Recap

So Tuesday we were in Old San Juan, which was a lot of fun. Before we left, I couldn't find my wallet and had to leave without it.

As soon as we arrived, the group split up and went separate directions. Nicole, Diana, Rose, Ashley, and I had a fabulous time. Diana is the best person to be with as she knows the city better than everyone. We went on a walking tour of Old San Juan.
El Castillo de San Felipe de Morro - It juts out into the entrance of the San Juan Bay.
Cuartel de Ballajá or Ballajá Barracks housed Spanish troops during the 1800s and later was the quarters for American soldiers after the Spanish-American War. The second floor is now a museum.
La Casa Blanca is a museum of Puerto Rico's founding family.
La Capilla del Cristo is the oldest governor's mansion in the western hemisphere and has housed 170 governors of Puerto Rico.
La Plazuela de La Rogativa is a sculpture that shows a procession of faithful catholics holding torches and crosses aloft.
Raíces Fountain is lovely too.
Castillo de San Cristóbal is the largest of the San Juan Forts.

We also visited an apartment that Diana stays at sometimes in Suan Juan. I loved it!
We went to Ben and Jerry's, which is half owned by Michelle Campi, an ex-olympian gymnast, which was really cool for me.
We also met Vilma at a cute restaurant.
Back on the bus to El Verde, dinner, worked on our quizzes, and then bed.

Yesterday, which was Wednesday, we had a stat lesson in the morning and then began our field practical. Dom, Jelly, Lynn, and I explored soil infiltration. We had to propose a hypothesis, collect data, and make a powerpoint of our report in two days, which had some stressful moments. We filmed some of the process, which turned out to be very funny and we incorporated some of the footage into our slideshow. We had a BBQ last night really late, stared at the stars, watched some LOST, and then bed.

Today, we put together the powerpoint and then everyone presented with their groups.

Some people from Texas found my wallet and now its being sent to Vilma's parents house here! Yay! Too bad I already cancelled both the credit cards... Oh well. At least I don't have to get a new license.

Tomorrow is the bioluminescent bay. That'll be cool.
