Wamp! Wamp!

So we are still on land...it certainly takes patience and a "go with the flow" attitude when you are completely dependent on the weather. (I´m working on the former, while Hannah is getting better about the latter. :) ) Since we couldn´t go out on the boat, a few of the researchers at IBJ presented the details of the research they are working on. It may have actually worked out better this way so that when we do finally get to go out on the research boat we will have a better idea of what everyone´s roles/interests are.

We are getting ready now to meet up with Luciana and this afternoon we are headed to Salvador which is the city south of us that is apparently rich with Afro-Brazilian culture because a lot of the customs and traditions from the slave days are still practiced and represented. Other than that we are crossing our fingers and hoping for "warm feet" (which is the phrase describing good luck for weather and spotting whales).

Tchau!
