2014 Seabase trip

Little delay in our flights

Storm delays our flight

Saturday

The crews return back to the Brinton Center.  We stow our gear and take a well deserved shower.  Some of the scouts decided they wanted to want until we return to BWI to share the wealth.   When we get in they would like the parents to guess which three scouts have not showered.

 I can tell you we are still trying to get the Munson off of us!

The evening was spent having a Luau and Island Games, which consisted of Jamaican Tug of War, the Polynesian Drum game, and Limbo.

Closing Ceremony

Do I really need to explain these????

 A human sacrifice was selected for the Crab Master. 

We are still looking for his remains



Friday

Last full day at our Island Getaway!   We spend the morning doing a SCENE project and King of the Dock.  The SCENE project was different for each crew but included collecting trash from the island, and collecting firewood for tonight's closing ceremony.

The afternoon was spent snorkeling at Looe Key which also included some "Party Barge" games.  The kids enjoyed this the most!

Thursday

Deep Sea Fishing

Fishing was good for all of the crews.  Dinner was all of the fresh caught fish!  Each crew member prepared their fish in a different manner.   We did not go hungry this night.

Island Tour.  The island mates took the crews for a walk around the island.  This included going to the Salt Flats, Tasting several plants including the Sea Pickle.  The kids will fill you in when they return.

Extra food draft.
   Troop 712 ended up with an extra container of food items for the pantry.  The Island Mates decided to have a draft of these food items so each crew could make a main dish at dinner time to share with each other.  The Mates made a Birthday cake for Steve.   Happy Birthday Steve!!!!
