Lab Day



I have just realized I have a little less than three weeks here. Wow! It has gone by fast. I am trying hard to plan time for everything I would still like to do. We shall see if I am able to do it all.
Today was a lab day. It was long and boring. I entered data in all day then went through it to find mistakes. I had a few typos due to dyslexic moments but overall it was pretty accurate. I also went through the data to find all the plants we need to re-identify to make sure we have them correct in the data. The plants all had "?" with them showing we were not very confident in our first opinion. The list turn out longer than we had thought it would be, but it is not too horrible.
Oh yesterday I forgot to tell you that I was the one to spot a lot of the Inga we found. It felt good to do that. Socializing with the people here is fun. We had an interesting conversation about popsicles, interesting language differences, and debating measurement systems.  Last night T enjoyed watching Harry Potter. We ended up watching the fourth one because M and I debated on a nerd fact which I was right. I was also able to take some cool pictures.  I hope you enjoy them!
