We got to swim where Johnny Depp swam. I could smell him. I stepped on a crab. I’m so sorry. Don’t wear jeans into the rainforest. You’ll regret it. Time: 08:00 Date: 24 January 2025 Latitude: 15° 34” N Longitude: 61° 28” W Average speed in the last 24 hours: 50 kmh Distance […]
We’re back! After 10 days of semester break, we floaties all came flooding back onto the Alex yesterday afternoon. Because the ship was at anchor, we got to return via pontoon boats, which was a new experience for some of us. It was great to see everyone again, and to meet the five new members […]

Just like in the movie with which the class shares a name, they pulled it off flawlessly and with aplomb. […]
