Pteropod dissection

Waking up was hard, but I am glad made it to the lecture which was very interesting.

More lab work for me, I finished “dissecting” all the pteropods for the DNA extraction and took all the photos of the filters for microbial counts! As yesterday, the microscopy was fun!

We have made good progress on counting the cells in our slides and tomorrow we will be able to not work. Tomorrow is officially a day off in the course! Most of us are planning on going out for a hike to the castle rock. I am hoping the weather will be clear tomorrow. If all goes as planned my group should be flying to the ice edge on Tuesday or so!

Some people get really creative with the decoration of their doors here!
