Short quip about the ship!

Not much time! Here are some pics and I'll see ya in 6 weeks!

The Interim: My stay at Emily Elizabeth's

This is Emily Elizabeth's house. Gorgeous, I know. And the inside is even better.

The T. V. room

Her moms office. 

Her living room with all of our stuff in it!

The beautiful room where I stayed (I suck at making beds!)

Another angle of the room. 

Me enjoying a hard cider in the T. V. room. Comfiest couches of my life!

Snuggled with Rosie. I am happy despite what this picture shows...

This is Emily Elizabeth's dog, Rosie, on their twice daily walk up and down the road.  

The woods around her house are just amazing; very Fall-esque, I love it. 

Adventures in shopping! Yesterday was so much fun!!

And this is the coffee she made for me this morning. Pumpkin spice coffee with foam and a little heart in the foam, can you see it?

Stay tuned because another very exciting and last minute post is on the way! 

Au revoir

To start, I apologize for not holding up my end of the bargain. I was supposed to apprise you all of my happenings while here at SEA and now I find myself boarding a ship in less than four days. A lot has happened in my six weeks here. I've made a lot of friends and had a lot of fun; oh and I've managed to learn a few things too. But as the shore component comes to an end I find myself getting sad, simply knowing that I will never again live with these 8 people in this capacity again. I really enjoyed living with this big group and getting to know everyone, maybe I learned a little too much, but that's a part of being roommates. 

As sad as I am to be leaving, my adventure is just beginning. I cannot wait for the sea component of this program and to start my research!! 

I promise to post some pictures of the ship when I see it on Saturday. Au revoir!
