Day 1 (May 9, 2016): Traveling to Bamfield

Today we left Calgary and headed to Bamfield. It was an early morning flight and a long bus ride but we arrived at Bamfield full of energy and excitement. The whole experience so far as exceeded expectations. Delicious dinner, beautiful scenery and a lot of learning!

So far we've learned a little about the geography of the area:

Students looking out on Barkley Sound
Prepared for our field study tomorrow by meeting the invertebrates of the West Coast up close with the touch tanks:
Getting to know our marine species

Checking out the adaptations of sea-stars
And witnessed a beautiful coastal sunset from the main viewing area:

Looking forward to exploring the inter-tidal environment and rain forests tomorrow!
