Playing in Palmyra

Last night we arrived at Kingman Reef, just a short transit from Palmyra Atoll. We have our last final push of work here this week and then are headed back to Honolulu. I think everyone is pretty excited for some R&R. While at Palmyra we were lucky enough to be invited to an afternoon cookout by the people who live on the island (from the U.S., mainly Fish and Wildlife folks). The food was amazing, and I spent my 2 hours there mainly at the little platform by the rope swing, reading, watching some serious acrobatics, and swimming. The swing was a blast. The island itself was pretty neat-an old rusted out truck and crashed plane, and even some animal grave stones. Hope you enjoy.
