Wednesday, October 8, 2008The Survey Has Finally Begun
Today we started working. My shift is 12 midnight to 12 noon, so I slept for a few hours in the afternoon and then worked overnight and into the morning. It is hard to get used to staying up all night. It feels a little like I took an unexpected trip to Europe. Our first haul took the longest to sort out because many of us were learning how things were supposed to work, but after a full day, it started to feel routine.
This is a skate. The black rectangles in the lower picture are the skate egg cases. Have ever found one on a beach? Now you know what it grows into. This is a long horned sculpin. These creatures buzz when you hold them and stick their fins up to scare you off. Amazing! And then there was this fellow. The largest lobster I have ever seen. Can you guess why I'm smiling in the picture? Here is a special shout out to my favorite lobster (and clam) fans, Simon and Nicky Tanenbaum! Would you learn about the lab where we process fish? Click here for a short video. On a personal note, this is a very comfortable ship. Zee and Snuggy will continue to show us around each day. Several of us watched the presidential debate on live satellite TV in the lounge tonight. Here are Snuggy and Zee having a quick meal.
Here is a photo of another ship, The Albatross that is working with us. I'll tell you more about that ship later in the week.

Dear Mr. Tanenbaum,
Boy did Ms. Saverese's class get lucky!!! They came in when your new videoes had posted. We were able to see all the cool animals the nets brought up from the Atlantic Ocean. That lobster looked huge (and delicious)!! Avery wanted to know if you would be able to catch an octupus? Timmy loved the whale video. Is the ship swaying very much? Take care Mr. T.
