Boat RideBoat RideBoat Ride

Our boat ride to our permanent boats.
This morning we got onto boats that would take us to the other boats which we would be living on for four days. The boat ride was about 2 and a half hours and many people got sick. The boats were the Yolita and the Seaman. I got onto the Seaman which was the nicer of the two. The Yolita apparently smelled of diesel and permanently tilted to one side. Each boat had a crew of about eight. Our professor Tony from U of T was on my boat and our professor from GAIAS, Diego was on the Yolita. The two boats were supposed to stay together the whole trip but on the second or third day the Yolita went in a different direction and so we didn’t have any lectures during the boat trip.
