Those of you who read this blog when I first published each post will know I had a mishap with my phone containing the final day’s notes. I thought I would fill you in on that day’s events.

It was early on the morning we were due to drive back to Orlando to catch our flight , myself and another student had discussed the night before getting up early to see the sunrise on canoes. We did this, after having successfully navigated the mangroves with little to no mishaps over previous days we were confident we would be fine and for the most part we were, we indeed did see a beautiful sunrise and were also treated to the sight of a dolphin while we were there.

On return to the Vesta Station we were help up by the low tide and kept running aground this caused us to rush and take more risks, with the mad dash back we unfortunately collided with another canoe which to our great misfortune caused our canoe to capsize throwing myself and Dan into the brackish waters. On both our persons were our valuables as we were packed to return back to the UK, so my phone and my camera both went for a swim.

Neither device came out unscathed my camera lens being destroyed and my phone totally written off.

To top it all off I had to journey home in wet clothes.
