Palmyra Atoll

Got to get on land! Was a lovely hour of sitting on the beach. We are now transiting back to Honolulu, in some rocking seas, but the excitement of getting in makes it all OK.

Ah, Tisa's...

Only three things were allowed at this table-girls, margaritas, and pina colidas. OK, we let the boys join eventually. One last night out before we get back out and start working.

Tutuila Sunset Last Night

We are back out at sea, working around American Samoa (the island is named Tutuila) until Sunday night. Last night in the midst of doing CTDs I got a treat-this sunset. Of course I was running around working so this is a stolen photo! Thanks to Ben for a great shot.
