Hey you all!
As you heard from yesterday, I was bitten by a snake!!! It certainly wasn’t a pleasant experience and I really thought I would die. Actually, I'm not afraid of snakes, but after this experience at the hospital, I think I'll have a little bit more respect for them. The snake bit me in the leg, luckily, because then we had a little more time to take us to the hospital, but OMG, it swelled up so quickly. When my leg was the largest it was twice the size of the other leg. It was fortunate that AK was there and she immediately got me to the hospital. It was probably the most frightening experience on this trip so far. The leg recovered during the night and today we have been and visited an underwater world here in Guam.

It was absolutely amazing! We walked in tunnels under the water and had all the fish over and around us. It was insanely beautiful and we saw so many different fish. Some of the species we saw was the Green Sea Turtles, Giant Grouper, Sea Jellies, Blacktip Reef Shark and the Zebra Shark. It was really beautiful and we actually ate lunch under the water as well, with the fantastic fish that swam over us. We also saw my favorite snake, or not ;), the Brown Tree Snake. But they are actually very beautiful and because it went well with my leg I still think they are beautiful snakes. It was not really the snake's fault that I walked right where it lay and sunbathed. The day at the underwater land went too fast and we had such an amazing time.//Emma
