to pack some of 3 sizes for us to take home. Many of us are excited to show are parents and use it for our meals at home. Once we were all done exploring the factory we were brought some conch fritters by Colin which was really good delicious with some Bahamaian style sauce .
