I arrived back to the states yesterday evening, and I miss the turtles already. I learned and experienced so many new things during my visit: Cultural experiences, environmental experiences, and even social experiences. It was truly the opportunity of a lifetime for me and I enjoyed every moment. I hope to meet with the GDS 6th graders (i.e. the ones I initially presented to) this coming week to discuss the survey results as well as to talk to them about the sea turtles! My final presentation in my high school career will be on this upcoming Friday from 1:00 to 1:45, and I cannot wait to wrap up all of the components for sharing. As I mentioned in my twitter posts, on my last day I netted one turtle, it weighed just about 10 pounds, a little guy. My total turtles caught and tagged were 16. But, we had many more collectively with my supervisor, who will be sending me all the turtle information (i.e. weight, measurements, tag #'s, and any notes) from my time there. Again, if there are any questions you have for me, feel free to post a comment or come see my final presentation! Thanks for following :) I will hopefully update again after my final presentation to the GDS 6th graders.
