International Semester Students arrive from NC!
The Everglades welcomed the International Semester students on Monday, November 1st for their 2nd phase. The welcome party included Trish, Julie, Kat, and of course thousands of excited mosquitos!

After arriving in Fort Lauderdale the students headed to Homestead for their Swim test. They all passed swimmingly and headed to Robert is Here.
Sadly, Robert was not there and will not be there until November 3rd for all those interested in knowing. Once arriving in Flamingo, everyone crowded into the bug tent that Julie and Kat so graciously set up.
Pita pizzas eased their tired and hungry bellies. Soon after eating everyone gladly laid their weary heads down for the evening. Visions of dolphins, manatees, and panthers danced in their heads.
Duffle Shuffle commenced the following morning and the students were introduced to their surroundings for the coming weeks. Some were very eager to try out fresh coconut milk and were very creative with ways to extract it. After loading all the gear back into the vehicles, the students were ready to be transported to the put-in.
Everyone was in awe of the beauty of Flamingo! Julie and Kat left the students, Trish, and Jimbo with happy hearts! Good luck semester and we will see you at resupply!
