This morning I got waken up from a little German leader whispering by my tent "Sara, Sara, are you coming to morning survey?" Once I came to and realized what time it was, I had to quickly get ready and jump in the car so we could head to the beach. Unfortunately no eggs were found...BUT I did get to see my first turtle tracks and egg chamber which was neat. I didn't expect the prints to be so obvious in the sand, especially with all the obstruction of tourists on the beach. Survey was pretty cool however the whole getting up at 5 am thing will without a doubt get annoying very soon.
Justine (French student), Crazy girl and myself went into town before dinner to do a little shopping, and pick up some bread for dinner. While in town I looked for some places to get my hair cut when the sales lady in the shop called one of her friends to see if she was available to cut my hair, which she was. I then walked down the street to a near by church where I got picked up on a vespa by this Greek girl named Anna. We went around the corner to her house where I got my hair cut and styled for 10 euro! Anna was really cool and spoke decent English so we got to talk about her life in Greece, where I should travel and how crazy I was for working with the sea turtles and NOT getting paid. Most Greek people find it absolutely absurd that I would work without pay, and even more astonishing to them is that I pay to come. hah while I was getting my cut in probably one of the most random places I thought to myself... how do I get myself into these odd situations? The answer to that is who really cares! I got a nice cheap haircut, made a new Greek friend and got my first vespa ride.
The rest of tonight is devoted to celebrating Louis' birthday. Who is another French volunteer, I feel like I am in a mini France since the English are really out numbered by French students. We are now at 10 French students to 4 English! No but seriously, because as I type this blog I have 3 of them sitting in front of me going off en Francais. MERDE!
