Our Last Day on Station!

I cant believe it has been a month already!

We spent our last day doing the end of month and, end of shift tasks, like taking stock of fuel used, and uploading the water sampling data set.

We also made sure that everything is ready for Kendra, the next Eco-Guardian.

Sharing a space with 1000 + Sea Lions and Seagulls has been an interesting time, and I think it will take me sometime to get used to the silence.

Until next time – Neha and Scott

Weather: Sunny all day, Winds pretty steady around 8knts SE All day
