13:45
So I woke only about 1 hour ago, decided after my alarm went off to skip
breakfast as well as snack as I presumed it wouldn't be so good today (and was
luckily right). I have just taken a shower and am now back in the game.
23:00
I helped out in the Hermit Crab Olympics (the 100 cm event) with Adria and then
took photos of Ca doing the hermit crab pull event to test their strength. The other hermit crab team looking at size
and shell selection found a pregnant hermit crab bearing eggs so I got photos
of her too, as well as the sea cucumbers again.

Following
afternoon snack I sat in one of the new hammocks and saw a female Manakin
(bird) whilst the rest of the fish people went out for fish observations.
Dinner
was incredible today, the cooks gave me some chocolate cake from the
administrators party they had attended on the East side of the park in the
other station. I drew again with Kat before introducing people to the card game
called Slam (different to Spit, and Kat earned the nickname k-tard). Adrie and
Adria had ganged up on me during some matches but it was all fun and games. I
saw Ca getting his hair cut by Kat, then we staff discussed plans for the
Malpais trip tomorrow - quite exciting unlike this relatively boring day.
