The plane trip back was as cramped as the way there. This time though, I actually managed to sleep for a great part of the flight. I was in the middle of typing this journal and I practically fell asleep while I was typing.The flight was uneventful though, and I got home safe and sound.
Now that I’m back, I’m wondering how I’ll feel tomorrow when I don’t go to the lab and instead I go to work. I think I’ll probably go through "dolphin deprivation" for a while, but hopefully it’ll wear off eventually.
I still can’t believe I’m back though. The two weeks went by SO fast, I can barely even remember what I did in all that time. I suppose that’s why I wrote this journal, so I won’t forget. How can I forget? This has been the greatest experience of my life! It’s almost impossible to put into words just how I feel now. I’m trying to, but it just comes out like a great feeling of accomplishment, of wonder, of amazement, and of joy. I KNOW I’ll be back someday, and I sincerely hope that time comes soon.
Until then, I have 8 and a half hours of video to watch and 270 pictures to look at…. =)
I've never seen an animal so smart and so energetic. You were a blast to be with!
You're the bubble ring queen!
I doubt I'll ever meet an animal with more of a personnality than you, Ellie. I loved playing with you!
Calm, relaxed, and three ladies all to yourself... you're one unique guy Hiapo!
(Pardon the pun...)
