Well, we're winding to a close here in Kaikoura...super sad. After my first day of Forest Ecology, though, I'm thrilled about what lies in store for the next two weeks. Lots of field research and time in the forest, observing the interdependence of species, not to mention seeing all kinds of critters that only exist here...nowhere else on earth!
Here's a brief low-down of upcoming hightlights:
Wed: AM forest walk, then afternoon whale watch off kaikoura!!! yes please!
Thrus to Wed: travel to and from West Coast of S. Island, through Reefton, past the glaciers (day trip!), eventually Bruce Bay (Hicktown NZ...hehe), then hopefully a long daytrip up to the famous welcome flat hot springs on the copeland valley track, under Mt. Cook!
Thurs on: final presentation prep for Integrated Student Presentations, presented in a community-wide symposium that saturday
following week: debrief week: recap of all we've covered, deep cleaning the convent, final small group activities and trips, etc
that's all for CCSP, folks!
