Palau in photos

Friends, I want to show some of my favorite photos from our trip. As the saying goes, each photo is worth a thousand words!

The water was so clear at one of our study sites, you could barely tell where the sky ended.

Our CBASS rig looks pretty awesome with the lights out!

One of the seaplanes we found was hidden in a limestone cave.

One of the students in our Found Color class said on the first day that he was never 
going to get in the water. This is him two days later, having a blast.

Cas found a nurse shark stuck in a coral at one of our study sites. At first he thought it was dead, but 
when he pulled its tail, it swam off! We're not sure what it was after in the coral, but it was probably 
grateful to be freed! Photo by Cas Grupstra. 

After finishing research one day, we went by a tourist snorkeling site with a lot of soft corals. 
They're so pretty! Photo by Cas Grupstra.
