The day started by walking out the door with rubber boots and windbreakers. We traveled to the Friday Harbor UW Labs<\/a> and embarked on a sea exploration on the Centennial<\/a>. During the ride, we collected shrimp, sea anemones, starfish, and many other species of marine life using two types of troll nets. The first net we used was to collect larger sea life from 60 fathoms (360 feet) and the second was a smaller thinner net made of fine mesh to hold in the microscopic plankton. We arrived at the labs hours later to move the marine invertebrates to a more suitable habitat. We then retired to a grassy knoll to eat our bag lunches. After lunch we enjoyed a scientific diving demonstration by Kevin Turner<\/a> and Tim, then strolled to meet our next instructor Alicia, who taught us about scientific illustrations. We then sketched the marine samples we collected. Dinner was pleasant with the company of Professors Emily Carrington<\/a> and Ken Sebens<\/a>, followed by a presentation about what they do (mussel ecomechanics and underwater ecology).<\/p>\n
