Hey Hey All!
I am sorry that I have not updated you with anything about my trip, but I am doing fabulous! The first day I got sick but now I am taking some medicine that the doctor gave me and I am 110% better. Anyways, I have been meeting some really awesome people on the ship and we have been having game night and watching the sun set- absolutely beautiful from the oceanJ It is crazy that I will be in Brazil on Sunday! I then get to travel to Rio de Janeiro with some students from semester at sea as well. There are a lot of people going on the Amazon trip but the more I think about it the happier I am with not picking that one. Apparently everyone swims in the river but it kind of bothers me that scientists still can't identify 30% of what is in that river. No Thank you! (Thanks Mom and Dad for talking me out of it!) The ship is magnificent with two dining halls, library, computer lab, huge union, campus stores, and classrooms. It looks like it was built last month no joke. I am taking some really interesting classes that are cool and when I get to each country I can actually see what I am learning in each country which is amazing. Tomorrow we cross the equator to continue to Salvador, Brazil and it there is a huge past history of boys shaving their head for "Neptune Day." That should be interesting to say the least hehe. Well I hope everyone is well back at home or wherever you may be! I am super happy that I am on this trip and honestly I could not have hoped for anything better. Miss and Love you!!!
Always,
Kristen
