Day 34 and 35 - July 30th and 31st

Well, I know I said that my internship was officially over, but I still was able to do stuff yesterday and today. On Sunday I went to the Sheraton for the last time and taught SCUBA lessons. As usually it was pretty fun and we had some nice people.

Sunday night I went into town with Heather for the last few souvenirs I hadn't picked up and we had a grand time walking around. Later we got take out and went home and ate, watched some TV then made a TON (think giant baking sheet full from elementary school) of rice crispie treats, delicious! It was definately a great way to wind down the internship and a fun night.

This morning when I was expecting to sleep in, get up pack and burn off my DVD then wait a bit and go to the airport I had a surprise. I got to go on Dolphin Ohana one last time!!!! And boy it was a great time. We didn't find the dolphins until way further north so we saw them in a section that was pretty shallow, between 20-60 feet which allowed us to get closer to them. However it meant a lot of getting in and out of the boat because they weren't relaxing and swimming around one area like the other times. We saw lots of dolphin, including two babies, an octopus, an eagle ray and I saw a peacock flounder! So it was a great last trip and a good way to end the internship.

Its hard to believe I leave in about a half an hour for the airport, this whole experience has gone by way to quickly. I will definately miss being here and I am so glad I got a chance to be a part of the Dolphin Dreams Internship. I think the only thing that makes me look forward to leaving is getting away from all the mosquitos! (and of course seeing family and friends). :o)
