Merry Christmas Everyone!

The holidays have arrived! Today the Salish Sea Sailors embarked on a scenic adventure to the San Juan Island lavendar farm. At location, there was quite a bit of frolicking, jaunting, and strolling about the flowers and the bees. Many sights were to be had. Finlee got stung by a bee.

Aside from the farm, the Sailors also visited Community Treasures, a second hand store near Roche Harbor. At said thrift, many interesting pieces of clothing, accesorries, and undergarments were found, and some bought! (not the underwear though, that’s gross). The thrifting was in preparation for our own joy and tonight’s dinner theme: Barbie. With the new Barbie movie out, starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, we decided that the best way to show our appreciation was to have the selected dinner theme. This is the second best option to watching the movie because, as it turns out, the local movie theatre is under construction.

A lot of project time was put to good use today. Many went to Friday Harbor labs, local beaches, or stayed home. Emma patch tested her Fucus (Rockweed) gel samples on various “volunteers” and also used aloe vera as a comparison.

To add on, tonight we had our second presentation night! Some highlights included: The migratory patterns and living habitat of bagels native to North America, our campers as clash royale characters, soaps, fish, and why uncle Iroh from Avatar: The Last Airbender, is the best anime character to exist.

Another great day with the gang. – Salish Sea Sailors OUT (peace)
