Things I learned today in the Bahamas:
- the sun actually does come out
- gas is $4.70 per gallon
- the number one income for the economy is tourism, second is offshore banking (no sales tax and low property tax, etc.)
- the cruise is going to be absolutely awesome!
- 733 students and about 300 staff, crew, and lifelong learners
- 70% women, 30% men
- students from 8 countries

Wow. I can't believe that you are doing semester at sea. I looked at it today and was debating on whether or not to apply for it.
That's a strange gender ratio. Where are all the men?
Hmm...only 30%? Not great odds but on the bright side, it's much more than MCC!
Miss you a lot. Was very sad last night about you being gone. The Duke can confirm that if necessary.
Hey, Becca! I am a girl in Mr. Schulteis's class and I think it's really cool what you are doing, and it sound's really fun. I can't believe the price for gas in the Bahamas, though!
I am a girl in Mr. Schultei's room. My name is Kendall. The shark picture is very cool! I like the one with the pointy nose! Your trips sound like a lot of fun. It is cool that you are taking classes on the ship too and then you get to travel around the world while you are still in school! That is really cool.
