Voyage 4 July 16-22                                    Chaperone Abby Keene

Update: All is going very well..the 2 Croatian boy's 6'9 and 6' 5 area adapting well.  The Capt. keeps saying , "Boy are they tall!"  Dinner last night was chicken alfredo and this morning the students had cereal and pancakes.  All seem to be getting along well.

The Tabor Boy bus left Marion at approximately 9:20AM.  With only a pick up of three students at Portland Airport, the bus arrived Camden at 3:30PM.  The Wayfarer launch transported the students and their gear out to the vessel anchored in the outer harbor.  Once the students were on board (4:04 PM), they were given a tour by the student crew.  Monday morning, prior to departure, safety procedures will be discussed.  The vessel is due  to depart Camden Monday at approx. 11 AM.  The schedule for the week is as follows.  (Please note it is subject to change):

Monday: Depart 11AM head to Wreck Island/Stonington where the students will do intertidal work.
Tuesday: Go to Mt. Desert Island; hike Acadia Mt and swim in Echo Lake.
Wednesday: Depart for Bar Harbor. Time and dinner ashore.
Thursday: Sail to Mackerel Cove, Swans Island.  Visit old printing press still in operation.
Friday: Return to Camden in afternoon.  Spend short time ashore.

Oceanographic work is done throughout the week with a test given on Friday.  If anyone has any questions during the week please don't hesitate to call 9-3PM  508-748-2000 x 2219.  My email is lgeil@taboracademy.org.  Have a great week!  Leslie Geil
