A smooth trip down through Organpipe national monument, away from the clouds and rain of Arizona to the sun and beaches of Mexico. We got settled at CEDO and even had some time left for some impromptu tidepooling where we found the object seen in the picture. Who can guess what it is??
Most students are now sleeping under the stars in the deck and getting a little sleep before we head out for the low tide tomorrow morning where other discoveries await.
