Safe Arrival in the Florida Keys!

Hello to everyone back at home! Our bus ride, plane trip, and van trip down to the keys on Thursday were all smooth sailing. After being driven to Pearson Airport in the morning by Derrick Rempel, we zipped through baggage claim and security and before we knew it we were up in the air! We arrived at Miami airport and quickly rented 2 big vans and started our 1.5 hour drive south. We stopped to get fresh fruit smoothies at a delicious fruit stand called Robert is Here, and ate dinner. By 7pm we had arrived at J.N. Roth Marine Biology Station and got settled in to our house on stilts! Last night we caught a scorpion fish (google it) right out by our dock! Today, Friday March 8th, we are headed to the Keys Marine Lab. We are being taken out on 2 boats on the Atlantic side of the keys and we will be snorkeling at Alligator Reef! We'll keep you posted!!!! Here's a picture of the scorpion fish that we caught..and then set free!
