Here are some pictures of our Rock Island trip this past week. It was beautiful out, although some people got thoroughly sunburned because the sun was so bright.

| It was a brilliant, scorching day |
 |
| There are so many islands...some with beaches, some without |
 |
| The endemic Rur flower |
It was kind of a short trip, but we got to have a picnic on the beach, and I explored around the side of an island a little bit and found shells, Rur flowers, and a little cave.
 |
| Fish at "The Cemetery" |
Also got to swim with fish again and I got some good videos of little fish swimming in the coral at the "Cemetery". I wish I could post videos, but might not have enough wifi power.

| Humphead wrasse! They're big and they came close |
 |
| The beautiful tropicbird |
 |
| This is apparently called a White, Fairy, or Angel Tern |
We got to see a lot of things even though we didn't go many places. It gave me a new appreciation for Palau and all it has to offer. It was also a welcome break and we had a lot of fun with everyone (most of the teachers, local and SMs, and some of the dorm kids came). It was a welcome break from school. I'm thankful to God for a relaxing and refreshing vacation--it was just what we needed.

| Riding back as the sun sets |
I'll try to post pictures of our trip to Kayangel soon...
 |
| Until next time... |
