Even though we had left pretty early, I did not expect to arrive in the nick of time. The good thing was that we had least arrived somewhat on time and got to be with the group. But while we were there at the estuary I had noticed it was a whole lot more tropical than I had initially thought. Not only that it had a lot more life than I had also initially thought, their things such as ducks, swans, lots of spiders as well as vegetation and lots of algae. Cool fact about algae that I did not know until the lesson was that they can dry themselves out. And rehydrate themselves if there is water around of course to survive. Not only that I did not know that they could survive in higher salinity waters than I had thought.

This week we got to go scuba diving, we went to Cimiez, visited Musee Massena and we went to Monaco and went to the oceanographic museum. We went scuba diving in seagrass which is something I have not done before. We got to hold a short-spined sea urchin and I could feel it sticking to my hands. Cimiez and the Massena Museum were beautiful and the gardens looked Nice. Monaco was my favorite part of this week. The ocean view was so pretty. The oceanographic museum was amazing and the moon jellyfish were mesmerizing. I really enjoyed walking around the museum and learning about old fishing patterns.
