Last day at CEDO :(
This morning we got up and headed to Vina Del Mar to check out some more of the rocky intertidal zone while the tide was low for our last time. This area was different than the rocky intertidal we had visited the other day at Mi Playa. There were big boulder rocks there and no sand; kind of like what we see at the Salt River in AZ, and there were more creatures from the different zones that could be found under rocks with each other because the area was more vertical . I had a lot of fun with the peeps, as usual, looking for creatures underneath the rocks, and I got a picture of myself with a Brittle Star crawling up my stomach, a video of a Chiton moving like a armored tank on my hand, and a picture of a baby Sun Star on my shoulder. Very cool. After that little adventure we came back to the base to get ready for our Quiz we took today, and I believe we all aced it! Then after having somewhat of a laid back day we headed to dinner where I got to eat fresh clams, in the shell still, and tried some of Vero's Garlic Butter Octopus, so delish! I have learned so much being here, and have loved being around the culture. I sure will miss all my Puerto Penasco peeps, but I know we will all be keeping in touch, amazing bonds have been made, and within only a week, wow, it doesn't seem like it's already come and gone. Well it has come to that time when we must all say goodbye, and go back
to reality! Very bittersweet for us all. Tomorrow morning were headed
home! :) :(
