This weekend we got to go to Aaron’s house for dinner on Saturday and Sunday we went to the beach. I fell in love with Aaron’s dog she is an Australian Shepperd and a big lover. It was nice to get to sit down with Aaron and his family and enjoy a meal together. When we went to the beach some people saw a grey whale while they were kayaking and snorkeling. It was nice to get one last beach day in before we leave. I wish I was going home for two weeks and then coming back to work with Aaron and Julie for the rest of the year. Next week we have our farewell potluck and leave on Saturday. It’s a bitter sweet moment, but we will have to make the most of our last week at OIMB. I have finished my poster and am really excited for when we get to start printing on Wednesday. I finished collecting and analyzing my data from my experiment. To ensure even light distribution Hannah and I had to work in the enviormental room. It is very cold in there, but it was worth it to make sure my crabs weren’t drawn to one point of light. My hypothesis was right and the crabs had a preference for the control pH of 7.8 over the experimental pH of 7.4. I’m really excited to be done running trials, but I will miss working with everyone. Hannah and I start to take down everything we had set up for our experiments this week. It will be sad to see everything come down and know it’s really over. Hopefully we can squeeze in a few more adventures before we leave. I have three roles of film left that I need to use this week and I want to make sure I get at least one picture of everyone.
