School Days

We took samples of the ocean floor (38 metres down) near the cod pens. The mud closer to the pens really stunk compared to the mud taken from the middle of the ocean.
A picture from shore looking back towards town. I think it may have been raining in town again.
We stopped by some cod pens and I got to hold my very first, real live cod! Each pen contains about 180 tons of fish!
Me in my oversized rain/fishing gear before leaving on a field trip. The university owns a little fishing boat (not the one I'm standing in front of) and often takes students out in the Eyjafjordur to see what they are studying first hand.
