All of this is up in the air.

I'm sure by now everyone is on some sort of transport or at home. We had a great time. We split up yesterday but shared our experiences from the day over dinner. Some cool sessions and other activities. I spent a good portion of my day at the New Orleans Zoo. A good friend of mine is an animal trainer at the zoo and got me some unbelievable access to the zoo. I interacted with quite a few animals as well as their trainers. It was really great to see what these trainers and scientists do at their job. I also networked with a fellow that runs a watershed/beayou protection group through his school that his 8th grade students more or less run. He seems like a great teacher and he had 30 students volunteering their time to work at the zoo on a beautiful Saturday afternoon! I got to meet this guy and his family up close.
This sea lion planted a really fishy kiss on my cheek.
